TaskWise is a browser task board with kanban columns, a calendar and a timer per task, and its home page calls it free. But the site has no pricing, about or terms page, it runs in the browser only, and it doesn't say where your tasks are stored. - **Value for money: A.** The site describes it as free and lists no paid plan, so nothing is charged on record. The catch is that the claim rests on the home page alone. - **Free plan and trial: A.** No plan, trial or card is mentioned anywhere, and the whole app is described as free. - **Features: C.** Board, calendar, checklists, tags, priorities and time tracking against an estimate. The listing shows no sharing, recurring tasks or integrations, so the basics have gaps. - **Ease of use: C.** A board you build yourself, column by column, with nothing on record about a tutorial or templates. No store rating exists to go on. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only. No desktop or phone app is listed, and no integrations. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 98 of the 133 other to-do list apps we grade. - You could make: Tasks, kanban boards, calendar, time tracking and Markdown: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
