# Trello

> Kanban boards with an inbox, planner and built-in automation

Trello organizes work as cards in lists on a board. An Inbox captures to-dos from email and chat tools, and a Planner syncs a calendar so cards can be scheduled into focus time. Automation and Power-Ups extend boards, while extra views such as calendar, timeline and table come with the Premium plan. Trello is an Atlassian product.
