Trilo
TrelloWhy teams choose Trilo over Trello
Trello gives you great boards but nothing else. Your team still needs Slack, Zoom, Notion, and Calendly. Trilo has kanban boards plus everything else in one workspace.
TL;DR
Trello is a simple kanban tool but requires Power-Ups and external apps for real work. Trilo includes kanban boards plus chat, video, docs, calendar, and AI coworkers. Choose Trello for standalone kanban. Choose Trilo for kanban inside a complete workspace.

A deeper look at the features that matter.
A Complete Workspace, Not Just Boards
Trello gives you cards on a board. For everything else, you bolt on Power-Ups or subscribe to other tools. Trilo includes kanban boards alongside chat, video calls, docs, spreadsheets, whiteboards, and a full calendar, all in one workspace.
AI Teammates Instead of Rule-Based Bots
Trello's Butler automates card movements with if-then rules. Trilo's AI coworkers are autonomous agents that join conversations, transcribe meetings, create tasks from discussions, and keep your projects moving without manual rules.
Communication Built In
Trello has no messaging. Teams end up using Slack alongside Trello, paying for two tools and switching between them constantly. Trilo includes real-time chat with infinite threading and video calls, so your conversations live with your work.
