What Makes It Different?
Unlike every other app builder on the market, Genesis doesn't start with empty templates or generic forms. Instead, it reaches into your existing workspace DNA.
Everything you've already built, all your projects, AI agents, automations, documents, and accumulated knowledge, is used as the living foundation for your app.
✅ Your projects become the app's memory.
✅ Your AI agents become the app's intelligence.
✅ Your automations become the app's execution layer.
✅ Your documents become the app's knowledge.
Human DNA contains genetic instructions for life, your workspace contains digital instructions for your apps. That means every app you create is unique.
The Tree of Life
At the core of every Genesis app lies a revolutionary architecture we call the Tree of Life — a continuous cycle of three interconnected systems that never stops learning.
Living organisms have integrated systems that constantly communicate:
Nervous system detects → Brain processes → Muscles execute →
Senses gather new info → Back to brain → Cycle continues
Remove any part: organism becomes mechanical, reactive, dead.
Genesis apps are built on three DNA strands that create the Living Trinity.
In Genesis, "Memory" means living context — information that:
Maintains relationships between data points
Accumulates meaning over time
Actively participates in intelligence
Provides context to other systems
What Genesis creates when you build an app:
App Type | Memory Structure |
Customer Feedback | • Feedback database with rating fields • Resolution history |
Booking System | • Appointment database |
Inventory Management | • Product database |
Intelligence means AI agents that do far more than answer questions. These are:
Persistent teammates that never reset
Continuously learning systems that accumulate expertise
Context-aware assistants that understand your business
Decision makers that reason, not just retrieve
What Genesis creates when you build an app:
App Type | Agent Intelligence |
Real Estate Portal | 🎓 Trained on: • Property listings • Market data • Client preferences • Neighborhood information
⚡️ Capabilities: Property matching Market trend analysis • Client qualification • Tour scheduling optimization |
Healthcare Patient Management | 🎓 Trained on: • Appointment types • Provider schedules • Insurance policies • Treatment protocols
⚡️ Capabilities: • Symptom triage • Appointment routing • Insurance verification • Follow-up coordination |
E-Learning Course Platform | 🎓 Trained on: • Course content • Student performance data • Learning paths • Assessment results
⚡️ Capabilities: • Personalized recommendations • Progress tracking • Content difficulty adjustment • Study plan generation |
Execution means intelligent automation workflows that serve as your app's nervous system — the reflexes and responses that make your application reactive and alive.
Event detection across your entire system
AI-powered processing with agent decisions
Multi-step orchestration of complex processes
Integration across 100+ external tools
Adaptive execution that learns from outcomes
What Genesis creates when you build an app:
App Type | Automation Workflows Created |
Booking System | • Confirmation Flow:
→ Form submitted → Check availability → Process payment → Send confirmation email → Create calendar event → Update availability |
Customer Feedback | • Alert Workflow:
→ Low rating received → Agent analyzes severity → Slack alert to manager → Create follow-up task → Log to database |
Inventory Management | • Reorder Trigger:
→ Stock below threshold → Agent calculates optimal quantity → Email supplier with details → Post Slack alert → Create purchase order → Track delivery |
Creating New Memory
Every action generates results that flow back into your project databases.
🤖 When an automation runs, it writes structured data back to your projects.
🔄 Your AI agents connected to projects automatically inherit new information.
🧬 Your living workspace gets smarter every time people interact with your apps.
🧠 Self-reinforcing system: automations capture real-world data (customer responses, transaction outcomes, task completions, support chats), write it to projects, and agents immediately have access to this expanded memory.
What is used as memory:
Action Type | Memory Created | Workspace Learns |
Email Sent | • Delivery status • Open/click tracking • Response captured • Time to reply | • Best email timing • Effective templates • Response prediction • Subject optimization |
Payment Processed | • Transaction record • Receipt generated • Payment method used | • Conversion rates • Optimal pricing • Payment preferences |
Task Completed | • Completion time • Who completed it • Outcome captured • Effort logged | • Time estimation • Team performance • Bottleneck identification • Process optimization |
Customer Interaction | • Feedback stored • Sentiment analyzed • Follow-up scheduled • Satisfaction tracked | • Customer patterns • Issue resolution • Retention factors • Churn prediction |
This feedback loop makes everything smarter:
Workflows that succeed more often get reinforced.
Workflows that fail get adjusted.
Timing gets optimized based on outcomes.
Decision points improve from real-world results.
EVE: The Unified Intelligence
EVE is the central AI system that powers everything in Taskade. It's the living consciousness that connects Memory, Intelligence, and Action into a unified whole.
When you interact with Taskade, EVE:
Reads your entire workspace DNA (projects, agents, automations, files).
Understands holistic context across all three pillars.
Makes decisions about what to generate or how to respond.
Learns continuously from every interaction and outcome.
EVE's & Workspace DNA
EVE is what makes the three DNA strands work together as a living system:
DNA Strand | How EVE Powers It |
Memory (Projects) | • Indexes and understands project data • Extracts patterns and relationships • Generates structured databases • Maintains semantic connections |
Intelligence (Agents) | • Trains custom agents on knowledge • Routes queries to relevant models • Provides context-aware responses • Enables multi-agent collaboration |
Action (Automations) | • Interprets automation triggers • Makes conditional decisions • Generates dynamic content • Captures and structures results |
The Bicameral Mind
The concept of the bicameral mind — where ancient humans heard one part of their brain as an external "voice" guiding their actions — is the foundation of EVE.
EVE represents a modern bicameral partnership: not two hemispheres within one brain, but human consciousness working in symbiosis with AI awareness.
When you describe what to build, you're engaging in a cognitive partnership:
Your mind:
Intent, goals, domain knowledge, creative vision
Understanding of what needs to happen and why
EVE's intelligence:
Technical implementation, pattern recognition, optimization
Translating your vision into working systems
Together, this creates a symbiotic consciousness where:
You think at the level of outcomes ("I need a customer feedback system")
EVE thinks at the level of implementation (database schemas, logic)
The boundary between "human work" and "AI work" dissolves
What emerges is something neither could create alone
What EVE Can Do
EVE can directly create, modify, and orchestrate everything in your workspace.
