MeisterTask
MeisterTask is a work management platform for projects, tasks, and documentation, available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. Each project has a customizable Kanban-style board showing task status, while a projects overview tracks deadlines, risks, and progress across projects. Automations can perform repeat actions, such as assigning an owner when a task enters a board section. Reports can analyze project performance and filter results by owner, status, and due date. Integrations include Slack, Google Calendar, iCal, Gmail, Outlook, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Zapier. Basic users are limited to two integrations; Pro and Business users have unlimited integrations, and ChatGPT and Claude apps do not count toward Basic’s limit. The Free plan costs nothing and includes up to 3 projects. Pro costs $12.50 a month, and Business costs $24 a month. Meister says its servers are in an ISO 27001-certified data center in Germany and describes security controls, workspace access management, and regular backups.
