SLA-driven work
Due dates, warning thresholds, reminders, escalation, and overdue branches for anything that needs a person.
Workflows, forms, pages, kanban boards, and AI agents in one platform — priced per action, not per seat. Build the automations big companies pay six figures for, at a fraction of the cost. Use managed UserTasks Cloud, or self-host on-premises — fully open source and free forever.
Mix people and AI agents however each process needs. Start human-in-the-loop, add agents where they help, or hand whole flows to agents — and change the balance any time without rebuilding.
Route work to the right person or queue, hold the process until they act, and keep every approval governed with SLAs, reminders, escalation, and a complete audit trail.

Notify & continue
Due dates, warning thresholds, reminders, escalation, and overdue branches for anything that needs a person.
Redirect, delegate, reassign queue ownership, and keep stalled tasks moving without breaking the record.
Assignments, comments, outcomes, and overrides captured as audit evidence for every decision.
Auto-generate the contract, letter, or report a person needs to review or sign, then deliver it by email, storage, or e-signature — natively, no add-on.
UserTasks is not just a workflow canvas with a basic approval box. It includes a full operational task layer for the messy part of automation: people, queues, deadlines, exceptions, overrides, audit evidence, and reporting.
SLA visibility
Know what is at risk before it misses
Managed recovery
Redirect or override without losing evidence
Operational insight
Reports and dashboards already wired in
Set due dates, warning thresholds, reminders, escalations, overdue states, and workflow branches for work that needs a person.
Let authorised users redirect work, invite recipients, reassign queue ownership, and keep stalled tasks moving without breaking the process record.
Give managers controlled intervention paths for escalation, reassignment, completion recovery, queue pressure, and exceptional business handling.
Capture assignment, comments, redirects, escalations, outcomes, workflow continuation, and administrative actions as evidence.
Track active work, overdue tasks, queue load, capacity, completion trends, process health, and operational exceptions from day one.
Use built-in workflow, task, individual, project, integration, unit-usage, business-rule, and retention reports before building custom analytics.
UserTasks gives builders a serious workflow designer and gives operators the dashboards to understand throughput, errors, SLA pressure, bottlenecks, and process paths after work starts moving.

Executive-ready reporting
Prebuilt report hubs show individual, project, workflow, task, capacity, integration, and unit usage performance.
UserTasks connects the trigger, automation, human decision, external system, and final audit trail. Teams see one process; builders get one platform.
Collect a form, webhook, API request, schedule, or data event.
Apply rules, conditions, decision tables, and AI-assisted reasoning.
Call systems, update data, create documents, send email, or run agents.
Assign user tasks, notify teams, request approval, and escalate.
Inspect runs, SLAs, queues, dashboards, and operational reports.
UserTasks includes out-of-the-box connector templates for SaaS apps, databases, storage, AI platforms, documents, and messaging. Generic REST, OData, webhooks, OAuth, API keys, bearer tokens, and basic auth cover the long tail.
View connector setup requirements
Google DriveStart from schedules, forms, webhooks, data changes, or API events. Combine automated actions with approvals and user tasks, then branch, retry, escalate, and recover without hiding the process in code.
Use built-in connectors or bring any REST and OData service. Import OpenAPI definitions, create reusable references, and authenticate with API keys, bearer tokens, basic auth, or refreshable OAuth 2.0.
Build the operational experience around the workflow with a bleeding-edge, WCAG 2.2 AA–accessible form and page designer: public or internal forms, app pages, enterprise task queues, kanban boards, conversations, notifications, and reusable email or metadata templates.
Every workspace is tenant-isolated. Permissions, API scopes, audit trails, document retention, token controls, and connector credentials stay part of the platform instead of becoming cleanup work after launch.
HTML email, notification, form, and document metadata templates
Custom tables, database connectors, reports, and OData access
Scoped API keys, OAuth apps, MCP tools, and REST endpoints
Governed AI agents with tools, knowledge, traces, and workflow steps
Stop stitching together five tools. UserTasks covers the whole loop — capture, automate, act, and measure.
Design event-driven automations on a drag-and-drop canvas — approvals, escalations, SLAs, retries, and human-in-the-loop steps included.
Build branded forms and full app pages with rules, validation, and public share links. No code required, web components when you want them.
Every workflow can create governed work with queues, SLAs, redirects, escalation, management override, audit trails, and kanban boards your team actually works from.
Postgres, SQL Server, Snowflake, MongoDB, SharePoint, Slack, SAP, Mercury Bank, Stripe, Azure Blob and more — plus generic REST, OData, and webhooks.
Give agents tools, knowledge, and guardrails, then drop them into workflows as first-class steps with full run history.
Role-based access control, per-tenant isolation, audit trails, retention policies, and scoped API keys — from day one, not as an add-on.
Start quickly with UserTasks Cloud, or use a private/on-premises deployment when infrastructure ownership, network boundaries, residency, or internal security policy requires it.
A managed deployment with fast workspace provisioning, platform updates, monitoring, and tenant isolation handled for you.
UserTasks is fully open source and free to self-host — run the entire platform in infrastructure your organization controls, with no license fees, ever.
Workflow modernization
Modernize K2 and Nintex portfolios by mapping workflows, forms, business data, integrations, tasks, rules, and operational controls into a governed UserTasks application—not by blindly copying old screens.
Map workflows, SmartForms-style experiences, SmartObjects-style data access, worklists, rules, and deployment requirements.
Explore the K2 migration guideCompare the complete operating model across workflows, forms, approvals, integrations, documents, governance, deployment, and cost.
Explore the Nintex migration guideTraditional automation platforms charge you for every user who logs in. We meter the work instead: each successful platform execution consumes units, and that's the whole model. Cheap to start, efficient at scale, and free while we're in beta.
We're opening UserTasks to a limited group of beta testers ahead of our full launch in a couple of months. Sign up now and we'll spin up your own private workspace in seconds — completely isolated from every other tenant.
