ClickUp, the business name of Mango Technologies Inc., today is introducing what it says is a major overhaul of its Brain artificial intelligence assistant inside its workplace collaboration platform, going beyond answering questions to executing complex work tasks.
The update, called Brain2, gives AI models direct contextual access to information stored in ClickUp workspaces and automatically routes tasks among multiple large language models based on the type of work. The company said the system can now generate polished slide presentations, interactive dashboards, websites and executable code from a single prompt.
“General-purpose AI doesn’t know anything about your work,” founder and Chief Executive Zeb Evans said in a statement. “Brain2 fixes that. Any model you choose gets full access to your workspace and can act on it, not just answer questions about it.”
The new system continues ClickUp’s aggressive push into AI over the past two years. The company, which has raised more than $530 million and has openly declared its intention to go public, recently acquired enterprise search startup Qatalog Inc. and AI coding startup Codegen Inc. to expand contextual understanding across workplace applications and strengthen software development automation capabilities.
