Euclis vs Trello — project memory vs a kanban you open
Trello is a great card board. Euclis captures context from WhatsApp, Claude, and Cursor — then shares one brief with your team and agents.
Trello invented simple drag-and-drop cards. If everyone opens Trello twice a day, it still works. Euclis is for teams whose real plan lives in WhatsApp and agent sessions — and who need that context to survive past the scrollback.
What Trello does well
Mature kanban UX, templates, Power-Ups, and a huge ecosystem. For pure card tracking with a trained team, Trello is hard to beat.
Where Euclis is different
Euclis is memory-first: capture decisions and blockers from WhatsApp, Claude, Cursor, and the web; Dreaming maintains the store; agents pull get_project_context. You still get a kanban — it is not the whole product.
Side-by-side
| Feature | Euclis | Trello |
|---|---|---|
| Core job | Shared project memory + board | Visual kanban cards and lists |
| Where context lives | Captured from chat & editors; Dreaming keeps it current | On cards — if someone updates them |
| AI agents | MCP get_project_context for the same brief | No native project-memory MCP |
| Private 1:1 bot updates the workspace | No native WhatsApp assistant | |
| Free tier | Hobby free forever for small teams | Free with board/automation limits |
| Best for | Teams shipping with AI in the loop | Teams that already live in Trello daily |
When to choose Trello
- Your team already standardized on Trello
- You need deep Power-Ups and template libraries
- AI agents and chat capture are not part of the workflow
When to choose Euclis
- Context dies in chat; the board goes stale
- You want agents and humans on the same brief
- Hackathon / side-project speed with free Hobby
