What Trello is
A kanban board tool for organizing work visually. Tasks are cards on lists, moved across the board as they progress, with deadlines, tags, attachments and comments attached to each card.
The AI layer helps turn rough inputs into structured work: extracting action points, generating subtasks and proposing deadlines. Butler automates the repetitive parts by rule, moving cards, sending reminders and updating statuses without human clicks.
