As a PM, importing ChatGPT or Claude memories on day one is a very smart onboarding move. BTW, do you pronounce this launch as Brain square?
@zerotox we want to make it as quick and easy as possible for you to work with Brain²! And great question! It's pronounced, "Brain Two"!

How Brain² performs for companies that don’t run everything inside ClickUp yet. Is it still strong with partial context?
@roopreddy Great question! Brain² gets stronger the more context it has, and you can definitely use it without everything directly in ClickUp!
MCP integrations let it connect to tools you're already using outside ClickUp (GitHub, Google Drive, Slack, etc.), so it can pull context from wherever your work lives.
And as your team uses it more, company-wide memory fills in the gaps. So it's definitely still useful with partial context, and it compounds over time! 🙌
I've used a few project management tools over the years, and the biggest challenge is usually getting the whole team to actually use them consistently. I'm curious, after all these years of building ClickUp, what's the one feature that still surprises you with how much users rely on it?
the "context already lives where the work happens" point is the actual moat. how do you keep it permission-scoped so it never surfaces something a given user shouldn't see?
Great question, @sabber_ahamed! Great question, Sabber! Brain² is fully permission-aware. It can only access and surface data from Spaces, Folders, Lists, and tasks you already have permission to view. If something is private or restricted, Brain² won't reference it for anyone outside that access scope!
@clickuptasha perfect — inheriting existing permissions instead of building a parallel model is exactly what most "company brain" tools botch. does it respect per-item sharing too, or mostly at the Space/Folder level?
@clickuptasha @sabber_ahamed Yup.

Should I wait for Brain^3 or is Brain^2 going to be a sufficient amount of brain?

How do you control what Brain² is allowed to see and use when it answers?
Great question,@thamibenjelloun ! Brain² uses your permissions, so it can only access Spaces, Folders, Lists, and tasks you're already allowed to view. Every answer is built from your context, which is way faster than searching manually.
Curious how useful this is for teams who don't already live in ClickUp. The pitch is "knows your entire company" but realistically the depth of context depends on how much of your work is actually in ClickUp tasks and Docs. For a team running Notion + Linear + Slack, is this still a meaningful upgrade -- or is it mostly a power feature for existing ClickUp users?
Happy to answer, @schott_taylor ! Brain² does connect to tools like Slack, GitHub, and Google Drive, so hybrid teams can ask questions that span both ClickUp and external apps without having to switch between tools. Even partial adoption gives you cross-tool awareness that most standalone AI models don't offer!
I love the new Brain²! 🚀🧠
My favorite new feature is MCPs! The most time I save with MCPs is through the GitHub integration. In the era of AI, a lot more code is being produced, which can be overwhelming! With the GitHub MCP I can ask Brain for any outstanding comments or reviews I need to take care of. It even has context from my tasks, so it knows what each PR is about and can help me make decisions. This offloads so much of the mental load.
Brilliant!
@borislav_yanev1 Now this is what we love to see 😍 Thanks for taking us through your workflow!
Great update! One question. Does it have time-awareness? Can it understand that newer content would take priority over conflicting older content?
