Asana: pricing, free plan, features & alternatives (2026)

What is Asana?

Asana is a work management platform for cross-functional teams, service teams, client teams and developers. Its core is the Asana Work Graph, which connects people, tasks, projects, goals and dependencies so that humans and AI agents can see who is doing what, by when, and toward which goal.

The AI layer includes AI Teammates, pre-built agents for roles such as Project Manager, Launch Coordinator, Portfolio Advisor, Compliance Manager, Content Writer and Quality Coordinator, plus AI Studio for no-code automations and Asana Dash as an AI chief-of-staff. Teams can ask these agents to turn a brief into a project plan, flag blocked tasks, summarize retrospectives, or check compliance evidence before an audit. Agents run under identity, permission and cost controls managed from the same admin console as human users.
