Wrike Review

Wrike, an AI work management tool, handles time tracking, goals, portfolios and request forms, with AI writing on every paid plan and free viewer guests. Its assistant that answers questions about your workspace starts on a higher tier, and it does not train on your content.

Why these numbers

Ways to view work: Counted from views. Whiteboard confirmed separately as a named product ("New! Wrike Whiteboard") sold as a $15/user/month add-on to Team/Business/Pinnacle and bundled unlimited into Apex. "List" and "docs" views were not named on a page read.

Docs and wiki: This is an in-line document editor for task attachments rather than a separate standalone wiki space.

Time tracking: Also listed as its own row in the plan comparison table; exact plan cutoff not extractable from the table's icon-only cells.

Forms that create work: "Request forms" is also a row in the plan comparison table.

Ask AI about your whole workspace: Wrike Copilot is an AI Elite feature, starting on the Business plan.

AI writes in tasks and docs: AI Essentials (including content creation/editing) is included unlimited on every paid plan, starting at Team.

AI meeting notes: Checked the features page and help centre; only user-built Community templates and manual note-taking folders for meetings were found (e.g. "Actionable Meetings" use-case template), not a built-in recording or AI meeting-notes feature.

Searches your other apps: Checked the features page and help centre; only in-Wrike task/item search was found, no feature that searches across other connected apps like Slack or Drive.

Why these numbers

Guests need no paid seat: External Viewer-role guests are unlimited and free; a separate, more capable Collaborator guest role is paid ("additional Collaborator User licenses may be purchased for an additional fee").

Ways to reach support: Counted from support_channels. Phone support requires a paid Premium support package; live chat is included with paid accounts. Community confirmed via the separate Wrike Community site linked from the help centre.

Why these numbers

Cheapest paid plan, monthly: The vendor publishes only the yearly rate per month; that figure is used. Prices are in US dollars ("All our prices are listed in US dollars" per the pricing FAQ).

AI on the cheapest paid plan: Team (cheapest paid plan) gets AI Essentials only (content creation/editing, comment summary, form/rule generation, Board AI, mobile inbox prioritization); Wrike Copilot, AI Agents, and widget generation (AI Elite) only start on Business.

How the Spec Score works

Scored from what Wrike publishes on its own site. Not a hands-on test.

Compared with 9 AI work management tools. Facts checked 22 Sep 2026.

A fact the vendor does not publish gets half the points, or the typical value for a number, and says so. It never counts as a no. How we score.

Wrike is a project and work management platform built around boards, tables, Gantt charts, calendars and dashboards. It splits its AI into two tiers: AI Essentials for writing and form generation, included on every paid plan, and AI Elite for Wrike Copilot and AI Agents, which only starts on the Business plan. What decides whether it suits you is which of those two tiers your team actually needs.

What is Wrike?

Wrike is a work management platform headquartered in San Diego, United States. It runs on the web, on desktop apps for Windows and Mac, and on mobile apps for iOS and Android, all syncing to a Wrike account in the cloud.

Managing work in Wrike

Wrike's views include boards, tables, Gantt charts, calendars and dashboards. A separate Whiteboard product is sold as a paid add-on on top of Team, Business and Pinnacle, and is bundled unlimited into Apex. Task attachments can be edited directly through Wrike's built-in document editor, and time tracking with approvals feeds capacity planning. Goals and portfolios are tracked through company OKRs, team goals and portfolio or program-level KPIs, and dynamic request forms support conditional logic. An Automation Engine handles rule-based workflow automation.

Wrike's AI splits into two tiers. AI Essentials, covering content creation and editing, comment summaries, form and rule generation, Board AI and mobile inbox prioritization, is included free and unlimited under fair-use limits on every paid plan starting at Team. AI Elite is metered separately and only starts on the Business plan: it adds Wrike Copilot, an assistant built into projects that answers questions and summarizes work, and AI Agents. Wrike does not have a built-in AI meeting notes feature, and its search does not extend to other connected apps.

Working with other people

Team plans include one shared space plus a personal space. Viewer-role guests, inside or outside your organisation, are free and unlimited; a more capable Collaborator guest role is a paid add-on. Wrike integrates with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, Google Sheets, Miro, Power BI, Tableau, Adobe Creative Cloud, Gmail, Outlook and Microsoft Excel, and offers a public REST API and its own MCP server for connecting AI assistants.

Wrike pricing: what each plan gives

Wrike, Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing, with unlimited users but a cap of 200 active tasks and 2 GB of storage per account, plus board and table views and the web, desktop and mobile apps. A 14-day free trial is available, with no credit card required.

Team costs $10 per user per month, billed annually, for 2 to 15 users, and includes AI Essentials unlimited under fair use; AI Elite is not available. Business costs $25 per user per month, billed annually, and is only available as an annual subscription; it adds AI Elite as a pooled monthly allowance of 300 actions across the account, covering Wrike Copilot, AI Agents and widget generation.

Privacy and security

Wrike does not use customer data to improve AI models, its own or those of Microsoft and other third parties. Only anonymised, non-specific usage statistics may be used to train Wrike's own models. It is SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 Type II certified, ISO 27001:2022 certified, and GDPR compliant, with a Data Processing Addendum for customers who request it. Single sign-on through SAML is available on the Pinnacle and Apex plans; Team and Business do not include it. Support runs through live chat and a help center for all paid accounts, a community, and phone support on a paid Premium support package.

Who Wrike suits

Wrike suits teams that want a single platform for boards, Gantt charts, time tracking and portfolio-level goals, with AI writing and form generation included on the entry paid plan. It also suits teams that connect AI assistants to their work, through Wrike's MCP server and public API.

It suits less well teams that need Wrike Copilot or AI Agents on a budget, since both require the Business plan, and teams that want single sign-on, which needs the custom-priced Pinnacle or Apex plans.
