Task Machine and Polsia compared, with the source and check date of each answer
What you compare Task Machine Polsia
Goals Task Machine Yes

Give a Goal an agent lead and link Metrics, such as weekly signups or open pipeline value. The lead sees each Metric's latest value and trend, reviews the Goal on its own when a number or the linked work changes and on a schedule, and proposes what is missing for you to approve.

taskmachine.io/docs/goals
Polsia Partly

You give a company a vision and goals, and its agents analyze metrics. Its pages do not describe an agent-owned goal linked to a metric or target that the agent reviews or acts on.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Leads Task Machine Yes

Goals, Projects and Teams each have a lead, a person or an agent. A Goal lead checks that the work can still reach the outcome. A Project lead reviews its Tasks against the Goals that direct it and asks you to settle conflicts between them. A Team lead triages the queue. Every gap becomes a proposal you approve.

Polsia Partly

Polsia assigns roles such as CEO, Lead Engineer and Growth Manager. Its pages do not describe these leads reviewing and coordinating work over projects, goals or teams.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Tasks Task Machine Yes

Every job is a Task that a person or an agent owns. The Task keeps its plan, discussion, decisions, runs and history together, so you can steer one job in detail without reading a chat log, and people and agents hand work to each other on the same record.

taskmachine.io/docs/tasks
Polsia Partly

Agents create and execute tasks with suggested, approved, in progress and completed states. Its pages do not describe tasks owned by people alongside agents, with their own discussion or history.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Recurring work Task Machine Yes

Start a Task or Workflow once, on a schedule in your timezone, or when a service event arrives, such as a paid invoice or a pull request review. A recurring job keeps one stable root Task and gives each occurrence its own status and history, so repeated work does not flood your board.

Polsia Partly

Agents run daily cycles, and enabled advertising and outreach can run on a configured schedule. Its pages do not describe work starting from outside events or webhooks.

Workflows Task Machine Yes

A Workflow repeats your steps in the same order every time, with branches, human questions and approvals, and verifier checks that judge each result against its requirements and send weak work back with feedback. Every run keeps a step-by-step history you can read afterwards.

taskmachine.io/docs/workflow-builder
Polsia Partly

Polsia runs AI-driven workflows for business planning and other tasks. Its pages do not describe a user-defined repeatable multi-step process that runs the same way each time.

polsia.com/terms
Autonomy Task Machine Yes

Consequential decisions land in your Inbox with their context. You set what each agent may do on its own: every action is either Ask first or Automatic, per agent, and you can change that whenever the work or the stakes change.

Polsia Partly

Scheduled operations use prior general approval and can be disabled. Polsia describes permissions and budgets, but not configurable action approvals collected for the user.

polsia.com/terms
Learned autonomy Task Machine Yes

Task Machine studies the approvals and corrections you already make. When an agent does well it proposes giving it more freedom, and when it needs closer supervision it proposes tighter review, each with the evidence. A short lucky streak is not enough, and nothing changes until you accept.

Polsia Not published

Polsia describes permissions and supervision. Its pages do not describe proposing changes to an agent's autonomy based on approvals and corrections.

polsia.com/terms
Memory Task Machine Yes

Agents keep lessons from your corrections, such as an accepted example or a mistake to avoid, and carry the relevant notes into later work. Memory is kept per agent, project, goal, team and workspace, and you can read, correct and restore any note.

taskmachine.io/docs/memories
Polsia Partly

Polsia says it tracks context across a project to understand connected features and generate multi-file changes. Its pages do not describe persistent agent memory that users can see or edit.

polsia.com/blog/claude-code
Planning Task Machine Yes

Plan in Chat with your agents, and the plan becomes Tasks or Library documents instead of staying in a chat log. Before an agent starts, you review its plan and the acceptance criteria its work will be judged against.

taskmachine.io/docs/planning-in-chat
Polsia Partly

Polsia says it turns a business idea into a structured product plan. Its pages do not describe working out that plan in a conversation before execution.

polsia.com/blog/best-llm-for-coding
Intake Task Machine Yes

Send work in over HTTP with a project token. It lands in the project as a Task, or in your Inbox as a proposal first. A team lead agent triages it to the right owner and asks you only when the decision is yours.

Polsia Not published

Polsia describes agents creating tasks. Its pages do not describe receiving outside requests and routing them to an owner or agent.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Connectors Task Machine Yes

Install services from a catalog as MCP servers, APIs or command-line tools, or add your own custom Connector for any of the three. Events Connectors receive webhooks from a service, such as a paid invoice, and start Workflows or wake a waiting Task.

taskmachine.io/docs/connectors
Polsia Partly

Polsia lists GitHub, Gmail, Instagram and Meta Ads connections and MCP tool access. Its pages do not describe a second supported category such as custom HTTP or event triggers.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Models Task Machine Yes

Auto is the default. For each stage of the work it chooses a model from the task, current model capabilities, pricing and your applicable budgets, and you can fix a specific model on an agent when you want to.

taskmachine.io/docs/agents
Polsia Partly

Polsia lists Claude Agent SDK and describes access to third-party AI models through an API. Its pages do not describe automatically selecting a model per task or workflow step.

Cloud or your own computer Task Machine Yes

Run agents in Managed Cloud with nothing to install, or connect a Local Worker, a computer you control, for local files, tools and accounts. You choose where each agent runs.

Polsia Partly

Polsia hosts its platform and deploys your app for you. Its public docs do not describe running Polsia's agents on your own computer or infrastructure.

Your own subscription Task Machine Yes

Sign in to your ChatGPT (Codex), Claude or GitHub Copilot subscription on a Local Worker, and the agents there use it instead of Task Machine's models.

Polsia Not published

Polsia lists Anthropic for agent tasks, chat and content generation. Its public docs do not describe bringing your own AI subscription or model-provider API key.

Pricing Task Machine Yes

Usage based. From $29 a month before tax, the whole payment becomes usage that your workspace shares across people and agents, with no base fee and no trial. Larger monthly amounts lower the AI and Cloud rates.

taskmachine.io/pricing
Polsia Partly

Polsia says it is free to start. A July 11, 2026 blog post quotes $49 per month, but current applicability is unconfirmed. Its public sources do not establish usage-based or credit-based platform subscription pricing.

Correctness Task Machine Yes

Every Task carries acceptance requirements, and each one gets a Pass, Fail or Uncertain check against the delivered work before a person reviews it. Workflow steps can add a verifier check that sends failed work back with feedback. You review the plan first, so the criteria exist before work starts.

Polsia Partly

Polsia says its platform runs tests without manual intervention. Its terms require you to review outputs, and its pages do not describe task acceptance checks or workflow verifier retries.

What you compare Task Machine Polsia
Code review rules Task Machine Yes

Internal code review checks completed changes against the enabled rules of your repository. Rule discovery reads the repository and proposes rules, each screened against violating and valid examples first, and Task Machine suggests turning off a rule that agents keep dismissing.

taskmachine.io/docs/repositories
Polsia Not published

Polsia says its agents write and deploy code. Its pages do not describe code review against rules.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Adversarial review Task Machine Yes

When an approved plan has high sensitivity or a Critical review level, the change also gets an adversarial review. Two independent reviewers examine the changed files together for defects such as a broken caller or a duplicate charge on retry. Findings keep their reproduction steps, and a skipped or failed review never counts as a pass.

taskmachine.io/docs/task-reviews
Polsia Not published

Polsia says its agents write and deploy code. Its pages do not describe an independent second review for risky changes.

polsia.com/llms.txt
Risk rating Task Machine Yes

Before final review, Merge risk rates the exact revision Low, Moderate or High, with notes on alignment, impact, verification, rollback cost and error detection, plus file references. It informs your decision and never merges for you.

taskmachine.io/docs/pull-requests
Polsia Not published

Polsia can provision GitHub repositories. Its pages do not describe a risk rating for a change before merge.

polsia.com/terms
Pull requests Task Machine Yes

Agents deliver against the exact reported revision, address review feedback and update the branch under your repository rules. Task Machine records its own approval of the exact commit before an agent may merge.

taskmachine.io/docs/pull-requests
Polsia Not published

Polsia lists GitHub integration and code deployment. Its pages do not describe agents working on real pull requests with review feedback.
