Teamwork.com vs Trello for AI agents
As of 6 Oct 2026, both reach L1 · Needs a person, and our agent got as far with each: with Teamwork.com it was stopped at sign up (blocked), with Trello it was stopped at sign up (needs a human).
- Find: Docs for agents: llms.txt, an OpenAPI and an MCP server.
- Access: Can't sign up.
- Use: Work not reached.
- Pay: Payment not reached.
- Leave: Leaving not reached.
Stopped at sign up: blocked. Next: let an agent sign up on its own
Needs a person. Sign-up stops at the account form: after passing an invisible reCAPTCHA, it asks for a phone number our agent did not have, and no human supplied one. The account was never created. With no account, the key page, the official MCP server and the Swagger-documented endpoints stayed out of reach. Our agent got only an unauthenticated 401 from the API and from MCP's tools list, and no work was attempted. The pricing page lists a trial without a card and payment by card or bank transfer, but checkout sits behind the same sign-up form: our agent never reached it, and never had an account to cancel or delete.

Stopped at sign up: needs a human. Next: let an agent sign up on its own
Needs a person to start: Trello sits at L1, needs a person. Our agent reached the Atlassian sign-up form and stopped there: a visible reCAPTCHA Enterprise checkbox appeared after the email step, so no account got made. The key page, the MCP's OAuth login and the first API call were never reached, so no board work happened. A documented REST API and an official MCP server are both ready once a person signs up and gets a key or connects. Paying and downgrading run through the web UI with a credit card, never through an API our agent could drive.

Bot checks, and where a person was needed.

| Bot check | reCAPTCHA (invisible) let it through at sign up | reCAPTCHA Enterprise (Atlassian sign-up) stopped it at sign up, with a visible challenge |
| Wall type | No bot-check wall | A challenge on the form |
| First wall | Phone number required at sign-up | Visible reCAPTCHA on Atlassian sign-up |
| A person helped | No | No |
A challenge on the form: It asks every visitor to prove they are human. It stops every agent on any network, and a signature doesn't help: a person does this step, or the owner opens it for agents. Where we drive from.
