Trello is a great general-purpose tool. But interior design firms need more than cards on a board. Here is how DesignOS compares.
Trello manages tasks. DesignOS runs your entire design firm - from scope to invoice to Telegram.

Define your scope of work once. DesignOS auto-generates tasks, rooms, and milestones. With Trello, you create every card manually - and your team eventually stops updating them.
Your existing Telegram groups become project hubs. Site photos auto-file to Drive, workers check in/out, and daily digests keep you briefed. Trello has no messaging integration for Indian teams.
Generate CGST, SGST, IGST invoices, quotations, and payment receipts directly from projects. No separate Zoho or Tally needed. Trello has zero billing capabilities.
FF&E pipelines, vendor PO tracking, room planning, 7-phase project lifecycle - everything an Indian design firm needs. Trello is a blank canvas you have to build from scratch.
You need a simple, generic task board for a non-design team, or you are a solo freelancer who only needs basic to-do lists without invoicing or vendor management.
You run an interior design firm in India with multiple projects, need GST invoicing, want your Telegram groups to work as project hubs, and want AI to handle the data entry so your team actually keeps using the software.
Join 120+ Indian design firms running on DesignOS. Free forever plan, no credit card required.
