Executive Summary

ClickUp is primarily a work-management platform, but many teams use it as a lightweight layer for coordinating files and creative work. Its AI agents (ClickUp Brain) can help organize and retrieve documents inside project workflows, while integrations connect ClickUp to storage systems like Google Drive and Dropbox. For DAM needs, ClickUp works best as the workflow layer around assets (requests, approvals, deadlines) rather than the system of record for rich media. Teams that require AI auto-tagging, visual search, renditions, or brand portals typically pair ClickUp with a dedicated DAM.
