Reclaim.ai
Calendar assistant that schedules tasks, habits and focus time around meetings and moves them when your day changes.
- Free plan or free tier
- Connects to Google Calendar
- Connects to Outlook calendar
An AI calendar assistant works on your own time rather than other people's. You give it tasks, habits and the amount of focus time you want, and it finds space for them between your meetings. When a new meeting appears or a task runs long, it moves its own blocks to another free slot, so your calendar keeps showing a realistic plan for the day.
The tools on this page take different approaches. Reclaim.ai and Morgen sit on top of the calendar you already use and add scheduled blocks to it. Motion goes further and combines tasks, projects and calendar in one app, deciding when each task happens based on deadlines and priorities. Sunsama and Akiflow are planners first: they help you choose the day's work and drag it onto the calendar yourself, with AI help on top. Fantastical, Vimcal and Notion Calendar are calendar apps that make it quicker to manage a busy week and share free times.
Choose by how much control you want to hand over. If you like to plan each morning yourself, a planner is calmer and easier to trust. If your days are full of meetings and you keep losing deep work time, an assistant that defends focus blocks automatically can help. If you manage a team's projects, a tool that schedules tasks for several people will matter more.
These tools only work as well as the information you give them. Task lengths need to be honest, priorities need to be set and recurring habits need sensible windows. Plan on a week or two of adjusting before you judge the results.

Two practical checks before you commit. First, see how the assistant marks its blocks: colleagues should see you as busy during focus time, but flexible blocks should not stop important meetings being booked. Second, look at the access it needs. An assistant reads your whole calendar and often your task tools, so check the privacy terms and your company's rules before connecting a work account.
If you share a calendar with an assistant or a partner, agree on how the tool's blocks look to them. Clear names such as "focus" or "planning" help others know what they can move, and a short note in your calendar description explains how you work.
Most of these tools have a trial or a free plan, so you can try two side by side with the same week of work and keep the one you actually follow.
A booking page lets other people book time with you. A calendar assistant plans your own time, fitting tasks, habits and focus blocks around the meetings you already have. Some tools, such as Motion and Reclaim.ai, offer both.
The assistants here mostly move their own blocks, such as tasks and focus time, and leave meetings with other people where they are. Some can reschedule recurring one-on-ones within rules you set. Check the settings so nothing moves without your approval.
Several do, including Reclaim.ai, Motion, Morgen, Akiflow, Sunsama and Vimcal. Others started with Google Calendar only. Each tool page shows the calendar connections we could confirm.
Give it at least a full working week with real tasks and honest time estimates. The first days usually go to correcting priorities and windows. If you are still fighting the plan after two weeks, a simpler daily planner may suit you better.
