Automatically blocks time on your calendar for tasks, habits and focus work.

Motion (AI calendar)
AI calendar that plans your day around your tasks and moves things when plans change.
Quick take
- Add tasks with deadlines and Motion books them into your calendar, then reshuffles when plans change.
- Pro AI is $19 a seat a month billed yearly ($29 monthly). Business AI is $29 ($49) and adds Gantt charts, capacity planning and time tracking.
- Also does projects, docs, an AI chat and meeting notes, all running on monthly AI credits.
- Paid only after the free trial, and pricier than Reclaim or a plain to-do app.
- Constant reshuffling isn't for everyone. Some users stop trusting the schedule.
What is Motion (AI calendar)?
Motion is an AI calendar and task manager. You add tasks with a deadline, a rough length and a priority, and Motion fits them into the gaps in your calendar around your meetings. When a meeting runs over or something urgent lands, it reshuffles the rest of your week so the important work still gets done. You can also share booking links so others book into your free time.
It has grown into a full work app for teams. Projects and Gantt charts schedule themselves around each person's capacity, AI Workflows turn repeat processes into ready-made projects, and there's an AI chat, a meeting notetaker, docs and dashboards. The AI features run on monthly credits that come with each seat.
The catch: it's paid only, after a free trial, and it costs more than most calendar tools. Some people find the constant rescheduling stressful or don't trust where it puts things. If you only want your tasks blocked into your calendar, Reclaim is cheaper and simpler.
