Built for individuals & teams

If you're an individual with a light to moderate workday schedule, you're probably okay going with Motion.

But if you're working in a team of 5 or more people, and have a super busy workweek juggling meetings, tasks, and regular work responsibilities, then Reclaim is for you. Reclaim optimizes your productivity with advanced AI-driven scheduling for meetings, tasks, routines, and breaks, right in the platforms you’re already using for a more efficient and adaptable experience.

More AI & features

Motion’s scheduling automation is ultimately limited to tasks and booking links.

Reclaim goes way beyond that with a deep feature set that automates everything from your tasks, habits, meetings, breaks, calendar sync, and even advanced time tracking analytics. Each of these features includes advanced scheduling customizations and AI priority controls so you can stay flexible throughout your workweek, but always focused on what matters most.

Better project management

Motion has a very basic project management setup that's designed for individuals and very small teams – but not practical for medium-large teams or organizations to really adopt. They need advanced project management power, and want to work in their own setup.

That's why at Reclaim we've built integrations with the most popular project management apps Asana, ClickUp, Jira, Todoist, Linear, and even Google Tasks. You can automatically sync your tasks from your project management app and find the best time to work on them right in your calendar.

More than 340,000 people across 45,000 companies are active with Reclaim
“Robust free tier so people can try, scheduling as good as Motion for a fraction of the cost (love the new priorities feature), helps to manage competing priorities more efficiently than any other task/calendar MGMT tool I have ever used.”
