Key Features

Tips & Tricks

TIP

Start with just 2-3 high-priority habits. Overloading it initially makes the rescheduling chaotic. Let it learn your rhythm.

TIP

Be ruthless with task priority settings. This is the lever that controls what gets moved when your schedule changes.

TIP

Use the 'Break' habit to force lunch and short pauses. I was surprised how often I'd otherwise work straight through.

TIP

Connect your project management tool. It transforms vague tickets into concrete, scheduled time commitments automatically.

TIP

Review the Schedule Health weekly. It's a gut-check to rebalance meeting-heavy weeks before they happen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Reclaim AI work with Microsoft Outlook?+
No, and this is a major limitation. It currently only integrates with Google Calendar. The team has hinted at future support, but for now, Outlook users must look elsewhere.
How does it handle last-minute meetings? Does it constantly reshuffle my day?+
It reschedules based on the priority you set. A last-minute high-priority meeting will bump lower-priority tasks. You can set a 'lock' on critical items to prevent them from moving.
Is the free plan actually useful, or just a teaser?+
It's genuinely useful. I ran on it for months. The 2-hour daily task limit is the main constraint, but for protecting habits and some focus time, it's excellent.
Can my team see the blocks Reclaim creates on my calendar?+
Yes, they appear as normal calendar events. You control the visibility (e.g., showing 'Focus Time' vs. a vague 'Busy' block). Transparency is key to training colleagues to respect your time.
What surprised you most after using Reclaim daily?+
The psychological relief. Offloading the constant 'when will I do this?' decision to a tool reduced my mental load significantly. The calendar became a partner, not a source of stress.
