Data Transfer Guide

Notion Calendar doesn't have a direct export feature since it syncs with Google Calendar. To transfer data: 1) Ensure all events are synced to Google Calendar through Notion Calendar's two-way sync. 2) Export from Google Calendar as .ics file via Settings > Export calendar. 3) Import this .ics file back into Google Calendar (the same or different account) that will connect to Reclaim AI. 4) Reclaim AI will automatically access all events from the connected Google Calendar. Note: Custom properties from Notion databases won't transfer directly—you'll need to recreate these as tags or notes in Google Calendar before importing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer my data from Notion Calendar to Reclaim AI?+
Yes, through Google Calendar export/import. All calendar events transfer via .ics files, but Notion-specific database properties and custom views won't migrate automatically.
How long does migration take?+
For individual users, expect 2-4 hours including setup and testing. Team migrations take 1-3 days due to coordination and training requirements.
Will I lose any features switching to Reclaim AI?+
You'll lose direct Notion database integration and some visualization features, but gain automated time protection, habit scheduling, and more intelligent calendar defense.
Can I use both tools during migration?+
Yes, run both tools in parallel for 1-2 weeks during transition. Disable Notion Calendar's Google sync to prevent conflicts once Reclaim is fully configured.
Is Reclaim AI cheaper than Notion Calendar?+
Both have free tiers. Reclaim's paid plans start at $8/month for individuals versus Notion Calendar's free offering, but Reclaim provides more advanced automation features at paid tiers.
