Tasks by Reclaim.ai - Your to-do list finally meets your calendar.

Your to-do list is useless if you can't find the time to get stuff done. Tasks automatically blocks smart, flexible time on your calendar for all the things burning a hole in your backlog.

πŸ‘‹ Hi ProductHunt! πŸ‘‹ After months of testing, refining, and polishing with hundreds of private beta users, we're finally ready to share Tasks with the world. πŸ₯³ We know that for most busy professionals with crazy calendars and endless meetings, it's impossible to find time during the workweek to get the important stuff done. We built Tasks to solve that problem once and for all. Tasks automatically blocks smart, flexible time on your calendar for anything you want to get done. Unlike other attempts at this solution that we've seen in the past, Tasks doesn't require you to know when you want to get something scheduled: just tell Reclaim when it's due, how much time you need, and we take care of the rest. Want to know more? Here's a quick look: πŸ—“ Say what you need and when it's due, and Reclaim blocks time automatically πŸ†“ Tasks stay flexible and free until Reclaim notices your due date approaching πŸ‘† Because Reclaim keeps Tasks flexible, your availability stays open (until it's not) πŸ€– Tasks auto-adapt to your schedule, rescheduling and moving as things change πŸ”„ Integrations with Google Tasks and Slack let you manage your Tasks from anywhere πŸ’¬ Create Tasks directly from chat messages and make changes on the fly via Slack βœ‰οΈ You can even create Tasks from an email (using our Google Tasks integration)! We envision a world in the not-too-distant future where your entire schedule is automatically managed for you, where the calendar knows what your priorities are, and where you just have to flick a few knobs and tweak a few dials to rethink your workweek. We're still working hard to make that vision a reality, but Tasks brings us one step closer. Since we went into private beta, we've seen nearly 2000 hours of Tasks blocked on people's calendars. We can't wait to hear what you do with it. Finally, a big thanks to for the Hunt πŸ™ Have fun crushing your to-do list! πŸ’ͺ Cheers, The Reclaim Team
For the first time since the Sunrise calendar app was slaughtered mercilessly by Microsoft, I've felt hope for my calendar. I also love how Tasks integrates so easily with Google Tasks. Reclaim is very protective of my time, but also adjusts super-quickly when new things are added to my calendar.
What a huge compliment. We were big fans of Sunrise as well and got a lot of inspiration from it.
thank you! And thanks for all the feedback and help you’ve given us along the way πŸ™
I use tasks to declare the things I need to get done. I love how Reclaim leaves flexibility in my schedule, while still making sure I have the time off when needed. It's kind of like magic: it moves things around when your calendar shifts, and it leaves it open for other people until things get too tight. The perfect combination of flexibility and structure!
😊😊😊
I love reclaim :) it would be great if this could sync with Things 3 - I’m not sure if they open up with anyone though...
Henry and I are both Things users as well. We want this. I am pretty sure there is an API, but it requires access through the desktop. So first step is for us to build a desktop app... which we are in fact working on!
+1000 β€” big Things fan here and can’t wait to build that integration!
I've been looking for an app like this for a long time. It can be hard to protect time for getting tasks done when you calendar looks open, adding tasks as invites manually is a pain since schedules often have to be adjusted for urgent unexpected meetings. I love that reclaim automatically adjusts when tasks can be done and protects my time when I really need to get things done
Thanks Colin! What we also do is manage the task's free/busy time, preserving your availability for other meetings if there is enough slack in your schedule to let you push the work back. But if the due date is approaching, we mark it as busy and get a bit more defensive on your behalf.
thanks! It’s just the beginning, but hearing feedback like this is music to our ears.
I have written more about calendars and scheduling than anyone really should πŸ€“ And I really love Reclaim because it takes the best ideas around proactive scheduling and timeboxing and makes them sticky by building them into a product.
It means so much to see this. John is being humble... he is the coauthor of an amazing book + community centered around strategic time management and basically being your best self. If you're interested in Reclaim, you also owe it to yourself to check out his work over at
Love the idea and was dreaming about this kind of app. But I've found an initial set-up a little bit too complex and exhaustive. Also, an interface seems to be all around for me. Looking forward for updates!
thanks for the feedback! We are definitely looking to decrease that onboarding friction over time and shorten the time to value. Part of why we err on the side of a longer onboarding is because there are some concepts we really want to make sure users grok before they get started.
This is exactly what i was waiting for. Would love to see the integration with Todoist as currently i create all tasks in Todoist
We'd love to see it too! It won't be long now, but if you want to participate in the beta, make sure you click on "I'm interested" in the Settings so we can contact you about it.
Todoist integration FTW. It’s by far the most popular todo app in our data.
This has been a game changer! I’ve had time blocking recommended to me a few times now. Every time I would start I would spend so much time setting up the time blocks, thinking about my days, and then more time adjusting when an unexpected meeting or priority popped up. I gave up when I needed to start scheduling a block for β€œschedule/adjust time blocks” on my calendar. Reclaim/Tasks is like having my own personal assistant! Something changes? No problem, the rest of my day shifts automatically. I need to add that new priority? No problem Tasks will figure out when I have time to take care of it. I love that it isn’t only built for work habits/tasks. I also use Reclaim to maintain work-life balance while working from home to make sure that I’m spending enough time on personal projects and routines. I look forward to the Todoist integration, because I know it will just make it even better!
"like having my own personal assistant" ❀️ Music to my ears!
we couldn’t have described it better ourselves 😊 thanks so much β€” Todoist integration is on the way!
Reclaim tasks have completely improved my GTD flow. Seamlessly, quietly runs my week behind the scenes.
Thanks Mike! πŸ’ͺ
