Akiflow
Hey Product Hunters 👋
Akiflow is a task manager + calendars app that automatically imports your tasks and calendars and helps you manage your schedule.
I’m excited to launch our latest integration with Claude / ChatGTP / Cursor (via MCP).
Now you can manage your tasks and calendars (yes, with the Akiflow MCP you’re not limited to one calendar integration anymore 🌝).
Anytime you're chatting on Claude/GPT, you can ask them to add tasks/events into Akiflow, or to check your schedule. You can also now use LLMs to help you review your days or help you plan your next week! You can find more ideas on our website!
Since our last launch here on PH, we added a lot of new features including:
- Transcripts and Meeting Assistant
- Subtasks
- Siri Integrations
- Mobile Widgets
- Daily Dashboard
and much more..
I already spend a lot of time planning launches, tasks, meetings, and random founder admin across too many places, so being able to tell Claude or ChatGPT to add something directly into my planner feels like a real workflow improvement, not just another AI feature. The most useful part for me would probably be weekly planning. I often have the context in a chat already, but then still need to manually turn it into tasks and calendar blocks somewhere else. Curious how much Akiflow lets the AI change without confirmation. can it only suggest a plan, or can it actually move tasks/events around once connected?
Akiflow
@andrasczeizel It can do everything, we just have some limitations/extra checks on deleting items or adding guests to events, being both potentially disruptive actions.
Weekly planning is a great use case!

@priyatharshini_c Yes, MCP is two-way with Akiflow: the AI can read your planner and, with permission, create or update tasks, events, and time blocks in Akiflow.
Google Calendar sync is handled by Akiflow’s normal calendar setup, not by the AI tool itself. So if your Akiflow time blocks are set to lock/sync to your calendar, that block can show up in Google Calendar too. If calendar locking is off, it stays as an Akiflow time block, but Claude/ChatGPT/Cursor can still see it through MCP.
@tadej_jevsevar That's a clean setup, appreciate the clarity. Makes sense to keep Google Calendar sync as the source of truth rather than duplicating logic in the AI layer. Will definitely try this out for the planner + MCP combo.
Chipolo
@priyatharshini_c Please do. And let us know if you come up with workflow that makes your planning better.
Congratulations @sid_akiflow @tadej_jevsevar excited to try this, was curious about one thing, when I complete or reschedule a task inside Akiflow, does it cleanly push back to the source tool (Asana, Linear, Notion, etc.), or is the sync mostly one-way?
Chipolo
@sid_akiflow @vaishnavi_goel It’s not mostly one-way.
If a task came from a connected tool like Asana, Linear, Notion, Trello, etc., Akiflow keeps that link. So when you reschedule or edit that task in Akiflow, including through MCP, Akiflow can push the update back to the original source.
The caveat is that it only applies to tasks that are actually linked to a source task.

Great to see the MCP integration. Congrats on the launch! Btw, what happens if the same task exists across multiple apps or gets updated in more than one place?
Chipolo
@henry_habib if a task is already connected to another app, Akiflow keeps that link and updates the same task instead of creating a new one.
For example, if a Todoist task is synced into Akiflow and you ask Claude to move it to Friday, Akiflow updates that same linked task.
But if you manually create similar tasks in two different apps, Akiflow won’t guess they’re the same just because the title matches. That would be too risky, so those stay separate unless they’re actually linked.
the MCP approach to task management makes a lot more sense than building another standalone AI feature. if i'm already in claude working through a problem, being able to say "block 2 hours for this tomorrow" without leaving the conversation removes a real friction point. curious how it handles conflicts though. if i ask claude to schedule something and there's already a meeting in that slot, does it suggest alternatives or just flag the overlap?
Chipolo
@tina_chhabra Exactly the kind of friction we wanted to remove.
It lets Claude check your schedule before it creates a block, so it can see that you already have a meeting there and suggest another open time instead.
It won’t silently move meetings around on its own. The best flow is: Claude checks your Akiflow schedule, says "that slot is busy, 3-5pm is open instead," and then creates the time block once you approve it.
The detail about putting extra checks on deletes and adding guests I think can be quite useful and alleviates concerns about important stuff being deleted accidentally. Are these guardrails fixed, or can a user set their own permission rules (e.g. "AI can reschedule freely but never touch anything with external attendees")? And is there an easy way to see/undo what the AI changed after the fact?
Chipolo
@david_vilalta Today the guardrails are mostly fixed, not a custom rules engine yet.
So yes: Akiflow can tell the AI when something is a delete, when an event has guests, and when a calendar is read-only. The AI client can ask for confirmation before making those changes, and Akiflow won’t let it modify read-only calendars.
What we don’t have yet is a setting like "AI can reschedule freely but never touch events with guests." You can tell Claude/ChatGPT that as an instruction, but it’s not yet an Akiflow-level permission rule.
For undo: task deletes go to trash, so they’re recoverable. For calendar changes, you can change things back in Akiflow/calendar, but we don’t yet have a dedicated "AI changed these 5 things, undo all" screen. Thanks for the suggestion, that’s a very good direction for us.
