Motion
PaidProductivitySchedulingNEWAI-powered calendar and project manager that auto-schedules tasks and plans your day intelligently.
Overview
Motion is an AI-powered productivity tool that combines calendar management, task scheduling, and project planning into a single intelligent system. Its core premise is that the AI should decide when you work on what, automatically building an optimized daily schedule based on task priorities, deadlines, energy levels, and meeting commitments. Users add tasks with deadlines and time estimates, and Motion's AI schedules them into the optimal available slots.
The project management features allow teams to create projects with task dependencies, and Motion automatically schedules the critical path, adjusting team members' calendars as priorities shift. When a task takes longer than expected or a new urgent item appears, Motion re-plans the entire schedule in real time, ensuring deadlines are still met or flagging risks early. This dynamic rescheduling eliminates the manual overhead of constantly updating project timelines.
Motion's meeting scheduler replaces tools like Calendly by allowing external contacts to book meetings based on AI-optimized availability, ensuring that accepting a meeting does not displace critical task time. The tool integrates with Google Calendar, Outlook, and popular project management platforms, serving as a central command center for how individuals and teams allocate their time.
