About Motion

Motion is best known for its AI calendar: you add tasks with deadlines, durations and priorities, and Motion places them into free time on your calendar, rescheduling automatically when meetings move or work runs over. Over time it has grown into a broader work suite with projects, docs, notes, an AI meeting notetaker, workflows and reports, aimed at individuals and small teams who want planning and execution in one place. It connects to Google and Microsoft calendars and runs on the web, Mac and Windows desktops, iOS and Android. Pricing is per seat per month in AI-focused tiers that include monthly AI credits, with a free trial you can cancel in one click; there is no permanent free plan. The automatic scheduling can feel like magic when your task list is accurate and frustrating when it isn't, and the expanding feature set means a steeper learning curve than simpler calendars or planners.

Best for: People and small teams who want an AI to plan their tasks around meetings automatically.
