Manual scheduling vs AI-powered automation

Doodle simplifies scheduling by collecting availability through polls, but still relies on manual coordination to finalize and adjust meetings. As schedules become more dynamic, employees often end up managing changes and conflicts themselves.

Reclaim
handles scheduling automatically while keeping employees in control. AI schedules meetings, tasks, and Focus Time based on priorities and availability, then continuously adapts as calendars change. When conflicts arise, scheduling agents automatically protect focus time, rebalance work, and keep schedules aligned without constant manual intervention.

Better meetings, not just more meetings

Doodle helps teams find a time for meetings, but it does little to improve how meetings impact the rest of the workday. Meeting overload, fragmented schedules, and lost focus time remain challenges for teams to solve on their own.

Reclaim
helps teams improve how meetings fit into the calendar. Smart Meetings automatically adapt as schedules change, while scheduling policies can enforce no-meeting days, meeting limits, required agendas, and other organizational standards. The result is a calendar that protects productive work instead of allowing meetings to consume it.

AI assistant for every employee

Doodle helps users coordinate availability, but offers limited value beyond scheduling logistics.

Reclaim
gives every employee access to AI that helps manage time, priorities, and workload. Employees can ask what deserves attention next, create more focus time, resolve scheduling conflicts, generate meeting agendas, and automatically protect time for important work. Combined with AI-powered scheduling and specialized scheduling agents, calendars continuously adapt as priorities change instead of relying on constant manual planning.

“My work schedule has changed significantly since I started using Reclaim. It's been a game-changer! I would be lost without it.”
