Microsoft Copilot can assist with scheduling actions inside Outlook when prompted, such as drafting invites or proposing times. It acts as a general AI assistant that responds to simple requests.
Reclaim is purpose-built to run scheduling as a system. Its AI continuously manages meetings, Focus Time, tasks, routines, and breaks by default—so the workweek stays balanced without constant user input. In addition to this always-on automation, Reclaim is introducing an interactive, human-in-the-loop AI assistant that lets users understand, adjust, and guide how their time is managed when they want more control.
Microsoft Copilot can create focus blocks or suggest meeting times on demand, but those actions are fixed at the moment they’re created. As meetings move and priorities shift, it’s up to the user to notice problems and intervene again.
Reclaim continuously adapts schedules as conditions change. Focus Time is defended, conflicts are resolved automatically, flexible work is rebalanced, and meetings are placed where they do the least damage to deep work—so calendars remain realistic and productive over time, not just at the moment of creation.
Microsoft Copilot primarily supports individuals, with outcomes dependent on how often users prompt it and manually intervene.
Reclaim works equally well for individuals and for teams. At the individual level, it provides always-on scheduling automation and AI assistance to help people manage their own time without constant manual effort. At the team and organization level, Reclaim functions as shared scheduling infrastructure—allowing admins to define Focus Time goals, meeting rules, protected breaks, and scheduling policies that are automatically enforced across calendars.
