ClaroCal

What ClaroCal is

ClaroCal is a web-based daily planner that places tasks into available time in Google Calendar and can replan them when schedules change. Add a task title and duration, and it schedules the task as a calendar block. Two-way sync reflects changes made to task blocks in either ClaroCal or Google Calendar; sync runs hourly on Essential, every 15 minutes on Plus, and every 5 minutes on Power. The service supports multiple calendars and natural-language planning input. Essential includes one reusable booking link, while Plus and Power include unlimited links. Plus adds calendar insights; Power adds SMS morning briefings, two-way text, proactive insights, and priority support. Plans cost $6/month, $10/month, and $16/month, respectively, with a 14-day trial and no free plan. ClaroCal requires a Google Calendar account and runs in a browser; an iPhone app is described as coming soon. ClaroCal says it does not sell Google user data or use it for advertising or AI model training, and requests calendar event, free/busy, and basic Google profile permissions.
