The result is a CRM where the entire outbound workflow - call, log, send follow-up email, schedule next call, move pipeline stage - happens without switching applications.

The Meeting Notetaker transcribes and summarizes every Zoom, Teams, and Meet call on all plans.

After connecting, Reclaim immediately begins identifying scheduling opportunities in your existing calendar. The first meaningful setup task is Habits: defining the recurring time blocks you want protected. Each Habit requires a name, ideal duration, scheduling window (morning, afternoon, specific days), priority level, and flexibility settings (how much Reclaim can compress the block if needed). A professional with five recurring priorities - focus time, lunch, team sync, weekly review, exercise - can configure all five Habits in 20–30 minutes.","Smart 1:1 setup requires both participants to have Reclaim connected, then selecting the person and defining the meeting cadence, duration, and preferences. Reclaim finds the optimal recurring slot across both calendars and locks it in. Task integration setup connects the relevant PM tool (Asana, Jira, ClickUp, Linear, Todoist, or Google Tasks) via a dedicated integration panel - each integration authenticates and begins pulling task deadlines within minutes. The full setup investment - calendar connection, five Habits, one Smart 1:1, one task integration - takes approximately 45 minutes and produces a meaningfully organised calendar within the first day.","Configure Habits before connecting task integrations - establish your non-negotiable protected time blocks first so Reclaim knows what schedule space is truly available before it starts adding task blocks.

You open Google Calendar (or Outlook), and the calendar reflects what Reclaim has scheduled: colour-coded Habit blocks for focus time and recurring priorities, task blocks for scheduled work items, and meeting times unchanged. When a new meeting invite arrives that conflicts with a Habit, Reclaim reschedules the Habit to the next best available slot without any input required. The personal calendar sync feature is particularly valued by professionals who need to block time for private commitments - appointments show as busy to colleagues without the event details being visible.","The absence of a mobile app is the clearest daily friction point. Reclaim's web interface is not optimised for mobile browsers - it is a desktop-first product in an era when most professionals check and adjust their schedules from a phone. Users can view Reclaim-scheduled blocks in their Google Calendar or Outlook mobile app, but they cannot modify Habits, adjust task priorities, or manage Scheduling Links from a phone. This means any schedule change that requires Reclaim-level adjustment - rescheduling a Habit manually, pausing task scheduling during a busy period, changing availability for a Scheduling Link - requires opening a laptop. For professionals who manage their calendar on the go, this is a deal-breaking limitation.","Set your Habit flexibility settings conservatively when first configuring - allow Reclaim to compress blocks by a maximum of 25% rather than the default.

Habits cover recurring time protection for any repeating priority - focus work, breaks, exercise, admin blocks, team rituals - with individual priority levels, scheduling windows, and compression flexibility. Smart 1:1s maintain optimal recurring meeting slots between two people automatically, finding new times when either calendar changes and eliminating the manual reschedule back-and-forth. Focus Time blocks protect stretches of uninterrupted work time and are automatically defended against meeting invites. Buffer Time adds configurable gaps before or after meetings. Scheduling Links provide customisable availability pages for external booking that respect all Reclaim-managed blocks as unavailable.","The task scheduling engine pulls deadlines from connected PM tools and schedules time blocks for each task automatically based on deadline urgency and available calendar time. People Analytics on Starter and above show how scheduled time is distributed across meeting types, focus work, Habits, and tasks - useful for managers reviewing team capacity and for individuals tracking whether their intended priorities are actually getting calendar time.

The Help Centre covers every core feature - Habits, Smart 1:1s, Focus Time, task integrations, Scheduling Links, and People Analytics - with written guides, video walkthroughs, and configuration best practices.

This reduces the Habit configuration learning curve significantly.","Support response times are consistently rated positively in user reviews - users report timely, specific, and helpful responses to configuration questions. The Reclaim team publishes regular product update posts that transparently document what changed, what is in progress, and what is planned, which builds trust with users tracking specific feature requests.
