Clockwise Shut Down: How to Move to Reclaim.ai (and How It Compares to Motion)
Clockwise, the AI calendar tool that protected Focus Time and moved meetings around for teams at companies like Uber, Netflix and Atlassian, stopped working on March 27, 2026 . The Clockwise team joined Salesforce to work on Agentforce. Salesforce has said publicly that it did not acquire the Clockwise product or its technology, so the product didn't move anywhere.

On March 27, 2026, Clockwise, the AI-powered calendar tool that helped teams manage their Focus Time and schedule meetings, ceased operation. The Clockwise team subsequently joined Salesforce, working on Agentforce, but Salesforce has not acquired the Clockwise product or its technology, rendering it inactive. Users who relied on Clockwise will notice the absence of Focus Time blocks, Flexible Meetings, and scheduling links.
To transition to a new solution, Reclaim.ai has emerged as the closest alternative to Clockwise. Reclaim offers similar features, such as Focus Time (now referred to as Focus Time + Habits), Flexible Meetings (rebranded as Smart Meetings), and Scheduling Links. The transition from Clockwise to Reclaim is relatively straightforward and can be completed within an hour.
Users must first clean up any remaining Clockwise data, sign up on Reclaim, set working and meeting hours, rebuild Focus Time, transform Flexible Meetings into Smart Meetings, update scheduling links, and incorporate buffers and calendar sync options. Although Motion is another option, it operates differently from Clockwise and Reclaim.
Motion is more of an AI project and task manager that also schedules days, incorporating features like AI assistance for documents and workflows. Users should consider Reclaim if they want to retain Clockwise's features, while Motion might be more suitable for those seeking an integrated project and task management system. Pricing for both Reclaim and Motion is subject to change; users are advised to review the current plans at reclaim.ai/pricing and usemotion.com/pricing before committing.
