Overview

What it does.

Motion combines a calendar, task list, and project manager, and uses an algorithm to place tasks on the calendar automatically based on priority, deadlines, and available time. When meetings move, tasks are rescheduled without manual effort. Newer AI features add an assistant that drafts project plans, meeting notes, and documents, and AI workflows that create tasks from emails or forms. Small agencies, consultants, and service businesses use it to keep a lean team on schedule without a dedicated project manager. It integrates with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, and Zapier, and offers booking pages for client scheduling. The team plans are billed per seat, and monthly billing costs considerably more than annual. One caveat: the scheduling engine needs accurate durations and priorities on every task, and teams that do not keep tasks up to date tend to see unrealistic calendars that they stop trusting.

Pricing
