Agenda Hero

Magic event creation

Type or paste text, or upload a screenshot, photo or PDF, and Magic returns structured events. One request can produce many events, and every field can be edited before saving.

Add to Google, Apple and Outlook

Events can be sent to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook or Office 365, or emailed to yourself as an invite. This is included on every plan, Free included.

Shareable, printable calendars

Dates builds a calendar page with a choice of views, colors and layouts that resizes for print and for phones, and that collaborators can edit together.

Sources and feeds

On Plus and above, a calendar can pull in Google Calendar, TeamSnap, GameChanger or any ICS feed, and hide the events from a feed that do not apply to you.

Text message reminders

The Family plan can schedule text reminders to one, some or all of the six people on the plan. The pricing page limits these to US numbers.

Chrome extension and AI connector

A Chrome extension converts selected text on a web page into events, and an MCP connector lets Claude or ChatGPT read your calendars and add, change or remove events.
