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.

FamilyWall

Shared family calendar

A color-coded calendar shows one person's schedule or the whole family's at once. Any member can add or edit appointments, and reminders can be set for events.

Shopping and to-do lists

Shared shopping lists can be browsed offline in the store. To-do lists can be private or shared, and individual to-dos can be assigned to chosen family members.

Messenger, gallery and contacts

Family members post messages in threaded conversations, share photos and videos in a private gallery, and keep contacts such as a babysitter or doctor in a shared directory.

Calendar sync (Premium)

Premium connects Google and Outlook calendars to the family calendar and can subscribe to any public or shared calendar through its URL.

Meal planner and budget (Premium)

The meal planner lays out the week's meals, imports recipes from the web and turns a plan into a grocery list. The budget tracker records shared bills and everyday expenses.

Location and place alerts (Premium)

A map shows family members' recent and real-time positions, and alerts tell you when someone arrives at a saved place such as home or school. Each member chooses who sees their location.
