Key features

Akiflow

Universal inbox
Tasks from connected tools such as Gmail, Slack, Notion, Asana, Jira and Todoist land in one inbox. Zapier and IFTTT cover tools without a native integration.
Time blocking on the calendar
Place tasks on a calendar that syncs with Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar, so planned work sits next to meetings.
Aki AI assistant
Ask Aki by chat or voice to plan, prioritize or move work, for example clearing an afternoon and pushing tasks to the next day. Included in Pro.
Availability sharing and booking
Share open slots or a meeting link so other people can book one-off or recurring meetings with you.
Command bar and shortcuts
Create, edit and navigate tasks from the keyboard. The command bar also turns copied text from a web page into a task.
MCP connector
Connects Claude, ChatGPT or another MCP client to your Akiflow tasks, calendar and meetings.

Timeboxing
Drag a task to a time slot, or press X to auto-schedule it. The block shows up in Google, Outlook or iCloud calendar, or on Sunsama's internal calendar.
Tasks from other tools
Bring in work from Asana, Trello, Jira, Linear, Notion, Todoist, Gmail, Slack and others, and plan it alongside tasks created in Sunsama.
