Your tasks, notes, and calendar shouldn't live in three different apps. Claira keeps them in one place — the school form buried in your inbox, the appointment next Thursday, the packing list for the trip, the idea you don't want to forget. Capture anything, organize later. Ask Claira anything "What's on my plate this week?" Claira reads your own tasks, notes, and calendar and answers — and searches the web when it needs to, with the sources right there to tap. "Add that to the note." It drafts the change and waits for your okay. Keep everything together Keep the tasks, notes, events, and chats for a project, a trip, or the kids' stuff in one place — like a folder, but for more than files. We call each one a bubble, as in a thought bubble: everything on your mind about one thing. Capture first, organize later Type, dictate, or share from any app — the iOS share sheet, voice, photos, PDFs, Office files. Claira transcribes voice and fills in fields like title and date. Capture works offline and syncs when you reconnect. Forward an email. Claira finds the to-dos. Claira gives you a private address. Forward or CC any message and the tasks and events hidden inside come back as cards you accept with a tap. Need the gist of a long newsletter or PDF? Tap once for a summary. Tasks and notes, one editor One editor for both — no app-switching. Started a note that's really a task? Convert either direction. Swipe to schedule for today; set tasks to repeat — daily, weekly, monthly, or custom; reminders nudge you at the right time. Don't know the date yet? Park it in "In a week" or "Someday." Plan your day on the timeline Organize your day on a timeline — drag tasks and events into place, timeboxing when each one happens with a quick drag & drop. End the day with a clear head Journal is a short evening check-in: how the day felt, what's on your mind, an optional photo. Look back anytime to see how things have been going. Spaces for every part of your life Home, work, side projects — give each its own Space, with the tasks and notes that belong there. Switch in one tap; nothing mixes together. Share a Space with your partner or family, and everyone sees changes live. Find anything, fast One search across every task, note, and event. Type a name, a topic, or a time — “today,” “this week,” “past due” all work. Claira widget Add the Claira widget to your Home or Lock Screen to see today's agenda and your next event.
