Skip the non-essential parts of any text and go straight to the really important points. Do not waste time while trying to get the vital information. In a quick and easy way you can get the gist of the text and save yourself the effort of reading lengthy texts. No more guessing where the key information might be. Know in advance what can be skipped and what is a must-read. If the highlighted information seems satisfactory you can read the whole article, but there is no point in wasting time while reading something that turns out to be irrelevant. Get new and interesting information from myriad of different sources. Grasp the key ideas in an efficient and effortless way. If you are a writer, you can easily post your articles and reach a wider audience. Share your ideas and insights with other people, who might be interested in your writings. Write your texts and then highlight the most important parts. It will make it so easy and pleasurable for your readers to know exactly what to focus on. In case the gist sparks their curiosity, they can read the whole article. The application makes it easy for people to absorb much more valuable information in a shorter period of time. In modern media outlets we often see pieces of text and all sentences look the same. Yet, not all sentences carry the same value to the reader. Some are trivial while others can contain vital information. By having a clear guidance about what to focus your attention on, you can seek out the most valuable content and thus save yourself a lot of unnecessary reading and precious time. It is a greatly improved and more efficient approach to reading and accumulating new ideas and information. In the same amount of time, you can read many more articles and get all of their valuable information compared to the traditional way of reading. Be more productive, gain more while doing less.

Calendari is your calendar with a personal assistant that actually calls you. Manage your schedule by text or voice, get a call when it's time to leave — not just a push notification — and let your assistant make the calls you don't want to: booking a table, telling someone you're running late, or ringing you the moment an important email lands. Share plans with groups, see everything on a map, and keep it all in sync. SMART CALENDAR * Month view with events for the selected day; switch between your personal calendar and any group calendar. * Tap a date to open a day view with events grouped by time (All Day, Morning, Afternoon, Evening). * Create and edit events with title, date, start/end time, location, and notes. * Mark events as completed; events are stored locally on your device. AI ASSISTANT * Chat with an AI planning assistant by text or voice. * Create events by natural language ("Add dentist tomorrow at 2pm," "Bible study at 7pm for the Bible Study group"). * Ask about your schedule: "What's on my calendar today?", "Am I free tomorrow at 4pm?" * Planning and conflict checks: "Would next week be good for vacation?" * Recurring schedules, bulk edits, and rescheduling by voice or text. * Driving time between places, and suggested route order for multiple stops. * English and Spanish, both by text and by phone. PERSONAL PHONE ASSISTANT * Get your own dedicated phone number for your assistant — call it anytime, or have it call you. * Leave-by call reminders: instead of a generic alert, your assistant calls to tell you exactly when to walk out, based on real travel time. * Calls businesses on your behalf — book a table, a haircut, or an appointment, then calls you back with what happened. * Calls people for you — let someone know you're running late, or send one message to a whole group at once. * Try it free: dial the demo line or have Calendari call you, no account required. * Natural, human-sounding conversation. EMAIL * Connect your Gmail account (read-only) so your assistant can read messages aloud, search your inbox, and pull up a specific email in full. * Watch for an email from someone specific — your assistant calls you the moment it arrives. GROUPS AND COLLABORATION * Each group has its own calendar; switch between Personal and any group from the bottom bar. * Create or join a group with an invite code, or share a join link. * Set who can add events to a group: everyone, admins only, or the owner only. * Shared events sync automatically so every member sees them on the group calendar and map. MAP AND LOCATION * See your event locations on a map, with pins colored by group. * Tap a pin for directions. NOTIFICATIONS * Location-based "time to leave" alerts, timed using current traffic — as a push notification, or as a call from your assistant. * Reminder timing the AI sets automatically based on the type of event. ACCOUNT AND SYNC * Sign in with your Apple ID; profile picture, display name, and your groups sync via iCloud. * Delete your account anytime — this permanently removes your data, including from our servers. PERSONALIZATION * Five color themes with matching gradients and accents. * English or Spanish throughout, including onboarding and the AI. Personal Assistant is available as an in-app subscription.
