Mayday: The Calendar Assistant

Time is your most valuable asset, but its too easily lost, stolen, or misspent. Mayday aims to fix that.

Mayday is a helpful calendar that gives you control of your schedule and helps you spend time in more meaningful ways. Mayday develops a comprehensive understanding of demands on your schedule and helps you to prioritize what matters most to you.

This release currently supports Google Calendar and Zoom accounts. Additional integrations are coming soon.

— One Timeline —

Break down the silos between your work life and your personal life. Mayday brings all of your calendars into one place to create a unified timeline for you. You get a complete picture of the demands on your time and help those you work with to understand when youre available.

- Privacy-first event duplication across calendars
- Unify duplicate events in your timeline
- Mark non-critical events as "FYI" to minimize their impact on your timeline

— Scheduling Links —

Scheduling time to meet should be based on priorities, not by playing calendar Tetris. With Mayday Scheduling Links, invite others to meetings based on flexible parameters that align with your priorities and let Mayday do the heavy lifting to find the best time to meet for everyone.

- Easily create custom single-use or reusable scheduling links that reflect your true availability
- Book meetings that match the structure of your ideal week, not whenever your calendar is empty
- Copy and customize your availability to suit the situation

— Smart Tags —

Smart Tags let you set preferences for different types of events and give your calendar more context. Use a specific colour to see where your Team Meetings are at a glance, set smart defaults like always adding a Zoom link to your Client Meetings, and more. Use Smart Tags when creating events in order to quickly set defaults and organize common types of events.

- Create new events faster with Smart Tag based defaults that fill in your ideal parameters
- View the makeup of your week at a glance with Smart Tag colours
- Automatic event syncing rules so certain tagged events can be reflected in multiple calendars

— Calendar Shield —

Calendar Shield optimizes the structure of your day so that you have plenty of time to do your work, during work. If a particular day starts to fill with too many meetings, Mayday automatically blocks the remaining time before you can get overloaded and at risk of burning out.

- Protect time across multiple calendars so your availability is always made clear to others
- Settings to adjust for more or less meetings depending on your role
- Customizable event descriptions

— Notifications —

Mayday analyzes your calendar for potential issues that need your attention, and brings them to your attention before they blow up your day. For example:

- Double-booked two meetings at the same time?
- Upcoming meeting without a location?
- Do you have a personal event during work hours that others aren’t aware of?
- Is an upcoming week unusually busy?

— Your Day at a Glance —

With global shortcuts, Mayday lives in your Macs menu bar and can provide a heads up overview of what coming up next without needing your full calendar.

- Menubar access gives you an overview of your schedule and how much time remains in your current meeting
- Join your next meeting link with one-click from wherever you are
