Overview

Routine is an AI-powered workspace for tasks, calendars, notes, contacts, and related work objects. It brings planning, capture, and reference material into one app so users can manage day-to-day work without switching between separate tools.

The product centers on a single planning surface, a universal inbox, and AI features for meeting notes, voice commands, agents, and automations. It is available on multiple platforms and includes both individual and team-oriented plans, with collaboration and organization controls added in higher tiers.

Core features

Planner and time blocking

Plan tasks and events on one screen, then drag work into the calendar to reserve time for it.

Universal inbox

Capture tasks, reminders, meetings, and notes in a single inbox so items from different sources do not get lost.

Custom data model

Create custom databases and types with properties and relations to model the objects your team works with.

AI assistant and agents

Use AI to capture action items, summarize meetings, draft work, and automate repetitive tasks or workflows.

Integrations and bidirectional sync

Connect services like Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, Todoist, Asana, and Zapier to centralize data across tools.

Cross-platform access

Work across desktop, web, and mobile, with offline mode and synchronization across devices.
