Motion is an AI calendar, task and project app built around automatic scheduling, with an AI Notetaker for online meetings folded into the same product. It has no free plan, and what decides whether it suits you is whether the AI credit allowance on its cheapest paid tier covers how much scheduling and note-taking you do each month.
What is Motion?
Motion is an AI calendar, task and project app made by NexusBird, Inc., which trades as Motion. It runs on the web and has apps for Mac, iOS and Android, all signed in to a Motion account.
What Motion does for your day
Auto-scheduling is Motion's core feature: instead of dragging tasks around a calendar by hand, its AI places tasks into the best available time slots based on priorities, deadlines and availability. Motion combines Google, Outlook and iCloud calendars into one view, and its booking links let others book time without back-and-forth messages. An AI Task Manager organizes and prioritizes tasks.
Motion does not handle email: it does not draft replies or sort an email inbox. Its Inbox collects Motion's own notifications about tasks, projects and docs.
An AI Chat assistant answers questions in plain English over your own tasks, projects, docs and calendar, with Motion's data already connected. An AI Notetaker joins Google Meet, Zoom and Microsoft Teams calls to transcribe, summarize and extract action items.
Your data lives in Motion's cloud: every app syncs to Motion's servers rather than keeping data on your device.
Working with other people
Team plans add shared team capacity planning, permissions and access control, and central billing across seats. Motion integrates with Zapier, Zoom, Google Meet, Gmail, Outlook, Siri, HubSpot, Salesforce, Microsoft Teams and Slack, and has an API for creating, updating and managing projects and tasks.
Motion pricing: what each plan gives
Motion has no free plan. It offers a free trial before you choose a paid plan.
Pricing splits into two tracks. For individuals, billed flat per person: Pro AI costs $49 a month ($29 a month billed yearly), and Business AI costs $69 a month ($39 a month billed yearly). For teams, billed per seat: Pro AI costs $29 a seat a month ($19 a seat a month billed yearly), and Business AI costs $49 a seat a month ($29 a seat a month billed yearly).
Pro AI, the cheapest paid tier on either track, includes 7,500 AI credits a month. Business AI raises this to 15,000 AI credits a month and adds priority support. Credits beyond the allowance are paid as you go, from 19 to 25 cents per 100 depending on the plan and billing term.
Privacy and security
Motion does not train AI models using a customer's data, and its third-party LLM providers do not use a customer's inputs or outputs to train or improve their own models either. Motion has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit.
Support runs through email, chat and a help center.
Who Motion suits
Motion suits people who want their calendar auto-scheduled around priorities and deadlines, who use Google, Outlook or iCloud calendars, and who want an AI notetaker for Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls built into the same app.
It suits less well anyone who wants a free plan to start on, since Motion offers only a trial, or anyone who wants Motion to draft or sort their email, since it does neither.
