Motion vs Reclaim
This is a scope split: Motion is an AI productivity SuperApp — Pro AI $19/seat/mo annual ($27 monthly), Business AI $29 annual ($45 monthly), no free plan, only a 7-day trial — bundling AI auto-scheduling with tasks, projects, meetings, docs, and workflows in one paid app. Reclaim.ai is a calendar-first layer on Google Calendar/Outlook — Lite free forever, Starter $10/seat/mo annual ($12 monthly), Business $15 annual ($18 monthly), Enterprise $22 — that defends focus time and auto-reschedules without replacing your task tool. Pick Motion to consolidate your work OS; pick Reclaim to protect deep work inside the calendar you already use, starting free. No scheduling-quality shootout was run.
| Decision point | Motion | Reclaim |
|---|---|---|
| Best suited to | Solo knowledge workers with heavy task loads who want their day auto-planned and reshuffled | Individual contributors losing deep work to meeting fragmentation |
| Plans and cost | Motion 官网定价页（第三方 2026-09-19 核验）：Pro AI $19/席位/月（年付；月付 $27，含 7,500 AI credits）；Business AI $29/席位/月（年付；月付 $45，含 15,000 credits）。无免费版，仅 7 天试用（需绑卡，到期自动转付费）。 | Reclaim.ai 官网定价页（第三方 2026-10-06 核验）：Lite 永久免费；Starter $10/席位/月（年付，月付 $12）；Business $15/席位/月（年付，月付 $18）；Enterprise $22/席位/月（仅年付）。 |
| Limitations | There is no free plan — only a 7-day trial that requires a payment card and auto-converts unless canceled, and reviewers report billing confusion around the trial. AI features consume monthly credits | The free Lite plan is genuinely usable but capped (5 AI agents, 1-week scheduling range, 1 scheduling link). Sources disagree on Outlook support — one review states Google Calendar only, another lists |
