Overview

Clara is an AI scheduling assistant from Clara AI, Inc. Instead of a booking link, a user copies Clara on an email. She reads the thread, proposes times, replies to the other people, follows up when someone goes quiet and confirms the meeting once a time works for everyone. The company says this covers group meetings, internal coordination and calls across time zones, and it contrasts the approach with link tools such as Calendly, where the other person has to do the scheduling.

Users set scheduling windows, buffer times, meeting types, priority contacts and communication preferences, and Clara follows them. She works natively with Google Workspace and with Microsoft Outlook and Exchange, so no new interface is needed. The site pitches her at agencies, legal and finance teams, executives and founders, and recruiters coordinating interviews. On privacy the company states that no human at Clara reads customer emails, that the AI handles every scheduling thread on its own, and that it never trains its models on customer data.

The Free plan is a 14-day trial with 5 meetings and no credit card. Standard is $80 a month for 30 meetings, with delegate access and advanced integrations. Enterprise is by quote and adds unlimited meetings, company-wide preferences, an admin dashboard, a custom domain name and data retention. The dollar sign is shown without a currency name. There are no cancellation fees.
