Amie
A joyful calendar with tasks, email and an AI assistant built in.
NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep paying — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the scheduling job, so this one still earns its $15/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Google and Notion both shipped modern AI calendars. OpenAI, January 1, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? yes
- 1 of 3 listed replacements have a usable free tier: Notion Calendar.
- What the call is worth $180/yr
- $15/mo at the entry paid tier — $180 a year per seat.

The backstory
Amie merges calendar, todos and inbox into one fast interface with an assistant that schedules by natural language. Calendars are unusually defensible: switching means moving your whole life, and the differentiator is how the app feels at 9am rather than what the model can do.
