What is Clara?
Clara is a virtual employee that schedules your meetings by working entirely through email. Simply add Clara to any email thread via CC, and Clara takes over the scheduling back-and-forth on your behalf, finding available times, negotiating with all participants, and sending calendar invites without you touching the thread again. Clara combines machine intelligence with 24/7 backup from experienced Executive Assistants, promising a simple and delightful experience for both you and your meeting guests.
Key features include automatic meeting scheduling across multiple calendars, natural language email interaction (no commands or jargon needed), automatic follow-ups to ensure meetings get booked and confirmed, calendar integration with Google Calendar and Outlook, time zone detection and handling, customizable scheduling preferences (communication style, scheduling windows, buffer times), and no separate app or login required. Clara reads your email thread, checks availability, negotiates times, and sends the invite directly—no scheduling links that pull people out of their workflow.
Clara is designed for busy professionals, executives, salespeople, business owners, and teams who spend significant time on calendar coordination and scheduling. It's particularly useful for those who juggle multiple meeting requests daily, coordinate with multiple stakeholders across different time zones, or deal with complex scheduling needs. With over one million meetings scheduled, Clara helps users focus on doing great work instead of getting caught up in administrative tasks.
Clara works where you do with native configurations for Google and Outlook, plus integrations with Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Your inbox stays yours—no human at Clara reads your emails, and Clara handles every scheduling thread from start to finish automatically. Enterprise plans support custom email domains so Clara sends as your brand, and the service requires no setup, no credit card for the free trial, and no contracts.
