Dropbox describes extending its calendar assistant so people can express scheduling goals in natural language, while requests still depend on calendar context and availability. The case speaks to adding AI interaction to an existing product without discarding its core workflow.

What
Reclaim is a calendar assistant that uses AI to find and adjust time for tasks, habits, and meetings.
How
Users can describe scheduling goals in natural language; an agent interprets them using calendar context such as availability and preferences.
Why it matters
The redesign aims to make agents use the existing scheduling logic, reducing the risk that ambiguous requests cause inconsistent calendar changes.
