Frequently asked questions

How Clara works

Everything you need to know about what Clara does, how to get started, and what to expect once she’s handling your scheduling.

Can I have Clara on my domain?
Yes, Clara can schedule on your behalf using a custom domain email address on Enterprise plans, so recipients see an assistant native to your organization rather than a third-party tool. Contact our team to discuss setup options.

Which calendar and video tools does Clara integrate with?
Clara works natively with both Google Workspace and Microsoft Outlook and Exchange. This means no new tools or interfaces. All you need to do is copy Clara and she’ll start scheduling for you. Whatever email and calendar you're already using, Clara fits into it.

Can I customize how Clara communicates and behaves?
Yes. You determine scheduling windows, buffer times, meeting types, priority contacts, and communication preferences, and Clara follows them consistently. She adapts to your specific work style, not a generic version of it. Tell her how you work once, and she handles scheduling accordingly from there.

What happens when someone needs to reschedule?
Clara handles it. If a confirmed meeting needs to move, just loop Clara back in and she’ll coordinate the new time, cancel the original invite, and send an updated one to all participants. No manual back-and-forth required.

How does Clara handle group scheduling and internal meetings?
Just copy Clara on any email and she handles the rest. Clara reaches out to all participants, tracks responses, follows up when needed, and confirms the meeting once a time works for everyone. She handles group meetings, internal coordination, and multi-timezone calls the same way, regardless of complexity. When you copy Clara, the meeting gets booked.

Your data, your emails, your rules

How Clara handles your information, why no human ever reads your scheduling threads, and what our security architecture actually means in practice.

Does anyone at Clara read my emails?
No. Not a reviewer, not a contractor, not a member of our team. Clara is fully automated. The AI handles every scheduling thread from start to finish without any human ever seeing your emails.

Where is my data stored, and for how long?
Clara stores only what’s necessary to complete your scheduling tasks. We don’t retain email content beyond what the workflow requires, and we never share your data with third parties. Contact our team for specifics on data retention and storage.

How does Clara handle my data and privacy?
No human at Clara ever reads your emails. The AI handles every scheduling thread entirely, meaning there’s no manual review or human in the loop. Your client conversations and sensitive communications stay private. We never train our models on your data.

Plans, trials, and what's included

What each plan covers, how the free trial works, and what happens when you’re ready to upgrade — or if you decide Clara isn't for you.

Are there any cancellation fees?
None. Cancel anytime, no questions asked, no fees. If you’re on a paid plan and decide Clara isn’t right for you, you won’t be charged beyond your current billing period.

What happens if I exceed the meeting limit on the free plan?
No surprises. We don’t collect credit card information on signup, so there’s nothing to charge. If you hit the limit, Clara simply won't be able to schedule additional meetings until you upgrade. No interruptions to meetings already confirmed.

What does Clara cost?
Clara offers a free plan to get started, with paid individual and team plans available as your needs grow. All plans include a 14-day free trial — no credit card required. Visit the pricing page for current plan details and what's included at each tier.

How Clara compares

How Clara stacks up against other scheduling tools, and why the differences matter more than the feature lists suggest.

Can Clara replace a human executive assistant for scheduling?
Yes. Clara handles everything a human EA would: proposing times, managing the back-and-forth, following up, confirming meetings, and taking care of reschedules. When it comes to scheduling coordination work, Clara handles everything completely.

How does Clara compare to other scheduling assistants?
Many AI scheduling assistants handle scheduling through email, but the differences matter. Clara is the only one with native Microsoft Outlook support, and the only one where no human ever reviews your scheduling threads. Clara also has over a decade of scheduling experience, more than any other tool in the category.

Which AI scheduling assistants support Microsoft Outlook?
Most AI scheduling tools were built for Google Calendar first. As a result, Outlook support is limited or requires workarounds. Clara is one of the only AI scheduling assistants with native Outlook and Exchange support, making it the strongest option for professional services firms and enterprise teams on Microsoft infrastructure.

How is Clara different from Calendly or scheduling link tools?
Calendly shifts the coordination work to your counterpart: they click a link, pick a slot, and do the scheduling themselves. Clara absorbs the work entirely. She reads the thread, proposes times, handles the back-and-forth, and confirms the meeting. No links, no forms, no friction.

Who already loves using Clara

How Clara fits into different professional workflows, from recruiting and legal to executive scheduling and agency work.

Can Clara handle client scheduling without exposing privileged communications?
Yes. Clara is fully automated, so no human ever reads the emails she's included on. Attorney-client privilege and client confidentiality are never compromised by Clara's involvement. For practices with specific compliance requirements, contact our team to discuss details.

As a founder, can I use Clara for investor meetings and board calls?
Yes, founders and executives love using Clara to handle investor meetings and board calls. These use cases involve exactly the kind of high-stakes scheduling where a professional, human-feeling coordination experience matters. Clara handles the full thread so you never have to send a calendar link to someone you're trying to impress.

Our firm uses Outlook. Will Clara work for us?
Yes. Clara supports Microsoft Outlook and Exchange natively as a first-class integration. For law firms, CPA practices, and financial advisory groups on Microsoft infrastructure, Clara works exactly the way you want her to: copy her on an email, and she handles the rest.

Can Clara handle the volume of scheduling a recruiting team deals with?
Yes. Clara is built for high-volume scheduling environments involving multiple simultaneous threads, panel interviews, multi-round coordination, and candidate follow-up across an entire pipeline. The more scheduling your team does, the more value Clara delivers.

Is Clara a good fit for a small agency or is it built for larger teams?
Clara works for both, but she shines for larger teams. Copy her on a thread and she handles the coordination. There's no minimum team size, and the free plan lets you try it before committing to anything.
