description Clockwise Overview
Clockwise was a calendar optimization service designed to reduce fragmented working days. It analyzed shared schedules and moved eligible flexible meetings to create longer periods for focused work. Its team-oriented approach addressed a common problem: an apparently open calendar can still leave little useful time when meetings are scattered throughout the day. The product connected scheduling with protected focus blocks, making it relevant to organizations balancing collaboration and individual work.
However, it should now be described as a discontinued service rather than an available recommendation. In its official transition announcement, Clockwise states that the team is joining Salesforce and that the product is no longer available. Its historical distinction was coordinating calendar changes across a team, rather than merely adding tasks to one person's schedule.
