Fokus review
A broad AI planning workspace for turning priorities into scheduled work.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Sep 2026
Fokus brings tasks, calendars, notes, objectives, and AI assistance into one daily planning workspace. It is aimed at people who want an AI-first way to organize priorities, schedule work, and connect personal productivity with email and workplace tools. The product is available on web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and through a Chrome extension, giving it a wide platform footprint.
The free beta includes tasks, calendar, notes, objectives, and AI features during the public beta. The published Pro preview is €15 per month when billed annually and adds auto-scheduling, time-blocking, Captain Fokus, AI crew tasks, and 20+ integrations. The pricing page states that users are not charged until the beta ends. This makes Fokus easy to evaluate during the beta, while buyers planning for continued use should consider the transition to the paid Pro tier.
Its standout area is the connection between AI actions and time management. Captain Fokus can create, find, move, complete, and schedule workspace items, while automatic scheduling considers meetings, deadlines, priorities, and energy. Objective decomposition turns goals into concrete tasks, and Crew Tasks can run from schedules, calendar events, email labels, or manual triggers. Calendar synchronization covers Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar; Gmail workflows support triage, drafting, labeling, and archiving. Fokus suits users who want one AI-led system across planning and execution. Those seeking only a lightweight task list may find its wider feature set unnecessary, especially where optional meeting transcription, email assistance, voice, and booking-page capabilities are involved.
