We think the problem most knowledge workers are facing when planning their time is getting all the information from different sources into the same place and navigate/keep the workspace updated.

We think that our solution to productivity makes us quite different from the other tools in the market: Consolidation + Time Blocking. Happy to share more about this

Regarding our roadmap, we are still working on nailing the individual experience, before we look at how team member can interact with each others in a more productive way

Any way / certification we can get to be approved on your Google Workspace?

The Microsoft suite' integration is something we want to work on real soon.

We didn't do it so far because our main problem was product-market fit, and increasing the addressable market was secondary.

I agree with everything you said, and thanks for the suggestions!

We'll definitely try to do a better job explaining the permissions, thanks for pointing this out.

Unfortunately a fully functioning calendar is key to our product and we decided not to limit features at the moment. We'll consider a "lighter" approach in the future

Hello that's absolutely a fair question, I think that all the apps mentioned are working on similar problems and they are doing a great job!

A lot of our users have been using either Sunsama or Motion and I'm sure that some of our users moved to them after trying Akiflow. We have many differences in terms of features, UI and UX. For example, Motion puts a lot of focus on ai powered scheduling while we are more focused on making sure the users can plan their time "intentionally".

One thing I learned building Akiflow is that productivity is extremely personal and there's no right or wrong. I'd encourage to give a try to all and see what works

Thanks for the question! We didn't really focus on the enterprise market yet. So far our customers are individual users looking for a time blocking solution that goes beyond calendar features. The main target is busy professionals like managers and founders, the response has been very good and we really feel like we've been scraping the surface of the market.

Regarding the CAC, so far the vast majority of our growth was organic we invested very little in paid advertising.
