when they try to block their time out.

The first is that it's not adaptive.

So it doesn't sort of accommodate inbound conflicts.

The second and the one that we really try to address is it's just not realistic.

You know, if you're the kind of person who has a really slammed calendar, you need to be available for meetings.

You need to be available for collaboration.

And actually, if you block out your whole calendar, you're probably creating even more work for yourself because now you've got like people pinging you on Slack and saying, hey, there's no time on your calendar.

Can I get a few minutes?

You know, can you move this thing?

And so what we do is we actually kind of act like a circuit breaker for your calendar, where if you've got plenty of time during the week to get your stuff done, we'll kind of look at that and we'll run simulations.

We run millions of simulations daily against calendars and basically try to figure out like, are you running out of time to do this thing?

And if the answer is no, we'll put the time down, but we'll mark it as free.

In fact, when we scheduled this meeting, it overlapped with a habit that I had, but that habit was marked as free.

What's the habit?

The habit was reviewing PRs.

I spend a lot of time here reviewing pull requests and making sure that the team's staying on track.

And so that gets moved to later in the afternoon.

And actually, it got marked as busy.

I was just looking at my calendar because their claim was like, hey, you're running out of time to get this thing done.

Currently, right now, we're a free product.
