Q3 investor update outline
Malleable vs Motion
Intelligent scheduling at a price that makes sense.
Motion auto-schedules tasks into your calendar using AI — a genuinely useful idea. Malleable brings similar intelligence to scheduling while adding time tracking and a more transparent, conversational model. And at $9/month, it's a fraction of Motion's cost.
No credit card to start. Free forever on the Solo plan.
In fairness
Motion's automatic task scheduling is impressive when it works well. For people with complex task loads who want truly hands-off calendar management, the auto-schedule feature can be transformative.
Tell it what you need. It writes the calendar.
Type the sentence you would say to a coworker. Malleable reads it, schedules it on Google Calendar, and keeps your board and time tracking in the same line of sight.

The honest side-by-side.
Where Motion stops and where Malleable picks up. Read it straight, then decide for yourself.
Conversational AI vs auto-pilot scheduling
MOTION
Motion automatically places tasks in open calendar slots based on priority and deadline. The algorithm works behind the scenes. When it gets it right, it feels like magic — when it doesn't, the experience can feel chaotic.
MALLEABLE
Malleable proposes, you decide. Tell it what you want to accomplish and it suggests when and how — but you stay in the loop. Your calendar doesn't reorganize itself without your awareness.
Time tracking built in
MOTION
Motion focuses on getting work scheduled. It tracks tasks, projects, and due dates — but not actual time spent. Measuring real hours against what was planned requires a separate time tracking tool.
MALLEABLE
Malleable tracks actual time against every event. See not just what was planned, but what really happened — how long the client call ran, how much focus time you actually got, where the week went.
Public booking pages
MOTION
Motion handles internal scheduling well. Sharing availability with external contacts — clients, candidates, collaborators — requires a separate tool or integration.
MALLEABLE
Malleable includes booking pages for every account. Share a link, set your availability rules, and let anyone find time with you directly from your live calendar.
Pricing that fits the value
MOTION
Motion costs around $34/month (individual plan). For users who rely on it fully, that can be justified. But it's a significant commitment for scheduling software, and the auto-scheduling behavior can require careful tuning.
MALLEABLE
Malleable Pro is $9/month. Calendar sync, AI scheduling, time tracking, booking pages — everything included. No tier-based feature gating.
Comparison reflects publicly documented plans at time of writing. Motion is a trademark of its owner; Malleable is not affiliated with Motion.
One app, not a stack
Booking, scheduling, a board, and time tracking under one login. Stop paying for a tracker on top of your scheduling tool.
Your calendar stays yours
Google Calendar remains the source of truth with real two-way sync. Nothing to migrate, nothing to trust blindly.
Free to start, fair to grow
A genuinely free plan, then $9/mo when you need more. Annual billing brings two months free. No seats to count.
AI scheduling that keeps you in control.
Malleable gives you intelligent calendar assistance without ceding control to an algorithm. $9/month.
