About Sift
The AI planner that connects your entire workflow into one intelligent agent
What is Sift?
Sift is an AI-powered planner that lives inside your existing tools — Canvas, Google Calendar, Outlook, Gmail, and iMessage. Instead of being another app to check, Sift is an intelligent agent that connects everything and actively manages your schedule, tasks, and communications so you can focus on what matters.
Send Sift anything — assignments, reminders, screenshots, or random thoughts — and it turns them into tasks, schedules, and plans that actually stick. Whether you're a college student managing coursework or a professional juggling meetings and deadlines, Sift adapts to your workflow.

Built by Lucence Labs
Sift is developed by Lucence Labs. We built Sift because we were tired of juggling a dozen apps to stay organized. Calendar here, tasks there, assignments somewhere else, and none of them talking to each other. Sift is the AI agent we wished we had — one that connects everything and actually manages your day.
