(a true story)

Before Inku
Before Inku, overwhelmed

"Opens phone to check the time. Twenty minutes later: watching a hamster eat a tiny burrito."

After Inku
After Inku, calm

"Glances at desk. Cat avatar says 'only two meetings, you got this.' Makes coffee. Life is good."

Don't take our word for it. Take theirs.

"As a chronic multitasker compounded by ADHD, this is a life hack that actually works to keep me on task!"

Frequently Asked Questions

When does Inku ship?

Inku ships mid 2026. We raised over $280,000 on Kickstarter (18x our goal, funded in 6 minutes) and are actively in production. We send regular updates to all customers.

What calendars and apps does Inku work with?

Inku integrates with Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, Todoist, TickTick, Notion, Google Tasks, Microsoft To Do, Apple Reminders, and any app that supports CalDAV or ICS. We're adding new integrations regularly.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 30 days on a single USB-C charge. E-ink displays use almost no power. The screen stays visible even when the device isn't actively refreshing. Think of it like a Kindle for your calendar.

Do I need a subscription?

No. Lifetime access to the Inku companion app is included free with every device. One purchase, everything included forever. No subscription needed, ever.

How is this different from just checking my phone?

Every time you pick up your phone to check your calendar, you get pulled into notifications, social media, and email. Inku is a distraction-free desk calendar that sits quietly showing only your schedule. No pings, no temptations, no 20-minute scroll. It's the "glance and know" experience you can't get from any screen that also has Instagram on it.

Do I need the app to use Inku?

The free companion app (iOS and Android) handles initial setup: connecting your calendars, choosing themes, uploading avatars. After that, Inku works independently on your desk. You only need the app when you want to change settings.

What if I don't like it?

We offer a 30-day return policy, no questions asked. If Inku doesn't change your mornings, send it back and we'll refund you in full. We can afford to make this promise because most people who start using it keep using it every single day.

Is Inku a good gift?

Inku is one of the most personal desk gifts you can give. Upload the recipient's pet or favorite character as a custom avatar, and it becomes a one-of-a-kind desk calendar that comments on their day, writes haikus, and even roasts their overbooked schedule. Great for birthdays, holidays, or anyone who lives by their calendar.

Is $250+ a lot for a calendar?

We get it. But here's the math: Inku replaces your morning phone-checking habit (which costs you ~20 minutes a day in distraction), includes a lifetime app worth $60 on its own, and lasts years. Compare that to a $300 iPad or a $200 smart display that needs a subscription. Plus, 30-day returns if it's not for you.

You made it this far. We think you'd really like this.
