Kai
AI executive assistant for email, meetings, calendar and tasks
Kai is a aI assistants tool for Freelancers and Small businesses, offered as paid ($20/mo). Popular alternatives include TwinMind, RunInfra, Cursor.
About Kai
Kai is an AI executive assistant from Morgen AG, the Zurich company behind the Morgen calendar app, led by CEO David Tedaldi. It reads your email, records meetings without a bot joining, watches your calendars and turns all of it into a list of what needs your decision, drafting replies and recaps but never sending or acting without your sign-off.
Kai sorts email into needs reply, FYI and waiting for reply, filters out noise, drafts replies in your style and nudges quiet threads. It captures meetings with live transcripts, writes summaries with owners and action items, and drafts the recap email. A unified calendar timeline, a daily brief, focus protection and an AI-ranked task list sit alongside chat across all your data, scheduled workflows, a Slack mention and an MCP server for handing tasks to Claude or ChatGPT. Plans are per seat: Base $20, Pro $50 and Ultra $100 a month, with Pro and Ultra including Morgen Pro.
It suits founders, executives and consultants buried in email and meetings. Superhuman is stronger as a pure email client and Granola as a meeting notepad; Kai spreads across both. Usage allowances are shown only as multiples, full call capture needs the Mac app, iOS is still in beta, and there is no Windows app or task manager integration beyond Morgen.
Kai launched as a full assistant on Product Hunt on October 13, 2026, finishing fifth of the day, after an earlier Chrome extension for meeting transcription. Buying tip: use the free trial allowance on a busy week to see how quickly you would hit Base limits.
