Paste the mess.
Get the event.

An email, a conference PDF, a screenshot of a flyer — Quick Add Calendar reads it, pulls out the name, time, place, and details, and hands you a Google Calendar event ready to save.

Free and open source. Runs on your own Anthropic API key — about a cent or two per event.

WHAT YOU HAVE WHAT YOU GET EVENT Dinner with Sam WHEN Thu 20 Aug · 7:30 – 9:00 PM WHERE Nopa 560 Divisadero St DETAILS Booked under Ronan · table for four

Three ways in

Whatever form the thing arrived in, that's the form you can hand it.

Text

Paste an email, a message, a forwarded confirmation. "Next Thursday 7:30pm" resolves against today's actual date.

PDF

A conference agenda or a class syllabus comes back as separate events, not one merged blob.

Screenshot

Copy a flyer or a ticket and paste it straight into the box. No transcribing.

How it works

  1. Paste or attach Type, paste a screenshot, or attach a PDF. Nothing is sent until you press the button.
  2. Review what it found Every event lands in an editable card. Dates that were inferred rather than stated are flagged, so a guess never slips through unnoticed.
  3. Save to your calendar Approve the ones you want. Google Calendar opens with everything already filled in.

The careful parts

It can't quietly spend your money

Every request is priced with Anthropic's free token counter before it's sent, and blocked above a cap you set. Long PDFs are the expensive case — you get the real number and the offer of a page range that fits, not a refusal.

It asks for almost nothing

Two permissions: local storage, and network access to api.anthropic.com. It cannot read your browsing history, your tabs, or the contents of any page.

Nothing is saved without you

No event reaches your calendar until you've seen it and approved it. Wrong dates are easy to catch and annoying to clean up, so the review step isn't optional.

No account, no server

It runs on your own Anthropic API key, held on your device. There's no backend, no analytics, and no telemetry — nothing to sign up for and nothing collecting you.
