Google Calendar integration is live

Two-way Google Calendar sync keeps your plan and your calendar in lockstep.

Release Notes||3 min read

What shipped

asambl now syncs with Google Calendar in both directions. Events you create in asambl (training sessions, focus time, social commitments, deadlines) automatically appear in Google Calendar. And your existing Google events sync into asambl every thirty minutes, so your calendar view and planning agents always know what is already on your schedule.

For calendar apps that are not Google Calendar, you can export your plan as a standard .ics file and import it wherever you like.

How it works

  • Connect your Google account from Settings > Integrations, which opens a consent screen in your browser
  • Once connected, events sync automatically in both directions with no manual push needed
  • Google events appear in your asambl calendar view, colour-coded by category
  • Events you create or update in asambl flow back to a dedicated asambl calendar in Google that you can toggle on or off
  • Prefer another app? Use Export as .ics instead and import the file manually

Privacy and permissions

The integration requests full calendar access so asambl can read your events and create new ones. Your OAuth tokens are stored in your operating system keychain and stay on your machine. Your data stays on your computer; when you use an AI feature, only the information needed for that specific request goes to asambl's managed AI, and it is not retained long-term. If you disconnect, asambl deletes all synced events and tokens immediately.

AI planning is optional. Switch it off and asambl stops drafting your week; the rest of the app keeps working, with no prompts leaving your machine.

Why this matters

Planning in asambl is only useful if it connects to where you actually look during the week. For most people, that is their calendar. Two-way sync means your plan stays current with reality, and asambl's planners draft around your existing commitments, with conflict resolution reconciling any cross-area clashes instead of leaving them to you.

What is next

Since this shipped, asambl added automatic conflict resolution: a conflict detector finds cross-area scheduling and energy clashes across your week, and the conductor reconciles them before drafting, so the plan works around your existing commitments and energy patterns instead of clashing with them.
