Zoom + Slack Sync by Reclaim.ai — Meetings - distractions = better (& fewer) meetings
Automatically sync your Slack status to "in a meeting" and/or Do Not Disturb when you join or leave a Zoom — even if it's not on your calendar, or it ends early. Keep your meetings distraction-free when you connect Zoom + Slack + Google Calendar.

This is the tool I have recommended most in the past year and half or so since I found it. I was trying to do what it does manually with google calendar and excel, and it was way to much work. I think this is the future of productivity.

Just tossing some Reclaim love into the pile...I love the way I can defend my deep work time but easily adjust my schedule if something pops up while reinforcing my working hours. I also love that I can manage my tasks/time blocks from Slack. Looking forward to using the Zoom tool! Thanks, Team Reclaim!
I've really quite enjoyed the subtle life improvement from having Reclaim keep my work calendar representing my personal calendar (blocking out time for doctor's appointments and the like). These kinds of incremental improvements show that the product is always improving, expanding. Though I'm trying to get away from Zoom. :)
@lee_fuhr Thanks so much for the kind feedback and support! FWIW, even Eric Yuan says he's suffering from Zoom fatigue 🤪 https://www.wsj.com/articles/eve...
@henry_shapiro Yeah and Zoom itself (not video calling broadly) exacerbates the problem. We're looking at other platforms (Around 2.0, Vowel (Beta), Sessions, etc.) that are more broadly functional, less overwhelming with unfriendly enterprisey settings, and friendlier and more human in presentation, UI, copy, etc.
Reclaim has helped me to manage my calendars in a more meaningful way. Of course, helping me reclaim my hours.
Great work here
Howdy ProductHunt! 🤠
It's been awhile, but we're super excited to share Reclaim's Zoom + Slack integration with you. It's an amazing way to keep your video calls distraction-free without lifting a finger.
Without further ado, let's talk about what the heck's going on here 👇
This is the ONLY Zoom + Slack integration that keeps your Slack status up-to-date with Zoom calls, letting you communicate context to your colleagues asynchronously without sacrificing your focus:
🛡 Automatically set your Slack status when you join a Zoom
🆓 Automatically clear your Slack status when you leave a Zoom
🗓 Works for any Zoom call, even if it's not on your calendar
🙅♀️ Set DND automatically for Zoom calls
📣 Broadcast context to your teammates to avoid interruptions
Reclaim's Slack integration has helped thousands of busy people to automatically set their status based on intelligently-detected calendar events.
But as we heard feedback from our users, we realized an obvious gap: if you're connecting with someone over Zoom and don't have an event on the calendar, OR if you're in a meeting that ends early, your Slack status doesn't know!
So we built this integration to help fill that gap, and after using it for weeks ourselves, we've been pretty ecstatic with the results. Now, anytime we hop into a Zoom meeting, our status gets set -- and anytime we leave, even if the meeting ends early (woohoo!) our Slack status clears out. ✨
Getting started is easy:
1. Sign up for Reclaim (or login if you're already a user)
2. Once you've onboarded, head over to Settings -> Integrations in our app
3. Add the Slack integration if you haven't already
4. Add the Zoom integration
5. Done!
We plan to keep this feature free forever, even as we launch our paid plans in 2022. We want everyone to have the power to go heads-down when they need it, and we think this feature is one of the best ways to do that.
Have fun!
@lucjan_suski Thank you so much! We can't wait to share what's next with you.
Reclaim is one of the best new productivity apps I have found. Really smart. I hope it takes off as it saves me many hours each week.
