Getting Started
Welcome to Trevor AI! This quick start guide will get you planning your day in under 5 minutes.
Step 1: Sign Up
Go to app.trevorai.com and create an account. You can sign up with Google, Microsoft, Facebook, or Email.
Step 2: Connect a Calendar
Trevor AI works best when connected to your existing calendar. During the onboarding walkthrough (or later via Account Settings):
- Click Connect next to Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Apple iCloud, or CalDAV.
- Sign in and grant permissions.
- In Calendar Options, choose which calendars to show and set one as your Scheduling Calendar — this is where scheduled tasks will appear.
Without a connected calendar, tasks are scheduled to an internal "Trevor AI" calendar that's only visible within the app. See Integrations for details on each provider.
Step 3: Create Your First Task
In the Task Hub (left panel), type a task title into the Add New Task field and press Enter. For example: "Prepare project proposal". Trevor's AI will automatically assign a predicted duration.
You can also:
- Type
#followed by a list name to assign the task to a specific list. - Include a date/time in natural language, like "Review budget tomorrow at 2pm", to create and schedule it in one step.
Step 4: Schedule It
There are several ways to schedule a task — pick whichever feels most natural:
- Drag & drop the task from the Task Hub into your calendar at the desired time.
- Click the scheduling icon on the task to see smart scheduling suggestions, then click your preferred time slot.
- Hover over the scheduling icon to preview the AI's top suggestion in your timeline, then long-press to accept it instantly.
- Ask the AI Chat Assistant — open the chat (bottom-right) and say something like "Schedule Prepare project proposal for tomorrow at 2pm". The AI can also auto-schedule multiple tasks at once. See AI Chat Assistant for more.
Your scheduled task now appears as a calendar event, synced to your scheduling calendar. See Scheduling for all scheduling methods.
Step 5: See It on Your Calendar
Switch to your calendar app (Google Calendar, Outlook, iCloud, etc.) — you'll see the scheduled task there too, synced in real-time. Any changes you make in Trevor are reflected in your calendar, and vice versa.
What's Next?
- Plan your whole day — Try the Plan My Day widget ( icon, top-left of calendar) to auto-schedule multiple tasks at once.
- Chat with Trevor — Open the AI Chat Assistant (floating button, bottom-right) and type things like "Schedule my top 3 tasks for this afternoon".
- Connect task apps — Sync tasks from Todoist, Google Tasks, or Microsoft To Do to schedule them in your calendar.
- Track progress — Check the Progress & Reports dashboard to see your scheduling habits over time.
- Morning briefing — Enable the Start My Day email for a daily digest with your plan and AI coaching.
