The European Union recently published a list of tech acquisitions over the past 18 months, revealing that Apple acquired Mayday Labs Inc. on April 3, 2024. Mayday, known for its AI-powered scheduling platform, was officially sunset on May 1, 2024.
About Mayday Labs
Before its acquisition, Mayday was an AI-driven scheduling tool for Mac, iOS, and iPad, described as a “co-pilot” for calendars, task management, and scheduling. Its core features included:
- Auto-scheduling: Automatically finding ideal meeting times without manual coordination.
- Personalized Task Management: Balancing priorities using AI to optimize time for tasks.
- Team Scheduling: Simplifying event creation by suggesting times based on shared availability.
- Dynamic Rescheduling: Adapting to shifting priorities with automatic and one-click rescheduling.
- AI-Powered Scheduling Links: Offering controlled availability without overcommitting.

While it’s unclear how or when these features will be incorporated, the timing suggests they may debut in iOS 19. Apple Calendar, which lacks major AI features compared to other Apple apps, could see significant upgrades if Mayday’s technology is integrated.
Additionally, Mayday’s deep task and schedule management capabilities could bolster Siri’s upcoming AI enhancements, aligning with Apple’s broader push for smarter, context-aware virtual assistants.
