Skills

A skill is a capability you switch on. Out of the box Carae answers, remembers and reminds; skills are how it learns your routines, your tools and your quirks. There are over 150 built-in AI skills, and together they define what your assistant can do.

What a skill is

Each skill is one focused ability with a clear job: a morning brief, a habit tracker, a packing list, a weekly review. Install the ones that match your life and ignore the rest. Browse the full catalogue at carae.ai/skills, or just ask in chat: "what skills do you have for travel?"

Installing and uninstalling

Tell Carae in chat and it's done:

• "Set up a habit tracker." Carae installs the skill and asks what you want to track.
• "Uninstall the news brief." Gone, no hard feelings.

You can install a healthy number of skills per day (8 on Trial and Lite, 12 on Companion, 16 on Pro), so a rainy Sunday of setting up your assistant is entirely possible.

Configuring in plain language

No settings screens. Schedules are sentences: "send my weekly review on Fridays at four" just works.

The Morning Brief goes further with custom sections. Tell Carae "add a section to my brief with the top three AI headlines" and tomorrow it is there, alongside your calendar and the weather. You can keep 1 custom section on Trial and Lite, 3 on Companion and 5 on Pro.

Here is what one looks like landing in your chat:

The catalogue, by life area

Skills cover the whole of your week, not just work:

• Daily life and home: reminders, grocery lists, meal planning, home maintenance, birthdays.
• Productivity: morning brief, calendar assistant, free-slot finder, weekly review, focus timer.
• Knowledge: web research, reading list, idea capture, flashcards, news digests.
• Health: habit and sleep tracking, hydration, medication reminders, workout summaries.
• Money: spending pulse, savings goals, budget coaching, invoice tracking.
• Travel: trip planner, flight tracker, packing lists.
• Writing and creative: editor, translator, image and music studios.
• Work, developer and CRM: standups, GitHub, Linear, Slack digests, HubSpot and Salesforce briefs, and more.

What the plans unlock

Every plan includes the everyday essentials. Lite adds work tools like free-slot finding and budget coaching. Companion opens the health integrations, team tools and the creative studios. Pro unlocks the developer suite and building your own skills in The Forge.

A day with skills on

You wake to a brief that already knows about the 9am standup. At lunch, "log that I drank a litre of water" updates your hydration streak. On the walk home, "add socks to the packing list" lands in Friday's trip. None of it felt like using software.
