Summary

  • Linkdaze’s smart household calendar tablet pairs shared scheduling with an AI meal planner that turns photos of recipes or school lunch menus into meal plans and shopping lists.
  • Google, iCloud, Outlook, Yahoo and Cozi syncing lets families merge different calendar systems on one color-coded touchscreen instead of switching to a single app.
  • The device, launched in December, comes in 10.1-inch and 15.6-inch versions and also handles chores, rewards, shopping lists and photo-frame display.
  • Pricing starts at $119.99 for the 10.1-inch model, undercutting rival Skylight’s $149.99 10-inch option while avoiding the competitor’s $79-a-year subscription for extra features.
  • The pitch targets back-to-school households, but the tablet is also positioned for college apartments and other shared living setups that need one place to coordinate routines.
