About Mayday
Who We Are
Mayday is creating the first truly smart calendar that learns what's important, so your schedule always reflects your priorities. It helps you focus on the things that matter while avoiding the things that don't.
We're on a mission to help people make the most of their time. We want to help everyone create more balance in their workday, combat burnout, schedule smarter, and ultimately be more effective with how they spend their time.
Our Team
Founded in 2019, we're a remote-first startup based in Toronto, Canada. Our team consists of like-minded designers and engineers who all share a passion for building purposeful products that help people make better use of their time.
Our Culture
Mayday offers a refreshing change to startup and corporate culture. We've created an internal environment that mirrors the product we're building—one that respects time and promotes balance. We don't believe in endless meetings or hustle culture that results in burnout. We take time seriously, so we're laser-focused on our team investing their time wisely—to own, lead, teach, learn, and improve.
Our culture is built on the principle that better time management starts from within. By practicing what we preach, we create a workplace where productivity and well-being go hand in hand.
