Skylight’s New AI Calendar Wants to Run Your Family Life

Skylight’s New AI Calendar Wants to Run Your Family Life

Skylight just unveiled the Calendar 2 at CES 2026, a slimmer AI-powered family organizer that syncs every calendar, shopping list, and fridge photo into one tidy 15-inch screen.

> At a Glance

> – Skylight launched Calendar 2 at CES 2026, sitting between the original and 27-inch Max

> – AI reads flyers, emails, and fridge photos to auto-update events and recipes

> – 1.3 million families already use Skylight’s bootstrapped, profitable platform

> – Why it matters: One screen now corrals sports apps, grocery lists, and meal plans for busy households

The company-once a digital-frame startup-has spent years turning wall-mounted displays into command centers for chaotic family logistics.

Smarter Hardware, Smarter Software

Calendar 2 keeps the swappable frames of its bigger sibling but trims down to a kitchen-friendly size. Inside, AI stitches Google, iCal, Microsoft, and youth-sports apps into a single color-coded timeline.

Parents can photograph a crumpled school flyer; the software parses dates and drops them into the shared view. Kids tap picture-based chores even before they can read.

From Meal Planning to Instacart

Beyond scheduling, Skylight tackles grocery fatigue:

debuts
  • Snap a photo of leftover ingredients
  • AI suggests recipes based on what’s on hand
  • One tap sends the ingredient list to Instacart
  • Calendar displays “Taco Tuesday” or full recipes

The bootstrapped firm reports profitability since launch and says Calendar 2 will ship after its CES reveal.

Key Takeaways

  • Calendar 2 slides between the 15-inch original and 27-inch Max
  • AI photo-scanning turns paper flyers and fridge shelves into events and recipes
  • Instacart integration auto-builds shopping lists from chosen meals
  • 1.3 million families already rely on Skylight’s subscription-free platform

Skylight’s bet: a single, AI-driven screen can replace the kitchen corkboard of scattered papers and forgotten appointments.
