SavvyCal
Scheduling tool designed to be polite and recipient-friendly, putting the invitee's experience first.
Scheduling
Free tier
Overview
SavvyCal takes a different approach to scheduling by focusing on the recipient's experience. Invitees can overlay their own calendar to find mutual availability, rank their preferred times, and book without the cold, transactional feel of typical scheduling tools.
The free tier includes one calendar link with basic features. The Classic plan at $12/user/month unlocks unlimited links, team scheduling, and integrations. It is intentionally a smaller, more focused product than Calendly.
