#2Some Critique :
1) The twitter account seems suspended and github link is also dead at the end.
2) I had to scroll and read the fine print in second block to understand what this is about.
3) No privacy policy or any information about the founders

This thread is interactive with the site, so any comments could result in changes within minutes.
1) Fixed 2) I need a screenshot at the top showing how it schedules meetings for you powered by email. Its like Posterous, only for scheduling. 3) the project is going to be open source, so hopefully soon we'll have info on the founders.

#4You want access to read my company emails? As a sys admin, this is abhorrent.

#5I hope this works seamlessly in my emailing/scheduling workflow, or better yet replaces it entirely. Some quick feedback:
1. Terms of service seem over-bearing (see @whydoineedthis)
2. Show me a demo before making me provide personal info (email) and consent.
3. Yellow button on yellow background, ugh
4. "Made with happiness and abundant goodness." Cool, prove it. Show me who's behind this.

#6Come on fellas, you don’t even have a screenshot or a text-based list of reasons why I should spend my valuable time signing up for an account?
Why should I trust you guys with my critical data?
Adding some combination of “YC-alumni/backed” to showHN titles is a pet peeve that seems similar to click bait titles. It’s like name dropping in-lieu of properly describing the offering.
