Looks interesting, but would really require some velocity. There's the social problem of requesting others to install the app by an individual. I'm not gonna ask my friends to install bail just in case they'd like to cancel, because I might want to cancel.

This concept is begging for integrations into existing calendar apps, not being an app itself.

Might be absolutely right about this - thanks for the feedback. Will probably start with a google integration in the first instance. As you can probably tell, this concept is still in its infancy

Hi, I created a quick landing page to validate an idea for an app.

I'll be honest, the idea isn't mine. I saw it suggested in a Twitter post which had huge traction, and decided to run with it.

At the moment I'm just trying to refine the concept and get an idea of whether there really is space for something like this out there

Do people send calendar invites when hanging out with friends?

Personally, if a meetup did actually make it into my calendar, I would not ship it to a friend.
