being late less often. not having to check calendar and wonder if its a zoom or google meet, and seeing the days schedule from the menu bar all add up to compounded daily value.
$10 a month is a little steep, but I don't think the "people that have a lot of meetings" audience is super price sensitive.
I love all the comments about the price. It lets me know people really think this looks great and would work for them, but they are just off-put by the price. Stick to the price, the ones that sign up will be loyal. Adjust later if need be. Good job. It seems to scratch an itch.
just started using this yesterday and I'm hooked. I have to be in a ton of meetings and as much as wish meetings would go away, no such luck. being late less often. not having to check calendar and wonder if its a zoom or google meet, and seeing the days schedule from the menu bar all add up to compounded daily value. $10 a month is a little steep, but I don't think the "people that have a lot of meetings" audience i…

I use Fantastical 3 which not just puts a calendar in your menu bar but also solves for most (if not all) of your calendaring needs. All of it for ~40$ a year which allows you to use it also on your Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. P.S: Not affiliated with Fantastical in any way, just a happy and paying user for a few years now.
>Sensitive user data like calendar events don’t pass through our servers. This could be a selling feature, but it isn't clear from your privacy policy that calendar events don't go through your servers. You might want to make that clearer and upfront in your privacy policy (and possibly make that promise separate from the clause that lets you change the policy at any time, or at least commit to notifying users of cha…

I don’t think so because the notifications in chrome get buried for me. Email alerts for lost in the deluge of work emails. The Apple Watch helps a lot actually
Then won't notifications from this utility also get buried?
I think the idea is that the upcoming calendar/appointment notification is live and always on the menubar. See example screenshot from their web landing page: https://superpowered.me/static/media/menubar.aaa56b48.png
I'm building a similar calendar notification tool for personal use on Windows so I understand the value of this. Calendar notifications via email and "reminders" on the iPhone are not effective for my workflow and I need something that's always active on my menu bar.
If you don’t want to spend 10$/month for Superpowered, checkout trymeeter.com. My cofounder and I built Meeter about a year ago and it’s fully free currently.

Thanks for the feedback. We'd like to fall into the category of other consumer SaaS products like Superhuman and Vimcal. > since it's an Electron based widget, is the memory overhead considerable for just a calendar widget? Great question. In my menu bar right now, the app's using ~150MB. > Also, how does this YC Launch work? Every startup in YC gets one YC Launch where they're featured on the front page for the day.…
150MB might not seem like much, but it really is a lot. iStat Menus, which is tracking a lot more data across my system to render its multiple graphs is using ~85MB total. Bearing in mind that many users are going to have 5 things like this in their menubar, they can't all use this amount.
Is Superpowered really a wise name choice? If you look at https://superpowered.com/ , you'll see that it's in use by another startup. They're doing something completely different (mobile sound SDKs), but still, it's not like it's a personal blog or niche webshop etc. that you may hope buying at a reasonable price one day.
