First time I've seen something like this discussed so honestly. I suspect it won't be the last time. Hopefully to the benefit of consumers.
I feel like this is a great approach for bootstrapped and/or solo founders. Break the idea that some of these markets are huge defensible spaces requiring bootstrapped funding and higher teams.

#13I like their messaging and I'm more inclined to use a tool ran by a team/company like these guys.
Consider me a customer... whenever I clean up the backlog

#15What about a website caldendar platform where you only specify which day you will work and can be potentially contacted or not (so we have Not Working, Working Without Meetings, Working With Meetings on some hours) for a sync call ? This way it's not about booking a meeting but letting others know you're available. Does this exist ?

#16This is an interesting approach, but they’re awfully proud of themselves for charging 50% of what calendly charges. The biggest cost of a SaaS like this is the cost of sales…so if they can convince enough people with this tactic, it’ll work. But RabdomBugCo is paying Calendly $20k/mo to have an expensive account rep team answer their questions and $1k/mo for the technology.

#17Rough reminder for Calendly (and similar) that it's a feature, not a company.
