Calendly alternatives

Calendly alternatives, with and without built-in video

Meeto turns each booking into its own browser video meeting and sends guests a reminder email on every plan, Free included; Meeto Pro costs $6.99 a month with the meetings included. Calendly's free plan gives 1 event type and 1 calendar, keeps reminders for paid plans and has no video of its own. Cal.com, TidyCal, Reclaim, SavvyCal and Google Calendar appointment schedules are compared below too, with sources.

What Calendly's free plan includes

Calendly Free includes 1 event type[1] and 1 calendar connection[2]. It has no video service of its own and adds Zoom, Google Meet, Teams or other conferencing links instead[3]. Automated reminders and the AI notetaker are on paid plans[4][5]; Standard costs $12 per seat a month billed monthly[6].

The tools below split into two groups: scheduling-only tools that add a link from your video app, and tools that host the meeting too. Meeto is in the second group: the booking creates the meeting, so there is one step less for you and your guest. The free scheduling tools comparison lines up the free plans alone.

How we chose these alternatives

Each product had to be available today and to publish its limits on its own pages. We compared them on the same points:

  • Free booking typesHow many kinds of meeting (event types, booking pages) the free plan allows.
  • Free calendarsHow many calendars the free plan checks for conflicts.
  • Video meetingWhether the tool runs the call itself, or adds a link from Zoom, Google Meet or Teams.
  • RemindersWhether guests get reminder emails before the meeting, and on which plan.
  • GuestsWhether a person booking needs an account. None of the tools here requires one.
  • PriceThe cheapest paid plan in USD as the vendor lists it, with its billing period.
