Meeto Pro adds cloud recording, a transcript and an AI summary of each booked call for $6.99 a month.

Why people switch from Google Calendar appointment schedules to Meeto
Guests get a reminder before every booked call, even on a free account.
The booking, the call, its recording and an AI summary sit in one place for $6.99 a month.
Apple iCloud and other CalDAV calendars work as well as Google Calendar, and the booking page lives outside Google.
A call button on your website and instant rooms without an account come with the same account.
Can you keep Google Calendar and book through Meeto?
Yes. Moving the booking page does not mean leaving Google Calendar: Meeto connects to it, hides the times you are busy and puts each new booking in your calendar.
- Connect Google Calendar through the Google Calendar integration. Free accounts connect 2 calendars; Pro connects up to 5.
- Copy your availability: working hours, buffers, minimum notice, a daily limit and days off.
- Turn on the reminder for the meeting type, so the host and the guest get an email an hour before.
- Replace the old link on your website and email signature with your Meeto booking page, then make a test booking from another address.
For repeating meetings with the same people, such as a weekly client check-in, you do not need a booking page at all: schedule a repeating meeting and invite the guests by email. They get the invitation, can say whether they will come, and get a reminder before each meeting.

Frequently asked questions
Are Google Calendar appointment schedules free?
Yes, in a basic form: a personal Google Account can publish one booking page, with Google Meet as the video call. More booking pages, automatic reminder emails and checking several calendars need a Google One Premium, Google AI or eligible Workspace subscription. Meeto's free booking page sends guests a reminder an hour before each booking.
Does Google send reminders for appointment schedules?
Only with a premium subscription; with a free personal account there are no automatic reminder emails. Meeto sends guests a reminder an hour before each booking on every plan, the free one included.
Can I use Zoom or another video tool with appointment schedules?
Not automatically. Google's help says to choose «None / to be specified later», then edit each booked event and add the link to your conferencing service. Meeto creates its own meeting for every booking, so there is no link to add.
How long can a booked Meeto call last?
A free Meeto meeting runs for 60 minutes, with warnings 5 minutes and 1 minute before the end. Meeto Pro, at $6.99 a month, has no time limit.
