Calendly is a scheduling platform that handles the work around meetings, from sharing a booking link to capturing notes and following up. Visitors pick a time that matches the host's connected calendars, and automations send reminders by email or text. Newer additions include Callie, a beta AI assistant that coordinates times when added to an email thread, and Notetaker, which records meetings and delivers recaps with action items. A free plan covers one event type and one calendar connection, Standard costs $10 per seat per month, Teams costs $16 per seat per month, and Enterprise starts at $15,000 per year.
Calendly serves consultants, coaches, recruiters, account executives and customer success managers who spend their days arranging calls with people outside their company. Sales and support teams use round-robin scheduling and routing forms to match leads with the right person, and enterprises with strict security needs get SSO, SAML and audit logs. Freelancers and small business owners appreciate that invitees do not need an account or a paid seat, so booking stays frictionless for clients. Operations leads can manage event types centrally across a team without chasing individual calendars.
A freelancer can share a link, let a client choose a slot and collect a deposit through Stripe or PayPal at booking. A sales team can embed a scheduler on a landing page, qualify visitors with a routing form and send meetings straight to Salesforce. Recruiters can offer interview times, send text reminders to cut no-shows and keep everything on synced calendars. After a call, Notetaker can produce a recap and a drafted follow-up email, and Callie can find the next time. Integrations with HubSpot, Mailchimp, Marketo, Pardot, Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams connect it to existing workflows.
