Bookable Schedule by Boomerang — 10x better than a scheduling link

Hi Product Hunters, This is Moah from Boomerang. We're so excited to introduce Bookable Schedule to you all. I wanted to share the backstory behind the Bookable Schedule. A couple of years ago, I was pretty burned out after 8 years as a startup founder. I took some time off from working on Boomerang full time. During that time, I started to do angel investing and productivity consulting while I figured out what to do next. I tried a few scheduling tools that were out there and they were convenient for me but I didn’t like how I came across. Especially for the meetings that I have asked for, it felt slightly icky for me to send a link and say "please go find a time". I didn’t like that it came across as pawning off the labor of scheduling to the other party especially when I am the one asking for this meeting to happen. I've also tried other tools that let you insert meeting times into your email as clickable links. I found they were easier on the recipient's workflow. The downside was that the times I inserted in the emails were static and not up to date with my latest availability as my calendar was booking up. The other common pitfall was the times that I sent were in the past if the other party was away for a long vacation or just didn't get to the email in time. That often led to frustration or miscommunication and people defaulted back to "How about 3pm on Tuesday?" type of emails. I wanted the holy grail of a meeting scheduling tool that was as streamlined for me as it was for my guest. That led me to agitating internally to tackle the meeting scheduling problems with the unique technology we already have around live image generation inside an email from calendar schedules. As we were building it, the beta product got me personally re-energized to take on the challenge of growing Boomerang to be the best solution for meeting scheduling. I'm super excited to be able to share it with everyone. Here is what Bookable Schedule brings to the table: For you the person scheduling: 🖥️ 📱 Right in your Gmail or our iOS App ↖️↖️ Just a couple clicks to schedule each new meeting 🗓️ 🗓️ Integrate multiple calendars. No effort required to keep your availability updated. 🛠️ ⚙️ Customize for complete control over your schedule with buffer times, max number of meetings, minimum advance notice, reminder emails 👩‍💻 🎧 Zoom, Google Meet integration 🧑‍💼👩‍💼 Auto-invites teammates or additional stakeholders as the meetings get scheduled 🌎 🕞 Personalize on a per-meeting basis including dual timezone display For your guest (aka anyone you are trying to schedule a meeting with): ❌ No power dynamics. No awkward scheduling links. 🎁. Specific time slots with their name and email address pre-filled. 📥 Right in their email regardless of what email app they use. 🔥 Overlay with their own availability without leaving their email to find the time to meet. For both parties 📅 Magic Live Calendar - Instant confirmation eliminates back-and-forth emails ✨ Error free experience.

We hope you’ll love Bookable Schedule, a more respectful alternative to a booking link, as much as our beta users do. Hope to hear from you all on how we can improve it even more.

Well done! Needed, beautiful, and dead simple. It’s like when Buddy the Elf discovered the best cup of coffee. You did it! But this time for real…you made the best scheduling tool in the world! Congrats! And that video! 👏👏👏🤣👍

To begin, this is a fantastic video! Just caught my eye, and like a boomerang, I'll keep returning to it :P - Solves a major problem that no scheduling app has been able to solve. Hopefully, the solution will be as inventive as the video:))

As founders who are constantly arranging meetings on a daily basis, being able to schedule them within your inbox can save a lot of time. Great job by @cokodude @ayemoah & the team behind Bookable Schedule. Congrats on your PH launch!

Another great innovation by Boomerang. This is actually a huge improvement over what most calendar booking sites offer.

Love the concept - yet to trial. I do have a quick question - is it possible to embed Bookable into a platform I’m building to make it easier for people to schedule meetings with each other?

I've been using Boomerang for years & absolutely love it. Boomerang has made a significantly positive impact on my email workflow & sanity. I am sure that Bookable Schedule will do much the same for managing meetings. So far, it's been great. I made a quick video walkthrough of features with demo: https://youtu.be/LgqweiC1EjU

?makers Love the story and love the product. Congrats, will definitely give it a try 🚀

Will people who use platforms other than Gmail be able to see the embedded calendar in their inbox?

It's fantastic and will save you a lot of time. I'm absolutely going to give it a shot.

Although it's April Fool's Day, this product is no joke!

Fantastic! ?makers, what's your vision for all those links I have to send through Linkedin?

Fantastic video! Sounds amazing. Congratulations on the launch!

I've been using this since it was in beta. Way better than directing people out of your email.

This looks awesome - especially love the product video 😂

Fun demo video :)

Boomerang always had potential but never clicked for me. Let’s see how this one goes

Congrats on the PH launch. I'll give it a shot.

Wow, Innovative idea and great video too. Congrats !.
