"without your calendar" got me hooked to look further. Its a simple solution but I think it would be great! Reduces attention bandwidth without looking at the whole calendar. Not sure if you guys are intending to have a windows version?

ever since i started using superpowered i haven't even opened google cal. literally. crazy simple and useful product
I'm currently using Meeting Bar (https://github.com/leits/MeetingBar) for this. The UX of Superpowered looks great; will definitely follow this product! đ
@swapagarwal Excited for you to try it, Swapnil! Let us know how you find it :)
@swapagarwal Wonder what the benefits are over MeetingBar... Because at this point I don't see any. MeetingBar also supports Teams, and I can name one other huge benefit for MeetingBar: it's $120 a year cheaper.
@swapagarwal @joid MeetingBar does not integrate with google calendar but requires you to use the default mac calendar if i recall correctly
@swapagarwal @danielschlossfr Oh, that could be indeed. But if you add Google Calendar to Mac calendar.app? Should probably work, I guess.
@swapagarwal @joid yeah it will but not very well. Apple Calendar <> Google Calendar does not sync well if you don't use the apple calendar as interface.
Nice product. Can you please explain the logic behind the $10/m price for this product while, for example, Fantastical (best app of 2020) cost ~40 per year and has all the features + more?
@vladdesign Hey Vladimir, great question :)
Iâm an ex-Fantastical user myself. At first it was great, but eventually I just stopped using it. I found myself going to Google Calendar all the time instead. Iâve seen tons of people online dissatisfied as well.
As for us, we started developing just ~4 weeks ago, so new features are coming every few days (literally). Youâll be one of our early users and get to give feedback on our direction as we grow.
Hope that helps :)
This is awesome! Checking my calendar constantly is a huge disruption of my workflow. Thanks for sharing!
Congrats on the launch! Love the design :)
*super* useful tool :)
Will you offer link integrations for other video conferencing software?
Huge congratulations on the launch! Blown away by how simple & easy it is. Mad props to the entire team.
Wow, this seems to solve a great pain I have. I have tried out virtually every extension for Google calendar and none of them works for me. Any chance you are planning to extend this to other OS?
A happy user here! Superpowered is a simple and awesome product that makes it easy to not miss a meeting. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations on launching the app from MeetingBar team!
It's great to see that our work with @nathan from Next Meeting, @ellenli from Up Next, @patrice_becker & @leonhardsoenke from Meeter inspires others to new launches!
I've been a user of Fantastical for 8 years. They released a feature that's pretty much this a year ago or so.
Can you highlight the major differences? Maybe I'm missing something.
Such an awesome, convenient and irreplaceable product! Thanks for it and congrats on the launch team Superpowered!
Have to point out I get all that and more with https://flexibits.com/fantastical sitting in my menu bar and I just type, no need to navigate with the mouse so it's even faster to throw a quick reminder or event in. It also does superb parsing of foreign timezons for events (smarter than Siri).
- I like the smart packaging of functionality - seems intuitive
- $10 a month strikes me as quite expensive for an add-on for Google Calendar.
Will test and decide...
I've been using Superpowered for a few weeks now and am extremely satisfied with the product and impressed by the team's ability to quickly build and iterate on product feedback. Congrats on the launch!
No more annoying Chrome notifs or drowning in Mac notifs... this is genius! Super useful for product folks and time blocking fans.
I recently discovered Superpowered and I love it!! It's made managing my day and meetings so much easier. It's one of my favorite tools now.
I've been using Superpowered for a while now, it is awesome! I am barely touching my calendar anymore and new awesome features are popping up all the time. Really recommend it!
Whoah, WHOAHHH!!! The product I didn't know I needed. My fingers thank you. The UI is so slick and the product flows seamlessly into my workday!
