News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Would you use a Calendly alternative made just for indie hackers?

Hey hackers, I’m thinking about building a scheduling tool like Calendly, but specifically for indie hackers. Something lightweight, fast, and focused on our use cases — like syncing with your project time zones, showcasing what you’re working on, and making it easy to book quick coffee chats or collab calls.

Before I dive in, I’d love to hear from you:

How do you currently schedule meetings or collabs?

Do you face any annoyances with tools like Calendly or SavvyCal?

What specific features would make a scheduling tool feel tailor-made for indie hackers?

I am indie hacker and use embedded Calendly on my homepage for potential customer to book my tech support service.

Currently I cannot totally localize the user interface, and it keeps prompting cookie dialog which is annoying, but I can live with that.
