TidyCal Alternative
More features and flexibility than the AppSumo deal offers.
TidyCal gained popularity through AppSumo's lifetime deal, offering simple scheduling at a one-time price. While that's appealing, TidyCal's feature set is intentionally limited to keep things simple. As your business grows, you may outgrow TidyCal's capabilities. SchedulingKit scales with you, offering advanced features like team scheduling, API access, and open-source options that TidyCal doesn't provide.

Team scheduling, round-robin assignments, advanced API access, open-source self-hosting, and more sophisticated automation workflows.
Can I start free and upgrade later?
