I currently use Calendly and will try Google's new built-in offering[1].

What features would you add that set Carve apart?

I just read through that page, thanks for linking it! My vision for Carve is that I just want users to say "I want to schedule a meeting with A, B, and C people". And then Carve would handle the rest: finding availability, making sure the meeting time is during working hours, etc...

The additional features would let users set filters on:

* What times they wanted to schedule meetings

* Schedule meetings at least 24 hours in advance

* Set some people as optional

* etc..

There’s something along that line here but I don’t know if it’s the best execution of the idea

Schedule a meeting with cynthia@yourdomain.com

Find 45 minutes with Cynthia next week, title it "1:1”

These two flows are the ones I'm interested in building out. Something low friction where you don't have to spend time trying to find a common free slot on each other's calendar
