24 alternatives to Carrie, for what Calendly can't do
Hey everyone, Through my career, I've spent too many hours and too much mental load on busywork like scheduling and following up on people's availabilities. So, I built Carrie. You simply cc her into your emails, and she sorts out meeting times across time zones, finds what works best for everyone, confirms the meeting and sends the invite. She handles scenarios beyond what Calendly can handle and it’s been freeing me up from the back-and-forth of juggling different meeting requests. I’ve been testing this with a beta group of users and am now looking to expand the user pool (please feel…

LIAMfree tier▲111Hi HN, yesterday I missed a meeting and spent most of the day sending ~35 emails. That kind of inbox + calendar admin has been draining my time for a long while, so I built LIAM to fix it. It helps with: - Drafting replies in your tone (honestly a bit scary how close it gets) - Scheduling meetings and handling the back and forth - Prioritising important threads and organising the inbox Important: LIAM doesn’t send anything without approval. I’d love feedback on what you’d actually trust an email agent to do, and which email workflows you’d automate first. You are more than welcome to roast…

XBeast▲228A few weeks ago I realized i was spending way too much time trying to write quality posts for Twitter. So I decided to look into scheduling tools which could help me automate my writing. I tried a few, but none of them satisfied me. Either the interface was way too complicated or the features i wanted were just not there. Finally, after some time I gave up… and instead I decided to just do it! I hacked up a quick prototype in a weekend. Tried it out - it worked!! Mostly.. I fixed some bugs, made a nice UI, and now (3 weeks later) I think I built one of the nicest scheduling tools out there.

Wellcome▲95Hi everyone, I got tired of the daily "Where is everyone working from?" / "Who's coming in today" messages in various slack channels. So I built *FindMyTeam*: it's a Slack app that pings your team once a day with three buttons – Home, Office, Traveling – and then shows a quick who's‑where summary (plus a monthly heat‑map in the App Home to see patterns). How it works: * Once a day the app posts a reminder to check-in * Either hit one of the three buttons, or use natural language (AI, yo! ;) * The app maintains a summary each day in the channel * Reminder times can be customized per…

I spend way too much time reading emails and scheduling. I just want something that handles it for me.. without needing a whole new app. So, I’m building this thing that lives in WhatsApp. It helps with emails, scheduling, todo lists etc.. right from my whatsapp. Honestly, I feel like batman with alfred at my sevice lol. Still veryyy early, but I wanted to check if others would be intrested. Would love to hear what you think. <3

not sure if anyone else feels this, but calendly links startes breaking my days. I absolute hate sitting and dealing various dates suggestions, and calendly solved that. But now I get 7 different meetings per day, and constant context switching. Important meetings land between semi important. Team meetings get scattered. My calendar stopped reflecting what actually mattered. So we built something simple: It’s still a meeting link, but the guest shortly explains what the meeting is about, and an AI suggests the best time based on my priorities, focus, and team context. If both people use it,…

I'm documenting everything about my process. From learning to code, to building the app, and all the way to my outreach efforts. I'm learning as I go and sharing it with everyone who's not a programer, and is daunted to build a software on their own. Trust me. If I can do it, anyone can! You can find my updates on: https://Claritask.com ...as well as video updates on https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdmqmifW4kIcPclXigay1dQ Would love to hear your feedback on my progress and if you have any suggestions on what I can do better.

During my fundraise, I had 6 Calendly links I was managing actively. My goals were: 1. Investors should always find links comfortable to their timezone 2. They should not see full day slots thinking I am free throughout the day ( wrong sign ) 3. So I had to manage multiple calendly for every timezone and opening slots - when one close. I really wished someone would have given me power to add all these things just as agent instructions for AI to decide - and we did it now. buxo.ai for everyone.

Briefing AI▲14Hey HN, I pitched an investor for 30 minutes before realizing they'd already passed on a similar company in their portfolio. That moment broke me. I'd wasted both our time because I didn't do basic research. So I built Briefing AI: Paste any calendar invite and Get an Intelligence-style dossier on attendees in 30 seconds. THE WORKFLOW: You have a meeting in 10 minutes. You know nothing about the attendees. Before: • Open LinkedIn, search "Sarah Chen Sequoia" • Skim profile, open 5 tabs • Google her recent activity • Try to remember talking points • Show up flustered • Total time: 15-20…

Hi everyone! I built this because I wanted a little bit more organization around my Claude sessions, worktrees and plans while staying in the terminal and not relying on another SaaS tool. Since it's a command line tool, the added bonus is that Claude can use `td` directly. The td calendar was just a fun add-on but the Claude session stats have been pretty interesting! Let me know what you think!

Hey friends! I’d like to introduce my latest product, Flashpost, a post scheduling tool for Reddit. The free tier includes 5 free posts per month so you can give the product a try. It is my first paid product as I try to make it as a solo indie dev! The goal is to offer a simple tool for creators to promote their projects on Reddit without breaking the bank for a single distribution channel. Now for the behind the scenes details. ## The Backstory When I launched my first project TechStackLeads on Reddit, the response was remarkable. My post received 700k impressions, resulting in 20k…
