Hey everyone!
I'm building Skedvio, a scheduling tool for freelancers, coaches, and consultants who feel like Calendly's gotten too expensive and too cluttered over the years.
The core idea: a clean 3-step booking flow (pick duration date time) instead of a buried calendar embed, priced for solo users instead of enterprise teams.
We're launching here on Product Hunt on July 22nd, but I wanted to open this thread now to hear directly from people before then:
What's the one thing that would make you switch from Calendly or Acuity?
Any must-have features for you (payments, SMS reminders, team scheduling, integrations)?
If you want early access before launch day, just drop a comment, happy to get you in now.
Love that you can get a booking page live in under a minute, the three-step flow is genuinely faster than dragging a Calendly embed around. Curious to see how the roadmap evolves once more solo users start weighing in.
@aysunzhanyeue Thanks, Aysun! That's exactly the goal, get from zero to a live booking page fast. As more solo users weigh in, the roadmap's genuinely shaped by what actually breaks for them day to day rather than guessing upfront. One thing I can share now: it's now fully responsive across screens too, which was a recent fix based on early usage.
honestly looks super clean and the price point is honestly refreshing. one thing that would honestly make it stick for me though is native Stripe or Square payments right at the booking step, basically so clients can pay a deposit or full fee before the slot actually confirms. saves a ton of back and forth chasing invoices for coaches like me.
@veli359929 Really appreciate this, and you're right, native payments at the booking step is coming. Wanted to nail the booking experience first before adding a processor, but it's on the roadmap and should make it much simpler than chasing invoices manually. In the meantime, since you're trying it during beta, you'll get locked-in discounted pricing for the first year once plans go live, as a thank-you for being early.
Love that the booking flow is just three steps without burying the calendar behind a full page embed. That kind of restraint is rare in scheduling tools, and it's exactly what most freelancers actually need.
@kellyparketl6a Thank you, that restraint is intentional and honestly the one thing I don't want to compromise no matter what gets added later, payments, integrations, team features, whatever comes next. Simplicity is the actual differentiator, not a phase.
