Available for Gmail

👋🏻 Hey, Product Hunt! I'm thrilled to share a little experiment I built with @chris_gradwohl and @jipvandervelde 🚀 Available is a Chrome Extension that allows you to easily share your calendar availability inside of your Gmail compose/reply view. The best part––it pastes the times as plain text. I've been a user of various calendar scheduling tools in the past, but always felt awkward sending a branded widget or URL to my recipient asking them to book time on *my* calendar. Especially if I was the one asking for their time. I've been using this extension for a few weeks and it has saved me quite a bit of time by not having to switch between Gmail and my calendar tabs every time I'm coordinating a meeting request! Excited to share this with y'all. If you have any questions/run into bugs, feel free to DM me on Twitter (@_shahedk) or email me shahedkhan30@gmail.com :-)

So, I've used the tool now. love this but it does half of the job. Following things could be improved: - adding time availability for folks in the recipients timezone - adding a way to automatically show the "availability of the both users"

This product is a huge time saver as a Technical Recruiter who schedules a lot of interviews. With tools like Calendly, it's almost impossible to control when someone chooses to book a slot, and it's common to end up with too many back-to-back calls. Available allows me to have control over my calendar again and removes the need to toggle back and forth between the email and the calendar to provide available times.

A super handy tool for people having lots of meetings and not using tools like Calendly. I just tried it and it works perfectly! @chris_gradwohl @jipvandervelde @_shahedk really small improvement for Available: It would be great to be able to display the calendar from Monday to Sunday and not Sunday to Saturday Congrats on launching!

Awesome product. I have used many calendar scheduling tools being in sales and none of them are as easy and efficient as this product! Saves so much time when trying to schedule demos or any meeting. I love it!

Wow, so easy to use. This is fast & efficient!

As a podcast host and a human with very little time. This product has been very valuable. Better solution then meetings link.
