Been using Genee for a year now. Whenever I need to meet with someone I just CC genee@genee.me and it shows up on my calendar based on my time & location preferences (which Genee understands). Especially useful for group meetings.

@gr8well Thanks Eric! We have been battle testing the service in private beta with various different users demographics: Sales, Recruiters, Biz Dev, Real Estate Agents, startup CEOs, VCs, etc. One big thing we learn is that our users don't want to just make their lives easier, they want to make it easy for their invitees too. That's why we offer invitees the option to connect their calendars so that Genee can find time for everyone in one shot, instead of having invitees go back and forth on email with Genee.

I just archive emails for coffee meetings because it's to hard to schedule. Charles & Ben have been trying to make this process easier with Genee by just ccing their app and letting it suggest a time via natural language.

@sarajchipps Thanks so much! Which do you like better? Talk to Genee via CC on e-mail, text Genee or do it on the iPhone App?

I think cc on email will work best for me.
Do both individuals have to opt in to use Genee in order for the calendar scanning and time suggestion feature to work?

@larry_lawal It doesn't require your invitees to connect their calendars to Genee. But if they do, the process would be even simpler. That's one of the reason how we do group meetings better than anyone else.

When we set out to make this product, we want to make a scheduling assistant for everyone. That's why we make Genee to work with all calendar types (Exchange/Outlook, Google, iCloud/Apple). We also want Genee to be available wherever you are, you can CC Genee from e-mail, text Genee or use the Genee iPhone App.

I've been using Genee for over a year and I love the email interface. So easy to schedule meetings... just CC: genee.me and she/he will find a spot on your calendar based on the constraints you provide. It has saved me lots of hours over the last year plus. No more emails back and forth - this is so much more efficient. I've used the mobile interface as well and its great too, but my favorite usage is email.

@nimbletwit Thank so much Amos! We are looking forward to schedule many more of your meetings!

Some of you ask if we can check multiple calendars for availability. YES. WE CAN! I don't think anyone else is doing this because they only support Google calendar. Genee can check your Exchange work calendar and Google personal calendar before we present availabilities to your invitees.
