Scheduling Automation Meetings
Overview
Calendly, founded in Atlanta in 2013, made the scheduling link a business norm: share availability, let counterparties self-book, and let automated workflows handle confirmations, reminders and follow-ups. Team features add round-robin, collective events and routing forms. For VCs juggling founder meetings, LP calls and diligence interviews across time zones, its ubiquity is the feature — nobody needs onboarding to book you.
