Harness the Power of Skiff in Your Cal.com Journey

Skiff Mail is a privacy-centric, end-to-end encrypted email and collaboration tool that's designed on an open-source platform. Similarly, Cal.com is an open-source platform specializing in effective scheduling and appointment coordination with impressive features for automation, calendar integrations, and team collaborations.

Every day, Skiff users have requested the ability to schedule and manage appointments on Skiff Calendar, and Cal.com is an ideal match for this need. This synergy aligns seamlessly with our mission of making open-source accessible to absolutely everyone.

This integration promises users of both platforms a more dynamic, private, and open-source workspace that simplifies networking and collaboration!

So how does it function?

First off, existing Skiff users can simply register for a Cal.com account.

Conversely, current Cal.com users can seamlessly transition to Skiff Mail and Calendar. After creating a new Skiff Mail account, all you need to do is update your Cal.com email address to your new Skiff account alias.

For users registering with a Skiff email, the option to "skip" will appear on the calendar connection page. At this time, Skiff Mail will manage all invites through its privacy-centric, end-to-end encrypted inbox.

All new meeting invitations will then route directly to your Skiff inbox and will automatically sync with your end-to-end encrypted Skiff Calendar.

What about video call integrations?

Cal.com is adept at adding video call integrations, including Skiff Calendar’s top pick for video calls - Jitsi. As a product that respects privacy and is built on open-source architecture, Jitsi naturally complements Skiff Calendar. This means you can communicate and collaborate privately in real time with ease. But if Jitsi isn’t your go-to option, we have over 20 different video conferencing alternatives in our app store to suit your needs.
