Consistent, on brand communication

Customize templates once and deliver the same polished experience at every touchpoint. Share pre service prep, aftercare, and upsell add ons that grow lifetime value without extra manual work.

Features built for beauty salon operations

Everything you need to run a reliable, scalable scheduling engine for spa and salon teams.

Multi channel reminders and follow ups

Configure email, SMS, and WhatsApp sequences for confirmations, reminders, and aftercare tips. Reduce no shows and drive rebooking with automated outreach.

Dynamic intake and routing logic

Build rules from intake answers to route guests by service, gender preference, therapist skill, or room type. Ensure the right match every time.

Resource and room aware scheduling

Protect rooms, beds, and equipment with conflict free holds. Avoid double bookings across shared resources for services like couples massage or facials.

Bundles, add ons, and buffers

Offer add ons like aromatherapy or gel removal. Apply smart buffers for cleanup and prep by service type to keep the day flowing.

Team, location, and marketplace support

Support multiple locations, rotating teams, and contractors. Let clients pick a provider or auto assign to the soonest available expert.

API first and self host options

Integrate booking events into your POS and CRM, or self host for full control. Cal.com is open source and built for developers.

  • Thrilled with this scheduling app—it's a game-changer. The intuitive interface and advanced features streamline my time management. The standout, however, is the incredible support team—swift, expert responses to every query. A perfect combo for seamless scheduling and top-notch customer service. P.s. Way better than Calendly

  • I just migrated from calendly to cal.com I'm liking it so far. I wasn't particularly displeased with calendly. It's fine. But I like that cal is OSS and my sub to calendly was coming up for renewal so I thought I'd check it out. Looks good.

  • 2 days of using @calcom is enough to never look back at calendly
    Anuvesh Singh@singh_anuvesh na X
  • Without a doubt the best calendar/scheduling application I have ever used. It has all of the advanced features I need while also being insanely intuitive and straightforward for both end-users and booking recipients. Love it!!

  • (finally) made the move to @calcom after I couldn't find how to edit events in the calendly dashboard and I must say - dash is 10/10 Bravo @peer_rich and team (I should have moved over years ago!) OSS fam

  • This platform's open-source nature and flexible licensing are a developer's dream. Self-hosting and white-labeling empower personalization and seamless integration.
    Ahmed Elnaggarna Product Hunt
  • for the love of me, why do people still use Calendly? Just today I have seen products reference Calendly while they know of @calcom It's a no brainer for me to use , their brand is amazing, cool team + they even have more compelling features 🤷
    Rotimi Best@rotimi_best na X
  • Amazing. I've been sharing it with everyone I know. It's helped me create more events spontaneously, because of how smooth it is compared to Calendly and Harmonizely.
    Benna Product Hunt
  • Very easy to set up and start. Connected with my Google calendar without any problem. Connecting with Microsoft gives me an error. But other than that the user interface is very good.
    Pankaj Dixitna Product Hunt
  • Just gave it a go and it's definitely the easiest meeting I've ever scheduled! No context switching, no distractions, and works even better on mobile too.
