About SavvyCal
SavvyCal keeps polishing scheduling ergonomics on a slow, steady cadence.
SavvyCal is a scheduling tool competing on booking-experience quality. Its changelog moves at a measured pace — roughly one release a month — and the recent run is a series of contained refinements: duplicating workflows, locking links against last-minute changes, per-event buffer control, multi-language booking pages, and improvements to booking on behalf of others.
