What is SavvyCal?

SavvyCal lets Claude or ChatGPT book and move meetings through an MCP server on every plan.

SavvyCal ships about once a month, and its latest release is the largest in a year: an MCP server on every plan that lets AI assistants find times, book or move meetings, block time and run polls. Earlier releases were contained refinements such as duplicating workflows, locking links before an event, per-event buffers and multi-language booking pages.

What is SpinupWP?

SpinupWP's API now covers almost every site setting, so WordPress hosting can be scripted.

SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and into the dashboard and API. A September 28 release completed the site-settings API, covering backups, page cache and the rest of the settings screens. The October 20 dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters for teams managing many servers.

SavvyCal lets Claude or ChatGPT book and move meetings through an MCP server on every plan.

◆ Current state

SavvyCal ships about once a month, and its latest release is the largest in a year: an MCP server on every plan that lets AI assistants find times, book or move meetings, block time and run polls. Earlier releases were contained refinements such as duplicating workflows, locking links before an event, per-event buffers and multi-language booking pages.

◆ Where it's heading

For most of the year SavvyCal has added control for hosts and assistants who schedule for others. The MCP server extends that to software assistants: the same booking and rescheduling actions now work from a chat. That puts SavvyCal's scheduling logic inside other tools instead of only on its booking pages.

◆ Prediction

Expect follow-ups that widen what the MCP server can do, such as more scheduling actions. The single release gives little else to predict from.

2.5

SpinupWP's API now covers almost every site setting, so WordPress hosting can be scripted.

◆ Current state

SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and into the dashboard and API. A September 28 release completed the site-settings API, covering backups, page cache and the rest of the settings screens. The October 20 dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters for teams managing many servers.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is heading toward fleet-scale management: bulk operations in the UI and full automation through the API. Each release removes another reason to log into a server by hand.

◆ Prediction

Expect more bulk operations on the rebuilt dashboard and server-level API endpoints to match the site ones; timing is unclear given the roughly monthly cadence.
