Group scheduling that closes the loop
Every other group scheduling tool stops at the vote count. Schedly reads your live calendar, collects votes from anyone without logins, ranks the best slot with AI, and books the meeting automatically.
Sound familiar?
If any of these hit home, you're in the right place.
The email chain that never ends
"Does Tuesday at 2 work?" "I can do Wednesday." "I'm out Wednesday." "How about Thursday morning?" "What time Thursday?" This exchange — multiplied across every group scheduling situation in your week — costs distributed teams an estimated 4.8 hours per week.
Poll tools that stop at the vote count
You share a Doodle or When2meet link. People vote. You get results. Then you still have to pick a winner, open your calendar, create the event, and manually invite everyone. The poll solved half the problem and handed the other half back to you.
"What time is that for me?"
The winning slot is 3pm EST. Someone on your team is in London (8pm), someone is in Singapore (4am the next day). The vote-counting tool picked the most popular option, not the fairest one. Now you have a recurring meeting that someone quietly hates.
Every friction point, eliminated
One tool that handles the whole scheduling loop — from poll to booked calendar invite.
One poll link — no friction for your group
Share one Schedly poll link by email, Slack, WhatsApp, or anywhere else. Every participant opens it in their browser, sees the proposed times in their own local timezone (auto-detected), and votes in under 30 seconds. No Schedly account needed, no app to download, no login required.
AI that finds the genuinely best time, not just the most popular
Schedly's AI analyzes every proposed slot on three dimensions: timezone spread (minimising unsociable hours across all participants' timezones), response rate (slots with more respondents carry stronger signal), and host energy patterns (when do your meetings historically go best?). You get a ranked recommendation with scoring — not just a count of green checkmarks.
Auto-booking that closes the loop completely
When a winning slot is confirmed — at your deadline, at majority vote, or with one click — Schedly books it. Calendar invitations go to every participant with the event time in their local timezone. Reminders fire automatically. The poll closes. Nothing left to do.
From poll to booked meeting in four steps
The entire loop — poll creation to confirmed calendar invite — automated.
Pick your slots from your live calendar
Open Meeting Polls in Schedly. Your Google or Outlook calendar loads automatically showing your real availability. Click the times you want to offer — only free slots are shown. Add required co-hosts and their availability is checked too.
Share one link — no accounts for participants
Copy your poll link and share it anywhere. Every participant opens it in their browser, sees times in their timezone, and votes in one click. No signup, no app, no friction.
AI ranks while votes come in
Your poll dashboard shows live response rates and Schedly's AI continuously ranks the candidate slots. By the time everyone has voted, you have a recommendation — with timezone spread scores, response weighting, and your energy pattern factored in.
Winning slot books automatically
Confirm the winner (or let it auto-confirm at your deadline). Schedly creates the booking, sends calendar invites to every participant in their local timezone, fires any configured reminders, and closes the poll. Done.
