The problem it solves

Your community events live in one place and your calendar lives in another, so keeping both updated means entering everything twice. It's easy for the two to drift out of sync, leaving people looking at outdated event times.

Who it fits

Community managers who run scheduled events and want them reflected in Google Calendar.

How it works

  1. The system checks your community platform on a schedule for scheduled events
  2. New or recently updated events are identified
  3. Matching events already in Google Calendar are found using their shared ID
  4. New events are created and updated events are refreshed in Google Calendar
What you get

Community events mirrored on your calendar automatically

Your scheduled community events show up on Google Calendar automatically, keeping everyone's calendar in sync without manual entry.

What you get

A Google Calendar that stays in sync with your community's scheduled events.

What you need

An account on your community platform and a Google account for Calendar.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
