The problem it solves

Manually building calendar invites and attaching them to emails is fiddly and easy to get wrong. You want recipients to be able to add an event to their calendar without back-and-forth.

Who it fits

Anyone who needs to send meeting or event invites by email, like event organizers or client-facing teams.

How it works

  1. Starts when you provide the event details
  2. Builds a standard calendar event file from those details
  3. Attaches the event file to an email
  4. Sends the email to the recipient
What you get

Invites guests can add with a single click

You send a calendar invite that recipients can add to their own calendar with one click, straight from their inbox.

What you get

An email with a calendar event file attached, ready for the recipient to add to their calendar.

What you need

An email account capable of sending attachments.

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.
