What it is.
When one booking link stops being enough, free scheduling still works here. Cal.com lets an individual schedule for free with no usage limits, and it's open source.
It's also open source, so a team with hosting can run it themselves. Most people never need that, and it does mean the roadmap and the data handling are inspectable.
What you get.
- Free scheduling for 1 user with no usage limits.
- As many event types as you need, since they are not metered.
- Calendar connections and time zone handling on the free tier.
- An open source codebase, with self-hosting available if a review asks for it.
How to set it up.
Connect your calendar and set availability before creating any event types.
Create one event type per meeting shape, since the free tier doesn't cap them.
Add buffers and a minimum notice period, so the calendar stays workable.
Use a separate link per campaign when you want to see where bookings come from.
Look at self-hosting only if data residency is a genuine requirement, since the hosted version is free anyway.
