November 2026
One booking per email address
Limit a booking type, like a free first session, to one booking per email address. Send repeat bookers to another booking type instead, such as a paid session.
Booking types →October 2026
Links in booking questions
Add links to your booking questions and answer options, like a client agreement bookers tick to accept. They open in a new tab and show in your confirmation emails too.
Booking types →One Share button on every booking type
Copy link, single-use link, email and social sharing now live in one Share menu. After you create a booking type, TidyCal helps you share it right away.
Booking types →Reschedule a whole group slot
Move every booking in a group slot at once with "Reschedule all bookings".
API, MCP and webhooks are free on every plan
The TidyCal API, the MCP server for AI assistants and webhooks now work on every plan, including Free.
API docs →Apple and CalDAV calendars sync more reliably
Edits and deletions on Apple and other CalDAV calendars now sync correctly, and very large calendars sync in full.
Connect any CalDAV calendar or ICS feed
Connect Fastmail, Nextcloud, Zoho, mailbox.org or any CalDAV calendar. Or add a read-only ICS feed, like a school or team calendar, so TidyCal never books you over it.
Connect a calendar →A much bigger API
The API can now reschedule and archive bookings, add guests, manage booking types, questions, availability schedules, coupons and contacts, and list payments and subscriptions.
API docs →AI assistants can book and cancel for you
With your permission, Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants connected to TidyCal can create and cancel bookings, create booking types and add contacts.
MCP setup guide →Webhooks
Send booking, payment, contact, Store order and subscription events to your own server as they happen. Every request is signed so you can verify it came from TidyCal.
Set up webhooks →Calendar sync fixes
TidyCal now checks your connected calendars fresh the moment someone books, so busy times do not slip through.
Single-use booking links
Copy a link that works for exactly one booking, then stops. Free for everyone for a limited time, then part of Pro.
Booking types →Group bookings are free on every plan
Classes, workshops and office hours with multiple attendees now work on the Free plan too.
Booking types →Look busy
Hide some of your open times so your calendar looks in demand. Pick Kinda busy, Pretty busy or Slammed under More rules. You can still book any time yourself. Free for everyone for a limited time, then part of Pro.
Booking types →Booking emails show the right time and place
Booking emails show times in the booker's timezone and the location they actually picked.
A new phone booking page
Days across the top and times in a grid, with much less scrolling. In testing it got 6.7% more bookings from the same traffic.
A cleaner Availability page
Your hours, time off and extra hours sit on clear cards, with shortcuts to the changes you make most.
Open Availability →Open hours and busy time on your bookings calendar
The bookings calendar shows your open hours and busy time next to your bookings, so you can see your week at a glance.
Open your calendar →Faster booking pages
Booking pages load faster and recover on their own if part of the page fails to load.

Setting up a custom domain now walks you through each DNS record with values you can copy.
Import and invite contacts
Import contacts into TidyCal from the Contacts page and invite them to book you.
Waitlist on fully booked pages
When you are fully booked, people can join a waitlist instead of leaving. You get an email for each one, and they show up in Contacts.
Booking types →Step-by-step migration guides
New guides walk you through moving from Calendly, Cal.com, Acuity, Zoho Bookings and SavvyCal.
Every new account starts with a bookable page
New accounts get a starter booking type that is ready to share from day one.

Booking notifications open their booking

Custom confirmation and reminder emails written while creating a booking type are now saved with it.
See which account each payment went to

Round robin only picks hosts who are free for the whole booking
Round robin no longer assigns a booking to a teammate whose availability covers only part of it.
Lapsed custom domains send visitors to your TidyCal page
If a custom domain is no longer active, visitors are redirected to the same page on tidycal.com.
Open a booking from your bookings list
Click any booking in the list to see its details. The list also tells you when it is filtered to one contact.
Clearer "Add to calendar" titles
Calendar events your bookers add now name both you and your guest, so everyone knows who the meeting is with.

Group bookings stay in sync with your calendar
Cancelled group attendees stay cancelled after a calendar sync, and moving an attendee into an existing group slot removes their old calendar event.
Connect TidyCal to Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants
The TidyCal MCP server gives an AI assistant read-only access to your TidyCal account. The setup guide walks through each assistant.
MCP setup guide →Apply a new location to existing bookings
When you add a location to a booking type, TidyCal offers to add it to the bookings already on your calendar.
Long SMS reminders send once

A livelier directory
Directory pages now show booking activity, recently booked hosts and reviews, so visitors can see who is active.

Verification code in the subject line

Bring your whole Calendly account over
The Calendly importer now brings your upcoming and past bookings, contacts and guests, not just your event types.
Switch from Calendly →Date overrides can add availability
Open extra hours on a specific day, not just block time off.
Pick which Microsoft account to connect
Connecting Outlook or Microsoft 365 now asks which account to use instead of grabbing whoever is signed in.
Cap total bookings for a booking type
"Set maximum bookings" has a new "in total" option, so you can sell a limited number of spots and stop there.
The directory is free on every plan
Any host, including on the Free plan, can list their page in the public TidyCal directory and get found by profession.
Browse the directory →August 2026
