TidyCal
SchedulingBooking pages sold mainly as a one time lifetime purchase, built by AppSumo
The cheapest credible way to put a booking page online, and the depth matches the price: it schedules well and does very little else.
Best for
Solo operators, coaches and small agencies who want a working booking page for a one time payment rather than another monthly seat.
Not great for
Revenue teams that need routing forms, lead qualification, CRM assignment logic and workflow branching before a meeting is booked.

TidyCal, in plain terms
TidyCal is a booking page tool built and sold by AppSumo as one of its own products, and its pitch is price rather than depth. The free tier already covers unlimited bookings and booking types, paid bookings, recurring and package bookings and a public booking page. Above it sit two lifetime plans that are one time payments rather than subscriptions, $29 for Individual and $79 for Agency, alongside a conventional Pro subscription at $12 per month or $99 per year. Features cover the common cases: one to one, group, recurring and package bookings, payments through Stripe and PayPal including subscriptions with automatic renewals, calendar sync with Google, Microsoft and Apple, automatically created video meeting links, email reminders, custom emails and analytics, an AI assistant, and SMS reminders for the United States and Canada on the Agency plan. Round robin and collective meetings, a dedicated team page and reduced branding arrive on Agency, while removing branding entirely and adding a custom domain are Pro features. Calendar connection caps run from 10 on Individual to 25 on Agency and Pro. Zapier support covers booking, contact and team triggers. It is deliberately simpler than the category leaders: routing forms, lead qualification and advanced workflow logic are not part of the product, and no mobile app is advertised. On AppSumo it holds 4.36 stars across 915 reviews.
