SaaStr explores how a three-person team built their own scheduling tool, Calendly alternative, using AI, and the reasons behind this decision despite the availability of a proven, cheaper alternative. The article highlights the unique data and integrations that made the custom solution necessary.
What SaaStr reported
- The team built a custom booking tool in 20 minutes using Replit, despite Calendly being a cheaper, proven option.
- The AI VP of Marketing (10K) suggested building the tool after 10K offered to build it himself when presented with the idea by Amelia.
- The custom booking tool provides a custom, real-time prospectus for each sponsor prospect and automatically routes meetings to the appropriate team member based on existing partnerships.
