Hello Product Hunt! 👋

This is Bridgette, one of the founders of Arrange.

We’re super excited to share a new product with you today: easy shareable calendars.

We built this out of our own frustration with how hard it is to share a set of calendar events. Sending a single calendar invite is easy, but sharing an entire set of events is a hassle. So people resort to sharing important dates and times in plain text format – via email, docs and PDFs – which are a huge pain for their recipients to add to their calendars.

Some fun facts about calendar usage 👀

🗓️ 70% of adults rely on a digital calendar 📱 #2 most used app on all devices after email ❗ People check their calendars up to 10x/day 💡 People are 86% more likely to take action if there’s an event in their calendars

We knew there had to be a better way to send someone a set of calendar events at once, so we built a simple alternative that makes creating, sharing, and managing a calendar easy for everyone 😊

Here’s how Arrange works:

📄 Import or paste a schedule in any format (PDF, image, screenshot, plain text) ✨ Convert it to a set of calendar events in seconds using AI 🎨 Customize your schedule page with a title, details and photo 🔗 Share via link with anyone, who can add it to their calendars with 1 tap or click 😅 Edit details any time to instantly update subscribers’ calendars

So far, people have used Arrange to add tens of thousands of events to their calendars for stuff like:

- The agenda and panel speaker details for a VC/founder conference - Meeting dates for a cohort-based coaching group for singles - Upcoming entrepreneurial events on a university campus - PTA meetings and events for an elementary school - Holidays and staff closure dates for a daycare center - Class sessions and office hours for courses on mindfulness, data science, and finance - The conference schedule for a women's tech summit - The recruitment schedule for Panhellenic rush - Game times for an intramural ice hockey league - ...and even wedding weekend details

In all of this, our focus has been singular: to make the user experience seamless for calendar sharers and subscribers alike.

For calendar subscribers, we’ve focused on ease of use and simplicity:

📲 One-click to add to calendar ➕ Filters to add or hide desired events 🤳 No separate app to download 📅 Works with existing calendar apps (Google, Microsoft, Apple) 🔔 Calendars auto-update if the schedule changes

We’ve also built helpful tools for calendar sharers, like a subscriber dashboard to track who’s added your schedule, and the ability to embed your Arrange schedule on your own website.

It would mean the world to us for you to check out Arrange if any of this resonates with you! Anyone can use Arrange for free and our Basics plan is free forever :) Even if you don’t have a schedule to share with others, you can use our AI upload to add the events from any plain text schedule to your calendar in about 30 seconds ⚡

If you have any questions or feedback, we’ll be here all day to answer them! Thanks again for the support.

I've been fortunate to see the evolution of Arrange from its inception, and I couldn't be more excited to see this hitting Product Hunt today! Curious who you find have been your biggest users?

I run Narrator.ai a data company helping business make better decisions. How can I use Arrange to optimize my workload? I am thinking: Eng Calendars, or maybe smaller events like Epic calendars so we can have our meetings really clearly laid out. Also how does it scale for lots of users?

Very helpful for creating events for teams and groups that overlap! Much faster than inputting manually in google calendar!

I attended a wedding with all of the weekend's events easily added to my calendar via one click of an Arrange link and it seriously blew everyone's minds how practical and valuable this is. Calendar events to keep us on schedule are valuable enough - but to have the events populated with the relevant info and details - huge. As someone who lives and dies by my calendar but who also has to wrangle a lot of other people too across work and life, the possibilities here are endless.

I use Google Calendar and tidycal for pretty much everything. Does this incorporate with those?

I love arrange, such a game changer for keeping me, my family, and my friends organized. I used this to plan for my wedding weekend and it was the most useful tool to disseminate info and make sure everyone had all the location, timing, and even dress code details. Highly recommend.

Such a great way for us to keep all of our students and community members up to date on everything going on at Yale! So easy to upload and share events; and, for students to be able to integrate these into their existing calendars. Love it!

Congrats on the launch! So cool to see the evolution of Arrange and how all the learnings have come together in this new product.

Incredible way to keep yourself organized - I use my calendar as my todo list, event planning, and social-check in graph. Impossible to imagine being a parent and an executive without great calendar tools. Thanks for making this.

Nice to see some real progress in the calendar space! A part of me does ever time I manually retype follow ups as future events.

Woooo! Congrats @bfmuir and Arrange team. This is game-changing!

I run a group coaching experience, and I used Arrange to get all invites on calendars for clients. My process went from individual invites (many many clicks and redundant actions) to adjusting everything in one place. It felt almost like my own calendar dashboard for my clients. Absolutely loved it!!!

Congrats on the launch! The product looks great and I look forward to using it!

Love the product! Congrats on the launch!!

This is so exciting! Congratulations @bfmuir and team!

Have loved following this product since early beta - check it out and congrats to @bfmuir and the Arrange team!!

One more question: I have a personal calendar and a work calendar. I HATE it when I book a personal event on my personal calendar and then it is not blocked on my work calendar so someone books a meeting. Do you think if I have a fun calendar with me and my fiance, we can add events that we want to go to on there and have it sync to our personal and work calendars, making it a lot easier to manage?

Arrange is a fantastic product that helps me stay on track with all my deadlines and various life priorities! I use it for my Masters degree to keep track of deliverables. When I got a list of assignments and deadlines in a pdf syllabus, I knew it would be hard to keep track of deliverables unless they were in my Google calendar. Instead of simply creating calendar events in my calendar only for myself, I made an Arrange schedule so not only me but my classmates could benefit. I wish Universities embraced this new technology as a way of sharing schedules. It would make the school experience so much more streamlined, allowing students to have schedules in their preferred calendar, whether Outlook or Google. I also see how Arrange could be helpful for many other applications. For example, I wish my small town city hall allowed town citizens to subscribe to all the great events and community gatherings. It is tough to keep track of all the happenings. I want them to be delivered automatically to my Google calendar!
