Congrats on the PH launch Jeremy! Mayday looks great!

Congratulations on the public launch. 🎉 It has replaced Calendly in my individual meeting request/scheduling workflow, and it really is the closest thing to Sunrise. The new Calendar Protect feature is surprising and incredibly useful at protecting me from myself (or my lack of action). Love this team and this product. 😍

Congrats on the launch. Haven't seen a good calendar product since Sunrise. There's a handful of calendars and calendar management tools (calendly, virtual assistants, etc). I hope Mayday can be a platform that pulls all that together eventually.

I've been looking for a new calendar ever since sunrise! Can't wait to use Mayday!!

👋 Hello Product Hunt! Mayday is a new kind of calendar that we've created to help people spend time in better ways. The single most important tool we use to manage our time is the calendar (which might explain why there seems to be a new calendar or scheduling app announced on Product Hunt every week 🤷 ). However, we don't believe that building just a prettier or faster version of the same old calendar will help address the challenges we're facing with our schedules. For many of us, our calendars feel broken because we're in too many meetings or too many back-to-back Zoom calls. Or fragmented days that make it challenging to get deep work done. Or wasted time going back and forth trying to schedule a simple meeting. What's more, from personal events to undocumented to-dos, our calendars are not a comprehensive record of how we will be spending our time. We're building empathetic productivity software, and I'm excited to share a bit more about what Mayday can do: ▪️ True Availability: Empty space ≠ free space. Smarter scheduling requires a deeper understanding of the events in your calendar and how you want to spend your time. ▪️ Adaptive Scheduling: We need to rethink how meetings are scheduled to facilitate more efficient and dynamic collaboration between people. With Adaptive Scheduling, meetings can be created using parameters (e.g., "this week" or "in the afternoon") instead of just being booking at specific times. ▪️ Calendar Shield: Your calendar should automatically protect your schedule, so you always have time to get things done before your day gets filled with meetings. ▪️ Unified Timeline: All of your calendar accounts should co-exist peacefully in a single timeline, without duplicate events or excess noise. Mayday currently supports Google Calendar, with Outlook and iCloud support in the works and coming soon. ▪️ Smart Notifications: Maintaining an effective schedule requires more than basic reminder notifications 10 minutes before your next meeting. Instead, your calendar should alert you of potential issues before they blow up your day. ▪️ Native Apps: Accessing your calendar from all devices is essential, and you shouldn't need to hunt for a browser tab to use it. We currently support macOS, iOS, and iPadOS. Windows and Android are coming soon. ▪️ Privacy-by-Design: Your data belongs to you. Mayday can help you take control of your schedule without needing to know every specific detail of what's in your calendar. While Mayday is currently in private beta, we're onboarding new users each week, and we won't have a waitlist forever. In the meantime, here's a post that shares more about our goals with Mayday and the way we're creating a new kind of calendar for the modern world: https://medium.com/maydaylabs/th... 😸 Thanks everyone - let us know what you think!

I've never found a great replacement for Sunrise but I think this is not only a replacement but an improvement. Can't wait to get my schedules back under control.

Been an alpha user and Mayday has helped me retake control of my schedule by warning me when I have conflicting meetings and protecting my day from being overbooked.

Congrats on the launch Jeremy and the entire Mayday team! It’s been really cool to see Mayday evolve into a entire series of tools to help you manage time.

I've been using Mayday, and it's a calendar that lets me waste less time managing my calendar. A lot of the features built-in are teaching me to better manage and defend my heads-down time during workdays. Great app 👏

Just signed up for access. I do fractional work for multiple startups which makes managing and syncing my calendars a complete pain. Does mayday have support to integrate and synchronize multiple different g-suite calendars?

Congrats @jeremybell and the team Mayday for building an app that helps me reclaim my time (my life really!) from the tyranny of meetings. With several different calendars to manage and keep in sync, Mayday has become one of the most essential apps on my phone and Mac. Calendar Shield is like having a real live superpower - try it and you'll be amazed at the life you can live when you create focus time for yourself. Mayday has replaced 4 apps on one shot - the understanding Jeremy and the team have about what's wrong with how we use calendars and scheduling plus their ability to design simple gorgeous UX/UI makes this a winner!

The reality for me is that calendars are both super important, and absolutely awful. I'm very pleased to see anyone with a genuine passion to improve this area of my life. I use Apple Cal to manage my time, appointments, priorities, availability for meetings, and so much more... and it really was never designed for any of it. Looking forward to see this go live.

Amazing! Well done @jeremybell and team. Save me from myself MAYDAY....SAVE ME!!!!

Looks really nice and I love the interface! Looking forward to your launch and all the best!

Would love to know if there's a way for us to see our position on the waitlist!

How bout, yes! It looks amazing. Have applied for access. I know there is world of problems to solve out there but I am desperate for someone to solve this one. I live in my calendar app for work, I use both Gmail and Apple's calendar and they both frustrate me so much. Excited about this one!

I've been using Mayday for a year, and I can't imagine going back to Google Calendar and Calendly. Quick Meet is a game changer. Type "Meet with Jeremy any afternoon next week" and Mayday creates a custom booking page, just for Jeremy. I've wanted Calendly to do this forever. Finally a calendar that treats people like humans.

Calendar apps are supposed to keep you organized and reduce burnout and work fatigue, but most calendar apps cause more anxiety. Not MayDay though, it's built help you keep calm and stay organized. I have been using it for quite sometime now, and don't think would switch to another app. The MacOS app is also coming out soon, and I cannot wait to start using that one too. Keep up the great work guys.

Congrats on the launch! Love using Mayday so far and being able to plan my week, see my daily capacity and protect my time! Also love seeing all my calendars in one place. Excited for all the new features to come.
