I recently discovered Superpowered and I love it!! It's made managing my day and meetings so much easier. It's one of my favorite tools now.

At $10 /mo, this is more expensive than Calendly, Slack, GSuite, Office 365, and a number of other productivity tools. It's hard to imagine a calendar reminder would cost more than my entire email and calendar itself - the paid versions with word processor, spreadsheets, storage, etc.
It's much prettier than MeetingBar, I'll give you that.
Been playing with Superpowered for the last few weeks and it's totally changed my Zoom workflow!
I've been a user of Fantastical for 8 years. They released a feature that's pretty much this a year ago or so.
Can you highlight the major differences? Maybe I'm missing something.
- I like the smart packaging of functionality - seems intuitive
- $10 a month strikes me as quite expensive for an add-on for Google Calendar.
Will test and decide...
@yingninggui Just downloaded. Super slick. $10 is a steep ask for non power users that will balk, even at a 7 day trial. I'd suggest making 1 account per month freemium, and charge the $10 per month for multi-account access. Making it a no-brainer I think will massively increase your downloads. Good luck!
Nice product. Can you please explain the logic behind the $10/m price for this product while, for example, Fantastical (best app of 2020) cost ~40 per year and has all the features + more?
@vladdesign Hey Vladimir, great question :)
I’m an ex-Fantastical user myself. At first it was great, but eventually I just stopped using it. I found myself going to Google Calendar all the time instead. I’ve seen tons of people online dissatisfied as well.
As for us, we started developing just ~4 weeks ago, so new features are coming every few days (literally). You’ll be one of our early users and get to give feedback on our direction as we grow.
Hope that helps :)
No more annoying Chrome notifs or drowning in Mac notifs... this is genius! Super useful for product folks and time blocking fans.
I'm currently using Meeting Bar (https://github.com/leits/MeetingBar) for this. The UX of Superpowered looks great; will definitely follow this product! 😇
@swapagarwal Excited for you to try it, Swapnil! Let us know how you find it :)
@swapagarwal Wonder what the benefits are over MeetingBar... Because at this point I don't see any. MeetingBar also supports Teams, and I can name one other huge benefit for MeetingBar: it's $120 a year cheaper.
@swapagarwal @joid MeetingBar does not integrate with google calendar but requires you to use the default mac calendar if i recall correctly
@swapagarwal @danielschlossfr Oh, that could be indeed. But if you add Google Calendar to Mac calendar.app? Should probably work, I guess.
@swapagarwal @joid yeah it will but not very well. Apple Calendar <> Google Calendar does not sync well if you don't use the apple calendar as interface.
