Created a beautiful Calendly alternative; would love some feedback
Hey everyone,
WeTransfer made the mundane task of sending files more exciting with beautiful backgrounds.
TypeForm made the mundane task of filling out forms more exciting with great design.
TimeTuna.com aims to make the mundane task of scheduling meetings more exciting.
I co-founded TimeTuna because I believe there should be a nicer way to connect with others. Not based on transactions but based on values and aesthetics.
We focus on helping people share their brand and how they present themselves to new connections. This helps connect with people even before you talk to them. Building trust and helping to get the conversation started.
I'd love to get your feedback on this. Let me know why you would/would not use this!

This looks great. The design really stands out compared to other scheduling tools. I’m curious though, do the visuals or animations affect performance at all, especially on slower connections or mobile?
Hey @DakotaBuilds, I am glad you resonate!
The page loads fast, and the video loads later. So technically even if there are issues with video load - the page is is functional. If there are issues loading the video there is a fallback to the image background which the booking page host chose. While we have diverse feedback coming from our users, the load issue was not yet one.
Love the idea! Scheduling tools usually look so boring a beautiful UX can make a big difference. Did you design it mainly for freelancers or wider use?
Thanks @krick,
To be honest I was inspired to develop a tool for myself. I love scheduling tools, and I wanted to design one which I feel excited sharing with others. While today it is mostly addressing the needs of B2C customers (think startup founders, designers, photographers, film producers, etc), we make it more B2B ready over time (think sales funnels, recruitment, real estate etc).
I have always been a fan of what Yannick builds. This one also hits the mark. The UI and first look looks slick! The custom backgrounds and form layout standout the most for me. Loved the new POV in the scheduling domain. Thanks for sharing! All the best!!
Yannick is great :) It is a pleasure working with him!
I have a mini consulting biz with witty vibes on social media. But i use boring app for booking. This is a great alternative.. I'll make it fit my brand voice. Gonna try it asap . Thanks for sharing!!
Glad you like it, Arunima! :)
How would you promote this? What are good communities to talk about this product?
In comparison to the most common alternatives, such as Calendly and Cal, TimeTuna looks very fresh. I guess 10 years ago such tool could not be possible as high bandwidth internet was not widespread to quickly load those beautiful video backgrounds.
