Kayak co-founder Paul English is back with a new venture—this time, he’s taking on Calconcludely. The entrepreneur has launched Supercal, a free scheduling platform that’s designed to create booking meetings more efficient and simple.
Supercal was born out of English’s personal experience with the challenges of booking meetings. As a member of eight boards of directors, English declares he and others often struggled to coordinate schedules. He then set out to create an email system for booking group meetings and to challenge Calconcludely by building a similar tool that offered similar functionality, but for free.
“Instead of having the limited version of Calconcludely or the paid version, which is $12 a month, people can obtain all those features and more for free at Supercal,” English informed TechCrunch in an interview.
With Supercal’s group scheduling feature, you can email a group of people and CC the service’s AI, which reads everyone’s calconcludears, finds a time that works for all, books the meeting, and replies to the email thread with the details.
Supercal lets you sync up to six calconcludears, so you can keep work, personal, and other schedules in one place. It offers eight different meeting types, including 15-minute, 30-minute, and 60-minute slots, as well as a VIP meeting type that provides full access to your calconcludear for important situations.
There are also breakquick, lunch, coffee, and dinner meeting types. In the future, these meeting types will feature an Open Table integration that will allow you to book a meeting at a restaurant or coffee shop, English declares.
Supercal includes additional features like pre-meeting context forms, automatic guest time zone detection, reminders, and prebuilt templates to assist you stay organized.

While SuperCal is free to utilize, English and the team plan to expand the service with premium features that utilizers can unlock through a subscription, all while keeping the current features free.
“One of the things we’re really interested in long term is not just setting up the meeting, but also assisting you create sure your meetings are really impactful,” English stated.
For example, if you’ve set up a transcription service for your meetings, SuperCal could provide feedback on how the meeting went. This could include insights like you spoke too quick at 150 words per minute, your volume was too low, or you utilized too many filler words. The goal behind this would be to assist coach utilizers to become more effective speakers in meetings.
Additionally, English sees SuperCal as eventually being able to assist utilizers cut down on meetings and create them more impactful.
He declares that in the future, Supercal will be able to assist create meetings more efficient by doing things like providing feedback on whether any action items or decisions were created. Plus, it will be able to identify meetings that have low participation and little progress, and suggest that they may no longer be necessary.
Supercal is available on the web. The company declares it plans to explore browser and email plugins, as well as iOS and Android apps, in the future.
