SynCal Dashboard
Build calendar features, not calendar integrations.
Syncal is a developer-first calendar infrastructure platform that lets you integrate Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Apple Calendar, and CalDAV through a single API. Instead of spending weeks building OAuth flows, webhook processing, recurring event handling, incremental synchronization, and provider-specific logic, developers can focus on building scheduling experiences while Syncal handles the infrastructure.
Hey everyone! I'm excited to finally share Syncal with you.
Syncal was born out of a frustration I kept running into while building products that needed calendar integrations. Every project meant dealing with different provider APIs, OAuth flows, webhooks, recurring events, sync edge cases, rate limits, and keeping calendars in sync reliably. Instead of building scheduling features, I was spending weeks rebuilding the same infrastructure.
I started asking a simple question: Why isn't there a Stripe-like infrastructure for calendars?
That question became Syncal. The goal is simple: give developers one API to sync, query, and manage calendars across Google, Outlook, Apple, and CalDAV without worrying about the complexity underneath.
Building Syncal taught me that calendar synchronization is far more complex than it appears. Handling recurring events, incremental sync, webhook reliability, conflict resolution, and provider-specific quirks required rethinking the architecture multiple times. Every challenge pushed the platform to become more reliable and developer-friendly.
This launch is just the beginning. I'd genuinely love to hear your feedback, feature requests, and even criticisms—they'll directly shape where Syncal goes next.
Thank you for checking us out and supporting the journey!
Finally something that handles the OAuth mess across providers without me writing the same code four times. The webhook piece impressed me most, it just kept my local test in sync without any glue code.
Curious how pricing works once you scale past the free tier. Is it per active user, per calendar connected, or purely by API call volume?
This solves a real pain point. In one of our projects, we had to sync events between our application and users' Google Calendar and Outlook calendars, and it turned out to be much harder than we expected.
Keeping everything in sync reliably, handling recurring events, staying within provider rate limits, dealing with webhook edge cases, and making sure no updates were missed consumed way more engineering time than the actual product features.
A unified API like this would have saved us weeks of work. Wishing you the best with the launch! 🚀
Exactly what I was looking for.
Handling all the calendar syncs on my project was such a headache, managing the abuse limit, throttle limits etc, maintaining consistency between the two systems and ensuring a fault tolerant workflow. syncal has solved all of these issues for me, so glad to have found it
