Ting is a free AI assistant that books meetings in email the way they really happen - human, messy. Just CC Ting - it reads the thread, checks calendars, suggests times, and sends the invite. Like Calendly, with an LLM. *Closed beta - PH users jump the queue*
This is pretty neat! Something we have all felt the pain of. Really cool. Congrats on the launch!
Interesting way to introduce a more human "touch" to the process. Emails can often get "lost", especially if someone receives lots of emails in one day. Are there ways that Ting can help follow up to ensure a meeting does get booked?
Ting feels like one of those “why didn’t this exist earlier?” tools — love how it leans into the real, messy nature of scheduling. Excited to see how it evolves. We’re building X-Design (an AI tool for product visuals), and it’s always inspiring to see thoughtful automation like this. Congrats on the launch and the closed beta!
looks solid . Do you offer an API or webhooks for customer workflows? Any SSO (Google/Microsoft), role-based permissions, and audit logs? How do you handle data retention and region residency (EU/US), and is there a public security page we can share with stakeholders?
I've been using Ting for the past week and I keep catching myself smiling at how easy it is to use.
The endless “When are you free?” exchanges simply vanished. I just CC Ting, it reads the thread, checks both calendars, and replies with a tidy set of options right inside the conversation (no links or extra tools required).
But it also makes reschedules/cancellations extremely easy because either person can just cc Ting and request it. I have never used another scheduler that makes schedule edits this painless.
One week in, it has already saved me hours, and I am certain it will do the same for anyone who gives it a shot.
Interesting, liked your branding! Wish you success with your coming launch.
If AI handles follow-ups or rescheduling, how do you avoid mistakes where it misunderstands intent or context and causes missed meetings or confusion?
You absolutely nailed the pain point. The endless back-and-forth and cold scheduling links are the worst. This sounds like the solution I've been waiting for. The only downside? Seeing that "Join Waitlist" button when I want to try it right now!
Ting feels like it was built by someone who gets how meetings really happen, so messy, human, full of last-minute changes.
Love the thinking behind this especially the idea of tuning into those small signals. Big respect to the team for betting on this. Hoping to see Ting goes big!
Dang, finally someone gets how messy real email scheduling is! Love that Ting just jumps into the thread and handles all the back-and-forth—my inbox is gonna breathe easier. Can it handle group threads too?
Congrats on the launch! The "mind-melding" definitely sounds interesting - potentially some great network externalities there
I'm quite familiar with the meeting booking space — it's what enables me to make a living these days!
So you might think that @Calendly and Motion cornered the market — but these were products from the pre-LLM era. Not that these products couldn't integrate more conversational flows, but if they were able to start over now — what would they do differently?
And that's what makes Meet-Ting timely, relevant, and worth a try!
Weirdly, I’m going to thank Rick Rubin for this one.
I’ve spent years at TikTok, ByteDance, adidas etc. but always too afraid to bet on myself.
In his book, Rick talks about tuning into signals - the ones artists and builders learn to hear.
One morning, after a blur of reschedule emails, I thought: why can’t AI just handle this?
(My theory: we wake up, feel what we feel, and change plans. The scheduling circus begins.)
As a daydreamer, ideas often float in and out. But this one stuck. So I tuned in.
What we built:
That moment became Meet-Ting (or just Ting) - a free AI scheduling assistant you CC into emails.
It reads the thread, checks calendars, suggests times, follows up, reschedules, and sends the invite.
Today it handles 1:1 meetings on Gmail. If both use Ting, it “mind-melds” and books instantly - no back-and-forth.
Why now?
For too long, we’ve booked meetings like machines: link → time → invite → accept → calendar jail.
But life isn’t static. Sometimes plans just shift. And link-based scheduling tools can't keep pace with this.
Ting is built for that reality - human, fluid, slightly chaotic.
We’re building toward a more emotionally intelligent scheduling system - one that learns your patterns, seeks context, and understands you time.
If meetings are more than just meetups to you - we’d love your feedback.
