Text2Calendar
Convert text, emails, and messages into calendar events
I built Text2Calendar to solve one boring workflow: manually copying meeting details from messages into Google Calendar. It converts text into a calendar-ready event from webpages, emails, and chats. The key difference is simplicity: highlight or paste text, get a pre-filled event link, keep your timezone correct, and don’t grant calendar access.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Text2Calendar because I kept doing the same annoying thing over and over: someone would send me a meeting date in plain text, and I had to manually recreate it in Google Calendar.
This happened a lot with recruiter and HR messages, client chats, emails, and random web pages. Small task, but repeated often enough to become frustrating.
So I built a lightweight tool that turns plain text into a ready-to-save calendar event.
Right now Text2Calendar works as:
a Chrome extension
a web app
a Telegram bot
an API
What I wanted to keep different from other tools was simplicity:
highlight or paste text
extract title, date, and time
handle timezone properly
generate a pre-filled Google Calendar link
no direct calendar access required
I also built most of it with Cursor, so this launch was not just about shipping a product, but also about learning a faster way to build and iterate.
What I’d love feedback on:
Does this feel like a real repeated pain point?
Which format makes the most sense long term: extension, site, bot, or API?
Where would you personally use it most: recruiter messages, emails, chats, or webpages?
Thanks for checking it out.
Not demanding calendar access is the real killer feature here. So many micro-SaaS tools force you through OAuth just to perform a basic action.
I'm documenting the full launch journey — from idea to analytics — in my Telegram channel @IT_Launch. If you're curious how small products get built and shipped, it's all there.
