Getting started
Five minutes from sign-in to a working booking link. Here's the path.
01Sign in
Go to chosencal.com/login and pick Google or Microsoft. We use the same account for sign-in and for connecting your calendar — one click does both.
We never see your password. Authentication runs through Google / Microsoft directly; we get an access token that lets us read and write your calendar, and nothing else.
02Connect a calendar
The account you signed in with becomes your main calendar automatically. If you have other calendars (work + personal Google, an Outlook, a Titan/Fastmail account), add them on the Calendars page.
Every connected calendar mirrors busy time onto your main calendar so bookers never see slots you're actually busy in.
03Create your first scheduler
A scheduler is a booking page. Most people start with one called "30 Minute Meeting". Click New scheduler on the dashboard.
You can change duration, buffer, cooldown, working hours, and more later. The defaults are sensible — just hit save and adjust as you learn what you want.
04Share your link
Copy the public URL from the scheduler page (it looks like chosencal.com/book/yourname/30min) and paste it into an email, a Slack DM, a calendar invite, or your email signature.
If you only want one specific person to book — generate a one-time invite link from the same panel.
