Date Polls turn a 12-reply email thread into a single link — share a few options, let people vote, and Calenix finds the time that works for the most people.
Why group scheduling breaks down
One-on-one scheduling is a solved problem — share a link, pick a time. Group scheduling is harder, because every extra person multiplies the number of constraints. What starts as "let's find a time next week" often ends as a week-long email thread with half-answers and no clear outcome.
How Date Polls works
Instead of proposing one time and hoping it works, you propose a handful of options. Everyone gets a single link, marks which times they can make, and Calenix tallies the results automatically. No spreadsheet, no reply-all thread, no manual counting.
Once enough responses are in, the organiser finalises the winning time with one click, and every participant gets a calendar invite instantly.
Where it fits best
Date Polls is built for the situations recurring 1-on-1 links don't cover well: panel interviews, leadership syncs, and any meeting where availability needs to be confirmed across more than two or three people before a time is locked in.
