How to Share Your Calendar Availability Without a Link

Connect Google Calendar

1. Connect Google Calendar

We only see when you're busy and free, never event details.

Set your window

2. Set your window

Pick your date range, working hours, and timezone. Or just use the defaults.

Copy and paste anywhere

3. Copy and paste anywhere

Your free times appear as plain text. Paste into any email, Slack message, or text.

Works especially well for

Coffee Chats

Don't be the weirdo sending a calendar link for a friendly coffee.

💼

Job Interviews

Sending a booking link to a recruiter is the fastest way to lose the job.

📊

Salespeople

Nothing cools a warm lead faster than a cold Calendly link.

🎓

Students

Be the hero of the group chat by actually picking a time instead of just asking “wbu?”

🤝

Client Calls

Give VIPs the white-glove treatment, not a data entry task.

🏠

Real Estate Agents

Text showing times before they call the next agent.

Read-only access

We can only see when you're busy and when you're free. We cannot see event names, attendees, descriptions, or any other details. We can never create, edit, or delete events.

🗑️

Nothing is stored

Your calendar data is fetched once to generate your availability, then immediately discarded. We don't keep it. Period.

🔐

Industry-standard authentication

We use OAuth 2.0 — the same login standard used by Google, Slack, Zoom, and every major platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ShareAvailability?

ShareAvailability is a free tool that connects to your Google Calendar and generates a plain-text list of your available times. Instead of sending someone a booking link, you get a clean list you can copy and paste into any email, text, or Slack message. It takes about ten seconds.

How do I share my Google Calendar availability as text?

Connect your Google Calendar (one click), pick your date range and working hours, and hit "Generate." You'll get a plain-text list of your free times. Copy it. Paste it wherever you're messaging someone. Done.

Is it safe to connect my Google Calendar to ShareAvailability?

Yes. We only get read-only access — we literally cannot create, edit, or delete events. We see when you're busy and when you're free, never event names, attendees, or details. Your data is fetched once and immediately discarded. We use OAuth 2.0, the same authentication standard used by Google, Zoom, and Slack.

Why share availability as plain text instead of a booking link?

A booking link says "schedule yourself into my calendar." A plain-text list says "here are some times that work — what's good for you?" It's a small difference that changes the tone of the entire interaction. For coffee chats, interviews, client calls, and sales conversations, text feels personal. We call it the white-glove approach to scheduling.

Is ShareAvailability a Calendly alternative?

It solves a different problem. Calendly is great when you want someone to self-book a meeting — think demos, onboarding, inbound leads. ShareAvailability is for when you want to share your availability without making the other person click a link and pick a slot. If the relationship matters more than the automation, ShareAvailability is the better fit.

Is ShareAvailability free?

Yep. Completely free. No paid tiers, no feature gates, no catches.

Can I check multiple Google Calendars for conflicts?

Yes. You can connect multiple Google Calendars (like Work and Personal) so your availability reflects all of your schedules. No more accidentally double-booking yourself.

Does ShareAvailability work with Outlook or Apple Calendar?

Currently Google Calendar only. Outlook and Apple Calendar support is on our roadmap.

Does ShareAvailability show my calendar events to anyone?

No. We only calculate your open time slots and output availability as text. We never display, share, or store your actual calendar events.

Your availability. Plain text. One click.

Free. No sign-up required.
