How we compiled this
Self-serve USD pricing fetched from each vendor's official pricing page on 2026-06-15. monthlyUsd reflects the effective monthly cost on annual billing (smallest paid unit) as required by schema; month-to-month rates are noted in plan notes where known. annualDiscountPct is calculated where both billing periods are published. Cal.com annual prices ($12/$28) are billed annually with 25% savings vs month-to-month (~$16/$37). SavvyCal annual billing offers '2 months free' (~16.7% off); $10/$17 are month-to-month rates, annual effective ~$8.33/$14.17. Motion positions itself as an AI task/calendar planner with scheduling-link functionality; included because it is a direct Calendly competitor in self-serve scheduling. Zcal pricing page is JS-rendered and returned only navigation markup on direct fetch; price sourced from Zapier's 2026 scheduling-app roundup (zapier.com/blog/best-meeting-scheduler-apps, accessed 2026-06-15). YouCanBookMe pricing page is JS-rendered with all prices shown as '$0' placeholder (no USD figures extractable from HTML); multiple fallback sources (alternativeto.net mentions 'up to $14/month' without plan breakdown) did not yield verifiable per-plan USD figures; monthlyUsd set to null for all paid plans per methodology. TidyCal lifetime plans are one-time payments, not recurring; monthlyUsd set to null for lifetime tiers and the effective monthly rate of the Pro subscription is recorded. minutesIncluded/callsIncluded/overagePerMin/overagePerCall are null on all plans (non-telephony product category).
