How One Founder Made Scheduling Feel Human Again and Hit $20k+ MRR (2-min read)

THE BACKSTORY:

Derrick Reimer had already co-founded Drip (a SaaS email tool).

After growing and selling it, he began exploring new opportunities.

That's when he encountered a universal pain point: scheduling meetings.

While tools like Calendly worked, they felt impersonal.

Sending a scheduling link often came across as saying, "Here, you figure it out."

He wanted a more thoughtful approach.

So he built it.

That became SavvyCal.

THE PRODUCT BREAKDOWN:

SavvyCal makes scheduling feel more collaborative and less transactional.

→ You send someone a link

→ They see your availability overlaid with their own calendar

→ They pick a time that works for both parties

Key features:

→ Calendar overlay: see your schedule next to theirs

→ Meeting polls: perfect for group availability
