In the world of tech, it’s easy to get distracted by the noise. One day, a cloud giant is making a multi-billion dollar bet on an AI you’ve never heard of; the next, they’re apparently also in charge of making sure your favorite dance-challenge app runs smoothly. It’s a wild ride. While those headlines are entertaining, our focus at meetergo remains squarely on building foundational technology that solves a real, complex problem: scheduling. This update is a direct reflection of that focus.
This time, we’re sharing a look into the future of our API platform, which is already empowering our partners to build sophisticated scheduling experiences. We’re also addressing recent performance challenges head-on with a significant infrastructure overhaul that ensures a faster, more resilient meetergo for everyone. And, as always, we’ve shipped a host of workflow improvements and fixes designed to make your day-to-day scheduling more seamless and intuitive. Let's dive in.
Build on the Best: The meetergo API Platform Enters a New Phase
Scheduling seems simple on the surface. You pick a time, you book a meeting. But as any product team that has attempted to build it from scratch will tell you, the reality is a labyrinth of complexity. Time zones, daylight saving, recurring availability, group meetings, round-robin routing, calendar sync conflicts, and automated workflows—these are just a few of the challenges that can derail a development roadmap for months, if not years. There's a reason we’ve spent over five years relentlessly refining the meetergo engine: it's a monumental task to get right.
This is the core reason for the immense interest in our API platform. Product teams are recognizing that building scheduling is a poor use of their engineering resources when they can instead leverage meetergo’s battle-tested infrastructure. Our API platform is currently in a closed beta, where integration partners are actively using it to embed powerful meetergo scheduling logic directly into their own products. The feedback has been invaluable, and our team is already deep in development on v4 of the API. This next evolution is architected from the ground up to be more stable, perform dramatically faster, and solidify its position as the most robust and comprehensive scheduling API on the market.
For enterprises looking to integrate advanced, reliable scheduling into their own software, the meetergo API provides a direct path to a market-leading feature set without the multi-year investment and maintenance headache. It enables you to deliver the full power of meetergo—from simple one-on-one bookings to complex, rule-based team scheduling—all within your own branded user experience.

Seamless Calendar Connections, Managed Entirely Through the API
One of the most significant hurdles in building any scheduling-adjacent product is calendar integration. Managing authentication (OAuth) for Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange, and other providers is a complex and ongoing maintenance burden. Each provider has its own API, its own quirks, and its own requirements for handling token refreshes and data synchronization. This is a critical piece of the puzzle that can stall development and frustrate users if not handled perfectly.
To solve this, our API platform now includes a comprehensive suite of new calendar routes. These endpoints allow you to build a complete, white-label calendar connection experience for your users. Using the meetergo API, your application can now prompt users to connect their Google, Outlook, or other calendars, and our platform handles the entire authentication and synchronization process in the background. Your users connect their accounts within your interface, and you manage their connection status programmatically through our API.
This means you can build a product that relies on deep calendar integration without ever writing a single line of provider-specific connection code. You deliver a seamless, reliable experience to your users, and your team is freed from the significant engineering and maintenance effort of building and supporting multiple calendar integrations. It’s a fully managed, invisible-to-the-end-user solution that just works.

Faster, Stronger, More Resilient: A Platform-Wide Performance Overhaul
Our top priority is to provide a platform that is not only powerful but also exceptionally fast and reliable. In recent weeks, some users experienced intermittent slowness, particularly on meeting type overview pages and during the final steps of the booking process. We want to address this transparently: as meetergo's footprint grows and our booking widgets are embedded on an ever-increasing number of high-traffic websites, our infrastructure faces new and more advanced challenges. We've seen a significant surge in legitimate traffic, but this growth also makes us a target for sophisticated bots and other malicious activity.
In response, our engineering team immediately initiated a platform-wide performance and security audit. This was not a simple patch, but a deep-dive into our architecture to identify and eliminate bottlenecks and harden our defenses. We’ve re-architected critical database queries, implemented more intelligent caching layers for frequently accessed data, and deployed advanced traffic-shaping and bot-detection systems at our network edge. These are the kinds of complex, foundational improvements that prepare our platform for the next stage of growth.
The result is a noticeably faster and more resilient meetergo for all users. The meeting type overview page now loads significantly quicker, even for users with hundreds of meeting types. The booking page experience is snappier and more responsive, ensuring your clients and prospects can book with you without friction. We are relentlessly committed to platform availability and performance, and we will continue to invest heavily in our infrastructure to stay ahead of demand.

Quality-of-Life Improvements and Fixes
Beyond these major updates, our team has also been working on a number of smaller, impactful improvements and fixes to refine your daily experience.
Appointment Buffers Now Visible in Your Calendar
To provide a more accurate visual representation of your availability, appointment buffers are now displayed directly in your meetergo calendar view. This makes it easier to see at a glance how your day is structured and why certain time slots are unavailable, leading to more intuitive daily planning.
Learn more about configuring buffers.
Seamlessly Transfer Resources When Deleting a User
Administrators now have a more powerful and safer way to manage team transitions. When deleting a user from your organization, you are now prompted to transfer their resources—including all meeting types, connected apps, and workflows—to another user. This ensures a smooth hand-off and prevents the accidental loss of valuable assets and configurations.

Additional Fixes for a Smoother Experience
This update also includes a number of targeted bug fixes to improve platform stability and usability:
- Co-Host Calendar Invites: An issue where secondary co-hosts on a meeting did not have the correct email address in the ICS calendar file has been resolved. All hosts now receive proper calendar invites.
- Human-Readable Durations: On team profile pages, meeting durations are now displayed in a clear, human-readable format (e.g., “45 minutes”) instead of always showing the raw minute value.
- Company-Level Whereby API Key: Teams using the Whereby integration can now use a single, company-level API key for configuration, simplifying setup and management.
- Business Card Contrast: A contrast issue on certain business card templates that could lead to unreadable text has been fixed, ensuring your contact information is always clear.
- Basic User Calendar Invite Settings: A bug that prevented users on the Basic plan from changing their calendar invite settings has been corrected. This empowers all users to ensure their meeting types are configured to send invites properly.
- Round-Robin Reschedule Links: An edge case where reschedule links for next-generation round-robin meetings showed improper availability has been resolved, guaranteeing accurate availability for all rescheduling scenarios.
