Why I built Tymeslot
I put out the first version of Tymeslot two days ago. I built it because the scheduling tools I tried were either dated or too heavy to run myself.

meetergo is a German, GDPR-focused scheduling suite hosted in Nuremberg. Tymeslot is hosted in Germany too, so the choice comes down to something else: open-source code you can self-host, one flat price, and a free plan with unlimited event types.
Updated 13 November 2026
meetergo is a proprietary scheduling suite from a German company, hosted at Hetzner in Nuremberg, with a data processing agreement included and generic CalDAV sync on every plan. Beyond booking pages it bundles round-robin team scheduling, a sales CRM, e-signatures, an AI notetaker and AI chat and phone assistants, priced by the number of people. Tymeslot is also hosted in Germany, so hosting is not what separates them. Tymeslot is open source under the GNU AGPLv3 and self-hostable with every feature, costs one flat price rather than per person, and its free plan has unlimited event types. It is a focused scheduler, not a suite: if you want team routing, a CRM or AI agents in the same tool, meetergo offers far more.
The differences that tend to matter when you're choosing between them.
Tested on 13 November 2026: we loaded meetergo's own demo booking page and a Tymeslot booking page in a fresh browser, without accepting any cookies, and recorded every host contacted. The meetergo demo page

Tymeslot's core is open source under the GNU AGPLv3, and you can run the whole product on your own server with every feature included. meetergo's platform is proprietary and runs only as meetergo's own hosted service; the code it publishes is limited to helper tools such as its embed script and MCP server.
Both tools are hosted in Germany: meetergo at Hetzner in Nuremberg, tymeslot.app on Netcup servers. The difference is choice. With Tymeslot you can also self-host, on your own hardware or with any provider you trust.
Tymeslot's free plan includes unlimited event types and calendar connections. meetergo's free plan allows three meeting types, although it does let up to three people use it.
Tymeslot Pro is a flat €9/month per account, for someone who takes their own bookings, less than meetergo Light at €12.90 for one person. meetergo's price grows with the team: Light is billed per person, and Suite and Premium include 3 people, then charge for each extra one.
Tymeslot does one job: booking links, two-way calendar sync, video links, reminders and payments. meetergo bundles a CRM, e-signatures and AI agents. That is a strength if you want them, and a lot of product to pay for and learn if you only need scheduling.
If you are looking for GDPR-compliant scheduling in Germany, meetergo is a serious option, and this page will not pretend otherwise. It is hosted in Nuremberg, operated by a German GmbH, includes a data processing agreement at sign-up, syncs with any CalDAV server, and takes payments through Stripe, PayPal or Mollie. For a sales team that wants round-robin routing, a CRM and AI meeting notes in one place, it covers a lot of ground.
The differences are elsewhere. meetergo is closed source and runs only as meetergo's own hosted service, so you rely on one vendor's servers and roadmap. Its paid plans are priced by the number of people, so the bill grows with your team. Its free plan stops at three meeting types.
Tymeslot is the open alternative. Its code is open source under the GNU AGPLv3, so you can read it, and you can run the whole product on your own server for free, or use tymeslot.app, hosted in the EU (Germany). Pro is one flat price per account, not per person, and the free plan has unlimited event types and calendar connections. You give up meetergo's suite features, and gain a scheduler you are never locked into.
No tool wins for everyone. Here's how they split.

Yes, if what you need is scheduling. Tymeslot covers booking links, two-way calendar sync with Google, Outlook and CalDAV, automatic video links, reminders and paid bookings, and adds open-source code, self-hosting, flat pricing and a free plan with unlimited event types. If you rely on meetergo's round-robin routing, CRM or AI assistants, Tymeslot does not replace them.
Hosting is not it: both run on servers in Germany and both offer a GDPR data processing agreement. The differences are that Tymeslot is open source and can be self-hosted, while meetergo is proprietary and cloud only; that Tymeslot charges one flat price while meetergo's price grows with the number of people; and that meetergo is a broader suite with team scheduling, a CRM and AI features.
Tymeslot Pro is a flat €9/month (€90/year) per account, with a free plan and free self-hosting. meetergo prices by team size: Light is €12.90 per person per month, while Suite (€99) and Premium (€179) cover 3 people per month and charge €19 or €24 for each extra person, all billed yearly and excluding VAT. For one person taking their own bookings Tymeslot costs less; with meetergo, every person added beyond a plan's allowance adds to the bill.
No. Tymeslot has no round-robin distribution or shared team booking pages. If you need to spread bookings across a team, meetergo is the better choice today.
Yes. Both connect to any CalDAV server, such as Nextcloud, alongside Google and Outlook. Tymeslot treats CalDAV as a first-class provider with two-way sync; meetergo includes its CalDAV integration on every plan.
Yes. Tymeslot's core is open source under the GNU AGPLv3 and self-hostable via Docker, Cloudron or Railway, with every feature included, even payments and automation, which are Pro features on the managed cloud. meetergo cannot be self-hosted.
On tymeslot.app, Tymeslot runs on Netcup servers in Germany and is operated by an EU company registered in Estonia; the data processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR is part of the Terms. Calendars you connect, such as Google or Outlook, keep their data with their own provider. If you self-host, you decide where Tymeslot runs. The privacy policy names the services that process data on tymeslot.app.
Yes. Booking pages, the dashboard and emails are available in nine languages: English, German, French, Italian, Ukrainian, Czech, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish.
