Details
Calendly is THE scheduling link. Tope Awotona bootstrapped it for 8 years with $200k of his own money before taking investment in 2021. Now has 20M+ users. Not the most innovative anymore, but it just works and everyone recognizes it.
DocSend lets you share docs and see exactly who viewed them, for how long, which pages. Founded by Russ Heddleston, acquired by Dropbox for $165M in 2021. Essential for fundraising: know if VCs actually read your deck or just skimmed page 1.
