Details
Loom lets you record quick screen + face videos instead of scheduling meetings. Insanely useful for async teams. Started bootstrapped on maxed credit cards, grew to 10M+ users, sold to Atlassian for $975M in 2023. The free tier is still generous enough for most solo use. Business costs $18 per user per month and removes the video and length limits, and Business + AI costs $24 with AI editing; paying annually saves up to 17%.
SavvyCal makes scheduling collaborative instead of “here’s my link, pick a slot.” Built by Derrick Reimer (who co-founded Drip), it lets people overlay their own calendar when booking, which feels way less one-sided than traditional scheduling links. Bootstrapped to over $1M ARR.
