While plenty of calendar tools exist, Woven aims to be the first to eliminate the back-and-forth email coordination issue. Founded by former Facebook executives Timothy Campos and Burc Arpat, Woven offers up an app and desktop website that helps streamline event making procedures. Allowing users to pick from a list of 'Suggested' events, the calender system uses natural language processing to ensure these events work best for a particular schedule.
Woven will then handle all the communication needed for scheduling and will naturally suggest times and locations that work best for all parties. Users can also take full control of the system and set things up manually. The service also features full integration with Google's G Suite and soon with Microsoft Office 365.
