Calendly Meeting Polls help you quickly find a time that works for everyone. Invitees vote on the times they prefer, and once voting ends, you pick the best option. Calendly takes care of the scheduling and invites.
For example, you can:
- Plan a team sync or project check-in
- Brainstorm ideas in a collaborative session
- Collect feedback from stakeholders
- Choose a time to meet with friends or family
Before you begin
- Anyone with the poll link can vote—no Calendly account needed.
- Meeting Polls support up to 40 time slots and 40 participants.
- You can’t add new time slots after publishing the poll.
- Workflows and rescheduling aren't currently supported.
