Comparison

Meetrao vs SavvyCal

SavvyCal's idea is that the person you are sending the link to should not have to do the work. They overlay their own calendar on yours and pick a time that suits both, instead of reading a grid of your free slots. It is the nicest booking experience in this comparison and Meetrao does not have it.

What SavvyCal does not have is a free plan. Basic is $12 per user per month, or $10 per user per month billed annually, and a custom domain means Premium at $20 per user per month, or $17 per user per month billed annually.

That is the trade this page is about. SavvyCal is a better experience for your guest. Meetrao is free, and its custom domain costs $30 a year for the whole account rather than per user per month.

Where SavvyCal is the better choice

This section is first on purpose. A comparison written by one of the two products is worth reading only if it starts here.

The overlay is genuinely betterYour guest sees their own calendar on top of your availability and picks a time that works for both, rather than guessing at a grid. It is the single best idea in consumer scheduling and Meetrao has nothing like it.
Ranked availabilityYou can mark the hours you would prefer, and SavvyCal nudges guests towards them without hiding the rest. Meetrao's hours are open or closed, with nothing in between.
Meeting pollsFor finding a time across several people, SavvyCal runs a poll. Meetrao has group sessions, where several guests book the same slot, which is a different thing and not a substitute.
Several calendars and providersSavvyCal connects as many calendars as you have, across providers. Meetrao reads one Google Calendar, which is the limit most likely to rule it out.

Where Meetrao is the better choice

There is a free plan at allSavvyCal has no free tier: Basic is $12 per user per month, or $10 per user per month billed annually. Meetrao's booking product is free and has no trial clock on it.
A domain of your own, for $30 a yearSavvyCal puts custom domains on Premium, at $20 per user per month, or $17 per user per month billed annually. Meetrao charges $30 a year for the account, and that includes your own logo and colours.
Nothing per seatMeetrao's team link is part of Pro rather than a line item per person, so adding somebody to a round-robin does not change the bill.
It reads busy and free, never what your meetings areMeetrao asks Google which periods are busy. It never requests event titles, guests, descriptions or attachments, see the Privacy Policy, which names every permission.

Questions

Does SavvyCal have a free plan?

No. SavvyCal's pricing page offers a trial backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee, and the cheapest paid tier is $12 per user per month, or $10 per user per month billed annually. Meetrao's booking product is free.

Does Meetrao have the calendar overlay?

No. Your guest sees a list of your free times, converted to their timezone, and picks one. SavvyCal's overlay is better and this page is not going to pretend the difference does not exist.

Which is cheaper for a custom domain?

Meetrao, by a wide margin. SavvyCal puts custom domains on Premium, at $20 per user per month, or $17 per user per month billed annually. Meetrao's is $30 a year for the whole account. SavvyCal's Premium plan includes a great deal more than a domain, so this is a comparison of one feature rather than of the two plans.
