Congrats to the Sunsama team on the launch! Very well timed with today being the day Sunrise is officially shutting down 😊 — teams (and yourself) should give Sunsama a try 📅✨
@nivo0o0 really excited to be hunted and share what we've built. looking forward to learning from the PH community!

@nivo0o0 yeah now every time I consider a new calendar I think to myself, I wonder if they'll just sell out and shutdown. High five sunrise. Oh wait, they probably aren't listening they probably are on a beach somewhere slurping mojitos. 💩😡 admittedly true of everything, not just calendars. Shorts, I'm looking at you.
Hey ProductHunt! It's been a long few months! Travis, Mike, and I started building Sunsama in January, launched our private beta in April and are now thrilled to share it with all of you.
It's also exciting that today is the day that Sunrise shuts down! We think your calendar can be so much more than a personal productivity tool that tells you where to go and who to meet. We built Sunsama for you and your team to work better together. That means Sunsama is there to help you get the most out of every meeting, and stay on top of all your action items.
You might be wondering what a "calendar for teams" is!
- Calendars are more than little blocks. We want to help you get the most out of the time you spend working with your colleagues.
- You already have meetings. We want to help you structure them, document them and follow up on them from the most natural place possible i.e. your calendar!
- Meetings are where we figure out what we need to do. That's why we've deeply integrated tasks into your calendar.
Thanks to Niv for hunting us :) And thanks to everyone who helped us build Sunsama while we were in private beta. Anyone who signs up via PH can join our private Slack community and help us build the calendar for serious work they've always wanted, look forward to learning from all of you!
@stinhambo They were two totally different products! The first thing we built (with the same name) was a social network for scheduling. Imagine LinkedIn but every profile was linked to a calendar and let you find mutual available times.

@thepriyadarshy Ah ok, for some reason, @producthunt updates the images on the original product which makes it hard to compare. There should be a sunset section of Product Hunt!
Congrats on the launch! I had the distinct privilege of being in the pilot program. This is a game changer. It's not just a better calendar than anything else out there (and I used Sunrise and I used Tempo both of which I quite liked) it really rethinks how to run meetings, take notes and collaborate. This is an absolute must have.
@mandarparikh Thanks, Mandar! I just pulled up my notes (with Sunsama of course) of our first conversations. It was several months ago now but those early conversations really helped us get our head right and make sure we built something that works with the way real people work!

Looking sharp. Two questions off the top of my head:
- How will integrations with other task managers work, where Sunsama is also doing task management?
- Any plans for native apps on Mac/iOS/Android/PC?
@ryanjamurphy Thanks! In response to your questions:
- We want to make it easy for tasks you create in Sunsama during your meetings or as you go through your day to be easily exported into the task manager of your choice. In this case, Sunsama is helping you "tee up" your tasks so you can flesh them out in more depth without breaking your current flow. Also, we want you to be able to selectively pull in your existing tasks from your Asana/Jira/Trello so you can prioritize when you want to work on them (and potentially block off time on your calendar).
- Yes, there are plans for native apps, but realistically they won't be shipped for at least several months. We're trying to nail the web app experience and then use React Native so we can port without a full rebuild. We're a really tiny team (there's only 3 of us), so we can only move so fast!
Congrats to Ashutosh and team for the incredible product. I love the direction and focus they've put into Sunsama! 🚀

Congrats to the team, I've loved seeing the product evolve over the past 6 months or so, and I'm slowly converting people to make my meetings more productive.
