DOFOTT adds travel time to Google Calendar: a block before and after every event with a place, with real Google Maps durations. Shows up in Notion Calendar, Apple, Akiflow and more. Private: reads only time and place. No titles, no attendees, no tracking cookies. Fair: 12 meetings a month free. Busy month? $5, then unlimited. Quiet month, $0. Public: our numbers are live at dofott.com/built-in-public.
The "Don't go home. Go there." image honestly sums up the best part for me. Going straight from one meeting to the next instead of assuming I head home first is the detail most calendar tools skip. And the "no revenue chart because there's no revenue yet" line on the built in public page was refreshing to read.
One question: how does it handle vague locations? Like when an event just says "Starbucks" or "Office" with no real address. Does it guess the closest match, or skip the block until there's something Maps can actually find?
@emir_citak Thanks Emir, that "Don't go home. Go there." moment is exactly the one I built this for :)
Short answer: DOFOTT doesn't guess. It passes the event's location to Google Maps as written. If Maps can't find a real place, no block is written. A wrong block is worse than none, so it stays quiet instead.
"Office" on its own usually lands there: no block. "Starbucks" is trickier. Maps may resolve it to a Starbucks, but not necessarily yours, so adding the area helps ("Starbucks, Nişantaşı"). Anything that comes out longer than 3 hours by road is dropped anyway.
And every block carries a link to that trip's own page. There you can switch it off or change where it starts from.
Treating "Office" as your work address when you've set one is next on my list. Your question just moved it up.
Such a useful product help me organize my day. Especially in Istanbul the commuting is something very important and sometimes we are not able to plan it. Dafott’s this functionality is exceptional. I really liked it.
@gokhan_uc1 Thanks a lot for highly motivating comment. We appreciate that! (and started working more :))
A nice solution for a real life problem, love it. Congrats.
