Our take

Managing time should take minimal effort and consider an individual's life with complete respect for their privacy. Cronofy was founded with the intention of providing businesses with a secure and cutting-edge calendar API that meets these needs.

The company's edge comes from the fact that it can be used alongside Google Calendar and Apple Calendar, as well as Office 365, Outlook and Microsoft Exchange. This means that developers can work with just one API while building software.

Cronofy's direct competitors include big name companies such as Google and Apple, which have their own calendar APIs. However, the company's founders boast extensive startup experience, and they have successfully leveraged this to draw significant investment. Cronofy has managed to establish a high profile and secure reputation among businesses, and is in a strong position moving forward.

Company values

Truth. Honesty is not just the right thing to do. Lies and half-truths can feel expedient in the short-term, but the freedom gained from confronting the truth is where high performance and trust comes from.
When this baby hits 142kph... The magic happens when we operate at a speed that we can maintain long-term. We favor guidelines over rules and constantly prioritize value delivery without sacrificing the future.
Back from the future. We immerse ourselves in the future. We continuously question and challenge norms in order to find better answers to the scheduling problems of today and tomorrow.
Stop and look around once in a while. Knowledge work requires deep focus and mental energy. Social time together as well as away from work is critical to high performance and personal wellbeing.
Zero in. We start with users and build our priorities around their jobs to be done. Our experiments are thoughtful and collaborative. Successes and failures are reviewed together so we're always improving.
