it is to allow people to charge for their bookings. we currently run stripe connect, because thats the easiest but we want to extend it to other payment services.

for example therapists, coaches, gym trainers, etc use paid bookings

> The pricing tiers on the website are also misleading/incorrect. For example, the free tier has unlimited event type only for the duration of a trial period. After that it downgrades you to 1 active event type at a time.

hey hey, that pricing is long gone. there are no trials anymore, everything is that is PRO on calendly is free on cal.com

hey, peer here from cal.com.

that statement is not completely accurate:

the open source core is a fully-fledged full-stack app with tRPC as the API.

nothing of that requires a license.

however, we have an private REST API for admins etc, which you only ever need if you have >100 users -- and likely run a commercial product.

Peer_Rich··on Misrepresenting open source for business benefit
hey dan, it's Peer here, cofounder of Cal.com.

Thanks for pointing this out -- at the end it's about interpretation but we made changes to the readme to be more clear around distribution: https://github.com/calcom/cal.com#setup

TLDR: of course you can clone the repo into a personal folder. When I had the conversation with you I was mostly thinking you are referring to distributing, which is only possible in a public repository.

You can use the code for yourself on your private machine.

This license is specifically targeted against BigTech who have a track record of taking MIT / Apache code, making it proprietary without giving anything back.

See the ongoing Amazon Elasticsearch conflict.

Plausible wrote a great article about this and we decided to go to AGPLv3 after talking to the founders: https://plausible.io/blog/open-source-licenses
