Introducing Skej’s AI-Powered Meeting Scheduling Assistant, Your Virtual Email Administrator for Efficient Time Management
Meet Skej, the new startup that’s changing the way we schedule meetings. Founded by serial entrepreneur Paul Canetti and his team, Skej is an AI assistant that helps you find the best time to meet with others, without having to browse through their availability.
The Problem with Scheduling Meetings
We’ve all been there – staring at a calendar, trying to figure out when everyone is available to meet. It’s tedious, time-consuming, and often frustrating. Paul Canetti, CEO of Skej, knows this pain all too well. "I’ve never met anyone in my life who loves scheduling meetings," he says.
The Birth of Skej
Paul’s previous startup, Bounce House, allowed people to book blocks of time with professionals like yoga or piano teachers. However, Paul realized that scheduling was a major pain point for his users. He wanted to create something that would make scheduling easier and more efficient.
Meet the Skej Team
The founding team behind Skej includes Paul Canetti, CEO; Michael Schimanski, CTO; and Sarah Wang, Designer. The team is remotely distributed, with three full-time engineers and several part-time contractors.
How Skej Works
Skej uses AI to analyze the availability of all parties involved in a meeting. It then suggests a time that works for everyone. Users can input their preferences, such as specific dates or times, and Skej will adjust accordingly.
No App Required
One of the unique features of Skej is that it doesn’t require users to download an app. Instead, it integrates with existing tools and workflows, making it easy to use for anyone. "We’re not forcing you into a particular app or workflow," says Paul. "We want to be totally agnostic."
Free for Now
Skej is currently in public beta and free to use. However, the team plans to add a paid tier soon. They’re collecting feedback from users to improve the product and make it more user-friendly.
Investors
Skej has received pre-seed funding from several notable investors, including Betaworks, Mozilla Ventures, Stem AI, Spice Capital, Deftly.vc, and Differential Ventures.
The Future of Skej
As Skej continues to grow and evolve, the team plans to add more features and integrations. They’re also working on making it possible for users to categorize their calendars using natural language.
Conclusion
Skej is a game-changer in the world of scheduling meetings. With its AI-powered technology and seamless integration with existing tools, it’s easy to see why over 1,000 users have already signed up. Stay tuned to see how Skej continues to innovate and make our lives easier.
