The Best Way to Share Your Availability (Without Sending a Link)

You’ve probably seen it a hundred times: “Here’s my Calendly — grab a time that works for you.” And while scheduling links can be convenient in certain circumstances, let’s be honest, they don’t always land well, and we all hate receiving them. If you're scheduling in a more personal or high-touch scenario, like with a client, a candidate you really want to hire, or an investor, dropping a link can feel cold, impersonal, or even a little… presumptuous. But going to your calendar, finding your availability, and then manually typing out a list of dates and times? That’s a pain. There’s a better way: Skej — an AI scheduling assistant that shares your availability for you, in natural language, right inside your email threads. No links. No portals. Just a smarter, faster, more human way to schedule.

Why scheduling links aren't always ideal

Scheduling links work great for low-stakes meetings. But in many situations, they actually can create subtle friction. Think about when:

• You’re reaching out to a high-value client • A candidate is considering multiple offers • You’re coordinating with a busy executive (or their assistant) • You’re following up on a warm intro • You want to look like you are high value Links can feel like you’re saying, "I don't really care, and don't have my own assistant, you figure it out.” And for certain audiences, that’s a turn-off.

Enter Skej: The Best Alternative to Scheduling Links

Skej is an AI scheduling assistant that lives in your email. When you CC Skej (skej@skej.com) on a thread, it reads the context, checks your calendar and preferences, and offers up real, available times to the other person instantly and conversationally. It talks like a human, understands context like a human, but it's on 24/7, replies instantly, and most importantly, gets meetings booked. Here’s what it looks like:

That’s it. Skej proposes times, handles the replies, confirms the meeting, and sends out calendar invites — all without anyone clicking a single link.

It’s not just polite — it’s powerful

Because Skej works in natural language and in real time, it feels like a real assistant. It can: • Respect tone and formality in the thread • Adjust suggestions based on participant time zones • Follow your availability rules (e.g. “never book Mondays”, "15 min buffers between meetings") • Include your teammates (guess what- it already knows their availability) • Respond instantly when someone suggests a time • Reschedule or cancel if anything changes It’s professional. It’s responsive. And most importantly it doesn’t make the other person do the work.

Examples where Skej wins over links

• A VC replies to your outreach with: “Can you do sometime tomorrow? What works?” → Skej responds in seconds, proposes ideal times tomorrow, and books it before the VC leaves their inbox.

• A candidate emails back saying: “I’m generally free next week.” → Skej reads your calendar and your hiring manager’s, and suggests overlapping times next week automatically.

• A client replies late at night while you’re asleep: “What about 10am tomorrow your time?” → Skej confirms it while you’re still dreaming. Calendar invite sent.

No links. No friction. Just booked meetings.

If you’re tired of links that feel transactional, or endless email threads trying to find a time that works, Skej is your solution. It’s the best way to share availability in a way that feels natural, respectful, and fast — all while saving you the effort.
