Bottom line

Calendar API and scheduler behind other products. The Cronofy Scheduler starts at $15 per seat a month; the API for software products starts at $819 a month billed annually.

Stands out for: The scheduling layer other recruiting products sit on (Workday, Greenhouse, SmartRecruiters, BambooHR, iCIMS named), not a Calendly clone.

Watch out for: The API plans (from $819/mo billed annually) are infrastructure for software products, not a recruiter seat; recruiters want the Scheduler plans.

Overview

Cronofy is a calendar API and embedded scheduler used behind recruiting and meeting products. Workday, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, BambooHR, iCIMS, Slack, Teams, and Zoom are named on the integrations page. There is a first-party MCP and API.

The API for software products starts at $819 a month billed annually (Emerging), then $2,399 (Growth), with metered extras and a $99 monthly minimum for standalone use.
