Project Description
Our project seeks to create a user-friendly application that greatly enhances the event scheduling experiences for students and working executives such that scheduling is made more efficient with hassle-free synchronization and recommendation of meeting locations, as well as going beyond performing routine scheduling tasks by incorporating social elements. Based on the user-generated content shared by users, people can efficiently create and attend appointments at the right place and right time, with the right people.
Project Motivation
As students ourselves who attend meetings frequently, our dynamic lifestyle makes it troublesome to find a common time and a good place for our meetings. Our team is motivated by a common vision of enhancing the experience of people scheduling events. We aim to create a one-stop method of scheduling appointments that is both convenient and efficient, and at the same time goes beyond scheduling that enable users to develop social interactions.
