The Smart Calendar is a plug in to your Google Calendar that makes it super simple to book your trip right from a calendar entry.

Scheduling and managing travel for face-to-face meetings is often time-consuming, requiring users to navigate multiple tools and platforms. This leads to inefficiencies and a fragmented booking experience. Furthermore, there’s a lack of options to make the process collaborative, seamless, and socially impactful, such as integrating charitable contributions or shared tools for team travel.

Design a seamless, user-centered tool that integrates travel booking directly within Google Calendar, simplifying scheduling and collaboration while enhancing the user experience.
