About Doodle
Doodle is an online scheduling platform that simplifies finding the best meeting time for groups. Founded in 2007 in Zurich, it pioneered the concept of scheduling polls where participants vote on available time slots. Doodle offers group polls, 1:1 booking pages, and sign-up sheets, all integrated with popular calendar services like Google Calendar, Outlook, and iCal. The platform eliminates the back-and-forth emails typically required to coordinate meetings, making it especially useful for cross-team and external scheduling. With over 30 million monthly users worldwide, Doodle serves professionals, educators, and organizations that need to efficiently coordinate meeting times across multiple participants.
