About Cal

Being open-source has a lot of tradeoffs. It has been an incredible growth journey so far thanks to its word-of-mouth nature and developer interest, but OSS is known for making it hard to capture the generated value early on. A SaaS business can capture a higher % of revenue per customer, but ultimately they will be capped by the people they can reach. Governments, Healthcare, and other highly regulated industries not only prefer but are often required to self-host, which open source makes possible in the most secure and trusted manner. Our hunch is that SaaS infrastructure is only scratching the surface of the scheduling space and CEOs in the industries agree that the entire market is still in its infancy. Going head-to-head as a SaaS company against existing market leaders is a fool's errand, hence we are doing similar things in a fundamentally different category: Open Scheduling.
