A day in the life
Alex's Tuesday, with every calendar in one place
Alex runs a small company and is quietly starting a second venture on the side. That's three Google accounts: the company's Workspace, the new venture's, and a personal Gmail with school runs and the dentist.
Illustrative example. Nothing here is a real person or company. It's an example of how the pieces fit together.
8:10
Alex opens Tandem and sees the day across all three accounts. A supplier call on the company calendar overlaps a personal appointment, and Tandem flags it as a conflict.
9:30
An investor asks for time. Alex sends one booking link. It only offers slots that are free on every connected calendar, so the dentist and the venture's standup are safe.
11:00
The investor's booking lands on the company calendar with a Google Meet link. A cross-posting rule copies it to the other two calendars as Busy.
16:45
A teammate tries to grab Alex for a late review. The slot already shows Busy on the company calendar, so they pick another time.
How Tandem helps
Built for founders and operators
See everything
One agenda across the company, the venture and home
Tandem merges every connected Google account into one agenda. Invites that sit on two of your calendars show once, and overlaps are flagged only when they span different accounts.
- Choose which calendars count; colleagues' shared calendars start off
- Syncs every 10 minutes, or press Sync now
- Your own time zone, set once

No double-booking
Your colleagues see Busy, wherever you actually are
Cross-posting copies meetings from one account onto your others. Your team sees a Busy block, not your personal plans or the name of your side project.
- Busy, a neutral placeholder, or full details: per account pair
- Skip free, all-day and declined events
- Copies are removed when you turn a rule off
Protect your time
Hours that match how you actually work
Keep separate schedules for company hours and venture hours, block out holidays, and override single days without touching the rest of the week.
- Several time ranges per day
- Date-specific overrides

Recommended setup
How to set it up
A setup that works well for a founder with two or three accounts:
- Connect your company account, your personal Gmail and any venture account
- Turn on only your own calendars; leave colleagues' shared calendars off
- Add a cross-posting rule from personal to company as Busy
- Create an Intro call event type that books into the company calendar
- Set working hours with a date override for days you're out
Some of these, like cross-posting rules and more than two accounts, are on Pro. Join during the beta and get Pro free for at least six months. Compare plans
