December 2025 updates - Host controls, availability fixes, and API improvements

As more teams rely on NeetoCal for day-to-day scheduling, small details start to matter a lot. December’s updates focus on removing friction, making availability smarter, host management clearer, and integrations more reliable across the product.

Here’s a complete look at everything we shipped this month.

New features 🚀

Host tab in the sidebar

We’ve introduced a dedicated Host tab in the left sidebar, a centralized place to manage all host-level settings. This gives hosts a clear overview of the settings they control, while making it easier for admins to review and manage host configurations across the workspace. As teams grow, this separation helps reduce confusion

Nicknames for scheduling links

When hosts create multiple scheduling links with the same public meeting name, such as “Meeting with Oliver” for different regions or teams, it can be hard to distinguish them inside NeetoCal. With Nickname, hosts and workspace admins can add a private label to each link, making them easier to identify internally while clients continue to see the same public meeting name on the booking page.

SMS integration with Telnyx

NeetoCal now supports Telnyx as an SMS provider, alongside Twilio.

This gives teams a more affordable and easy-to-configure option for sending SMS notifications to clients, especially useful for high-volume scheduling workflows.

Custom domain email support

You can now send emails from Outlook or other custom email providers using your own domain. This ensures consistent branding, improves deliverability, and keeps all communication looking professional, especially important for customer-facing teams.

Enhancements✨

Improved buffer time handling for Out-of-Office hours

Earlier, NeetoCal applied buffer time even when a user marked themselves as out of office, which unnecessarily blocked additional slots, especially in round-robin scheduling. Since out-of-office means unavailability and not a meeting, buffer time is no longer applied in these cases. The time remains blocked to prevent bookings, but without extra buffer, helping teams avoid losing valid slots and revenue.

Video call link changes visible in the timeline

Any change made to a video call link is now logged in the meeting timeline. This shows when the link was updated and who made the change, making it easier for teams and admins to track updates and troubleshoot issues.

Improved discount reports

Discount reports now display the total number of meetings per client. This removes the need for manual counting and makes it quicker to analyze usage and understand how discounts are being applied.

Google Calendar color sync

NeetoCal now uses the same predefined color palette as Google Calendar. This keeps meeting colors consistent across both platforms and makes schedules easier to scan and understand at a glance.

Clearer Google Meet connected account

The Google Meet integration page now clearly shows which Google account is currently connected, similar to the Zoom integration. This helps avoid confusion in workspaces where multiple Google accounts are used.

Timezone included in scheduling URLs

Scheduling links now include timezone information when a host selects a date and time. This ensures that people opening the link in a different timezone see the correct converted time, preventing confusion and missed meetings.

Revamped permissions for better access control

Permissions have been improved to give admins more granular control over what team members can view and manage. This makes it easier to scale teams while keeping ownership, security, and responsibilities clear.

Consistent meeting duration order on intro pages

Scheduling links offering multiple meeting durations on intro pages are now shown in a consistent ascending duration order across all scheduling links. Earlier, some links displayed durations in ascending order while others showed them in descending order, which made comparisons confusing, especially when choosing links based on duration or pricing. This update ensures a predictable, easy-to-scan experience everywhere.

Improved Google Sheet sync at the workspace level

We’ve improved the Google Sheet integration to ensure data stays consistent regardless of where updates are made. Additional guests added by admins from the NeetoCal dashboard now sync correctly to Google Sheets, just like guests added from the booking page. We’ve also added support for syncing client phone numbers into Google Sheets, placing them alongside name and email so commonly used fields are always available at the workspace level.

Bug fixes ⚒️

Host change & video link regeneration

Fixed an issue where changing the host did not regenerate the video call link, which previously prevented the new host from joining the meeting.

Slot listing navigation

Resolved a bug on scheduling pages where users were not redirected to the next available slot when navigating between months.

Round Robin buffer time

Fixed cases where buffer time was ignored while assigning hosts in Round Robin scheduling, ensuring availability rules are applied correctly.

Report time filters

Reports now correctly respect the selected date range during tabular view instead of always showing all-time data, making it more accurate and reliable.
