What is Rallly?

Rallly is a group meeting scheduler built around a simple poll. You suggest a few dates and times, share one link, and each participant marks which options work for them. The results show the time that suits the most people, and when you finalise the poll Rallly emails everyone a calendar invite.

Participants do not need an account to vote, and each person sees the options in their own time zone, which helps with groups spread across countries. Creating a poll does not need an account either, though a free one lets you manage your polls from any device and get notified about responses. Rallly is open source and can be self-hosted with Docker, and the site says it has no ads and does not sell your data.
