About ClearCal

ClearCal addresses the problem that every event in a busy Google Calendar looks the same. The extension classifies events and applies colors automatically so that customer calls, one-to-ones, internal meetings, focus blocks and weekend events stand out before you need to prepare for them.

It works inside Google Calendar as a Chrome extension. New users get a 7-day trial of every feature, after which they can keep a Free plan or upgrade. The site describes the aim as turning calendar noise into a clear signal, with before and after examples of a weekly view.

ClearCal is a commercial product that is free to install with no credit card required. The homepage mentions a Lifetime plan and a limited discount for early customers who share a testimonial; other plan prices are not in the scraped text.
