Share busy only
Share your work calendar as Busy, not the details.
Your family needs to know when you're free. They don't need to know it's a board meeting. Braid shares your work calendar as plain Busy blocks.

What they see.
| On your calendar | On their calendar |
|---|---|
| Board meeting, 9:00 to 10:00 | Busy, 9:00 to 11:00 |
| Q3 revenue review, 10:00 to 11:00 | (merged into the block above) |
| Company holiday (all day, free) | Nothing |
| One-on-one with Dana, 2:00 to 2:30 | Busy, 2:00 to 2:30 |
Private by design.
- No titles, notes, attendees or locations ever appear on a Busy only link.
- Back-to-back meetings show as one block, so nobody can count them.
- Events marked as free are left out.
- The recipient can turn the share off from the link's page, with no account.
Questions
How do I share my Outlook calendar as busy only with my family?
Add your Outlook calendar to Braid with its ICS link, then create a share link set to Busy only and send it to your family.
Can I give different people different levels of detail?
Yes. Make one link per audience. For example, Busy only for your household and full details for your assistant.
Does the recipient need Braid?
No. They subscribe to the link in the calendar app they already use.
Every calendar, woven into one.
