A calendar sync tool copies events from one calendar account onto another and keeps the copies current, so every calendar shows the same busy times. These nine do that job, compared here on price, free plan, update speed and which calendars they connect. Keeper.sh, which publishes this comparison, is the pick for people with work and personal calendars on different providers: it connects Google Calendar, Outlook, iCloud, Fastmail and any CalDAV server. It is free for 2 calendar accounts and 3 connections, and Pro is $5 a month for unlimited calendars.
Figures for other tools come from each tool's own website, linked beside them, and were checked on 10 November 2026.

How Keeper.sh syncs calendars
Keeper.sh is a calendar sync service that copies events between Google Calendar, Outlook, iCloud, Fastmail and any CalDAV server. Each copy is a busy block named after the source calendar. The title, description and location are hidden by default, Pro can turn them back on per calendar, and guest lists are never copied. Each connection runs one way, so two-way sync is two connections; the calendar sync features page lists what else each connection can do. The Free plan covers 2 calendar accounts and 3 connections, with changes landing every 30 minutes. Pro is $5 a month or $45 a year, with Google and Outlook changes landing within seconds and iCloud, Fastmail and CalDAV changes landing every minute (pricing).
Google and Outlook connect by signing in, iCloud with an app-specific password and Fastmail with an app password. Create a Keeper.sh account to connect the first two calendars; the Free plan needs no card.

Calendar sync tools with an MCP server
Keeper.sh, SyncDate, OneCal, CalendarBridge and Kalender Sync each publish an MCP server, the connector that lets an AI assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT read and change a calendar.

https://www.keeper.sh/mcpand signs in with OAuth 2.1 and a consent screen, with no API key. Its tools are listed in the Keeper.sh MCP reference, and the Free plan includes 25 API and MCP calls a day. - SyncDate: Platform MCP is on every plan, and Calendar Hub MCP, which works with calendar events, is on Plus, Pro and Team.

Calendly and Morgen: a booking tool and a calendar app
- Calendly is a booking tool. It "checks your calendar for busy times and adds new meetings to it"; its free plan connects 1 calendar and its paid plans connect up to 6 per user. A calendar sync tool copies the busy time from every other calendar onto one Calendly checks; how to stop Calendly double-booking has the steps.

Keeper.sh's Free plan covers 2 calendar accounts and 3 connections, SyncDate's covers 2 accounts and 1 sync, Kalender Sync's covers 2 calendar accounts and 1 sharing with another person, CalendarSync's covers 2 calendar accounts and 1 sync configuration, and Reclaim.ai's Lite plan includes 1 Calendar Sync between Google Calendar and Outlook.
Which calendar sync tools work with iCloud?

How fast do calendar sync tools update?
Tools that receive change notifications from Google and Outlook update fastest: within seconds on Keeper.sh Pro, and usually in under a minute on SyncDate. iCloud and CalDAV calendars are checked on a timer: every minute on Keeper.sh Pro, every 5 to 10 minutes on CalendarBridge, up to 10 minutes on OneCal and about every 15 minutes on SyncDate.
Does Keeper.sh do two-way sync?
Yes. Keeper.sh sets up two-way sync as two connections, one in each direction. A two-way pair uses 2 accounts and 2 connections, which fits the Free plan with one connection spare.
Can a calendar sync tool stop double-booking through Calendly or another booking tool?
Yes. A booking tool blocks only the times that are busy on the calendars it checks. Keeper.sh copies events from your other calendars onto that calendar as busy blocks, so the booking tool stops offering those times.
Will colleagues see private event details on a synced copy?
No, not by default. A Keeper.sh copy is a busy block named after the source calendar, with the title, description and location hidden, and guest lists are never copied on any plan.
