Good to know
What is not
connected yet.
The current limits, stated as they are.
- One-way calendar.Beedy writes to Google Calendar. Outlook, Apple and sync back from the calendar are not connected.
- No public API.Access keys and outgoing webhooks are not open.
- No connected accounting.No accounting software or automation tool is connected.
- SMS to US numbers.They depend on carrier registration. Until then, the inbox, email and push cover the gap.
Does Beedy read my Google Calendar?
No. Beedy creates events for your accepted jobs. It does not read your other appointments and does not change them.
What does the brief contain, and what does it leave out?
The work to do, the materials, an estimated duration and an urgency note. Never the street, floor, access code or client phone number.
Can I turn alerts off at night?
Yes. Quiet hours apply as soon as you save your notification preferences, 10 pm to 7 am by default: no new request SMS or push during that window. The inbox and email stay up to date.
Team link or named invitation?
The team link is shared in a group and works many times, until you turn it off. A named invitation targets one person and expires after 30 days.
Do I need to install an app?
No. Beedy runs in the browser. On a phone, it can be added to the home screen, with a separate app for contractors.
