The short version

  • Only Woven has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: TidyCal sold as a one-time lifetime purchase from $29 up to $300 depending on tier rather than a subscription, which is unusual among scheduling tools; Woven the Internet Archive's capture of Woven's homepage on 30 December 2020 named specific features (Smart Templates, Scheduling Links, Availability Sharing, Group Polls) and confirmed integration with Google, G Suite and Office 365, but the linked Pricing page itself could not be retrieved from the archive.
