OnceHub vs Timekit (2026): which should you pick?

Pick OnceHub if

• Fits if your sales or service team qualifies leads before anyone gets a slot
• Works for advisors, coaches and clinics whose clients book by phone as well as online

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you only want round robin, which starts on Route at $19 a seat a month billed annually
• Tight if you're staying free and need a second calendar or a second booking link
• Pricey if you want chatbots, which need Engage at $39 a seat, or SSO and HIPAA, a $5-a-seat add-on on top
• Watch out: text notifications need SMS credits, plans include only 1 to 3 phone numbers, and extras are $4 a month
• Not for you if you want a phone app, as it's web and a browser extension only

Pick Timekit if

• Fits if you build booking into your own app and want an API
• Works for teams where each bookable person or room is billed as a resource

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you want the API: Professional is $149 a month for 15 resources
• Skip it if you want a free plan, as none is listed
• Watch out: a resource counts once it gets more than one booking in a month, and extras cost $5 to $15
• Watch out: premium response time, integration help and a 99.9% SLA are paid add-ons
• Watch out: only monthly prices are shown

OnceHub

• The free Basic plan is limited to one user, one connected calendar and one booking link.

• Prices shown are monthly; the pricing page we read shows no separate annual rate.

OnceHub

Booking pages and hubs

A visual designer builds booking pages with availability by location, approval before confirmation and multilingual journeys. Hubs gather several calendars behind one link.

Routing forms

From the Route plan, forms screen visitors and route them by their answers or contact properties, with the time picker shown inside the form.

Meeting distribution

Route assigns hosts dynamically by round robin, maximum availability or priority, can assign a booking to the contact's CRM owner, and supports meeting reassignment.

Phone agents

Paid plans include dedicated booking phone numbers where AI agents screen callers and book them using the account's existing scheduling rules. Extra numbers cost $4 a month.

Web chatbots

On Engage, chatbots answer visitor questions from your knowledge sources, route by AI or rules, and hand off to live chat or an instant meeting.

Integrations, API and MCP

Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange and iCloud calendars, five video tools and an MCP server for AI assistants are on every plan. Paid plans add CRM sync, Stripe, APIs and webhooks.

Timekit

Appointment types

Offer one-on-one, group, round-robin or prioritized bookings, with pooled availability across a team and the option to reassign a booking instead of cancelling it.

Booking rules

Set buffer time, minimum notice, how far ahead people can book, flexible durations, custom questions, meeting requests that need manual approval and time zone detection.

Calendar sync

Two-way sync with Google and Microsoft calendars so that existing events block availability.

Embeddable widget and hosted page

Put the booking flow into your own site with the widget, or use a hosted booking page; reminders and cancellation flows are part of both.

API platform

Professional adds the Booking and Availability API and webhooks, and Platform adds the Resource, Project and signed search APIs for marketplaces and large teams.

Reporting

Reports with booking insights are listed from the Professional plan, together with an API request log.
