Who SnapCal is for
If you've ever screenshot something and then forgotten about it.
Busy parents
School flyers, birthday invites, sports schedules. Snap the paper, forward, calendar entry without typing a word.
Travelers
Flight confirmations, hotel bookings, conference schedules. Forward the email screenshot, get a clean entry on your travel calendar.
Event organizers
Bulk-capture posters and lineups. Stop manually transcribing each event into your work calendar.
Privacy by architecture
Not by marketing copy — by how the system is built.
Local AI on our EU server
Classification runs on a small Llama 3.2 model on our Frankfurt VPS. Your forwarded content is never sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google AI, or any third-party LLM provider.
OCR also stays local
Tesseract reads every screenshot on the same server. The OCR engine understands English, Lithuanian and German posters out of the box.
Date hints stop hallucination
A regex layer pre-extracts candidate dates and times (German "UHR", Lithuanian "val", ordinals like "25th March"). The AI picks from real candidates rather than guessing.
Tenant isolation by construction
Every database query is scoped by your Telegram user ID. Cross-tenant access is structurally impossible, not "policy-enforced."
RFC 5545 calendar export
Real iCalendar files, not hacks. Works with Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, Fantastical, Thunderbird — every major app.
GDPR rights in the bot
/export_data for an instant ZIP of everything we hold. /delete_account DELETE to wipe it permanently. No support-ticket gauntlet.
