Redesigning Landing Page—Hera Calendar App
What started as a note-taking app living as a Chrome extension in early 2021, is now a Y Combinator-backed startup taking on the future virtual meetings.

Hera in Albanian also means “time”, which is a nice reference to one of the goals of Hera, to save you time.
