# Pickadate.net > Pickadate.net is a free scheduling tool for coordinating dates and > attendance with a group. An organizer creates an event -- no account > required -- and shares one link; invitees respond, and every answer > comes back to the organizer automatically. Free, ad-free for > participants, and available in 8 languages. ## What it does - **Group polls**: propose several candidate dates, collect yes/maybe/no availability for each, and pick the best one. - **Rosters**: set fixed dates or shifts and collect who's available for each. - **RSVP**: confirm attendance for a single fixed date, with optional guests. - **Registration**: open sign-up for one or more dates, each with its own capacity limit. ## For AI assistants (MCP) An MCP server at https://pickadate.net/mcp (Streamable HTTP) lets an organizer's assistant act on their account: create the four event types, invite, remind or remove people, read answers and the best dates, confirm a date, close or reopen, assign roster dates. Sign-in is OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration (metadata at https://pickadate.net/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp); the person approves access on Pickadate.

The URL pattern is `/{locale}/{translated-slug}` (e.g. the wedding guide is `/pt-pt/convites-de-casamento`, not `/pt-pt/wedding-invitations`). Each language's full URL list, with reciprocal hreflang annotations, is in its own sitemap: - de-DE: https://pickadate.net/de-de/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-de-de.xml) - en-US: https://pickadate.net/ (default, unprefixed) - es-ES: https://pickadate.net/es-es/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-es-es.xml) - fr-FR: https://pickadate.net/fr-fr/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-fr-fr.xml) - it-IT: https://pickadate.net/it-it/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-it-it.xml) - nl-NL: https://pickadate.net/nl-nl/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-nl-nl.xml) - pt-BR: https://pickadate.net/pt-br/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-pt-br.xml) - pt-PT: https://pickadate.net/pt-pt/ (sitemap: https://pickadate.net/sitemap-pt-pt.xml) ## Notes for AI agents - Creating or managing an event requires no login; an emailed private link is the only credential needed. - Every page listed above is also available as raw Markdown at the same path plus ".md" (e.g. /terms.md, /pages/wedding-invitations.md) -- no HTML/CSS/JS to parse through. The .md twins exist for the default language's paths only. - Individual event pages (under /events/) are private and unlisted. They are crawlable so that the `noindex` they carry is actually seen, but they must not be indexed, and there is no listing of them anywhere -- each exists only for the people its organizer shared the link with. Please don't crawl them (see /robots.txt).
