This tool takes any information you provide, whether it's screenshots, photos, PDFs or paragraphs of text, and converts it into perfectly formatted events for your preferred calendar. It's a smart time-saver and now, it has a new feature that allows users to create custom collections of dates to share with anyone, enabling them to add the included information into their own agenda with just a couple of clicks.\n\nUsing Agenda Hero is incredibly easy. You simply sign in using your Google account or any other email address, then click on \"Make a new calendar\". You can type or paste in event info directly or drop in a PDF, image, or screenshot to have the event details automatically extracted and formatted. Once your events are added, you can edit or fine-tune them as needed. The calendar is ready to be shared, and you can customize its style and appearance as well.\n\nSharing a calendar is the real magic of Agenda Hero. With a free plan, users can share with up to two others, while the Plus plan allows for 250 shares and even creates public links for easier use. It's a web-based tool that works in any browser and on any device, and no personal calendar data is used for AI training or advertising. Agenda Hero is a simple, powerful and easy-to-use tool that can significantly simplify sharing your schedule with others.",
