Is Acuity the same thing as Squarespace Scheduling?

Acuity was acquired by Squarespace in 2019. For several years, we offered Squarespace Scheduling, a rebranded version of Acuity for new customers using Squarespace accounts. At the same time, we continued to support our many loyal customers through the Acuity brand. Now, we’re uniting the scheduling experience under the Acuity name for everyone. If you’ve been using Squarespace Scheduling, you’ll find everything works exactly the same, even if the name is different. Learn what Acuity Scheduling does and how it’s related to Squarespace.
