Baïkal

The iCloud, Google Contacts and Fruux alternative

From $5 / month · billed monthly

Baïkal is a CalDAV and CardDAV server: one private address that syncs your calendars and contacts to the phone, laptop, and tablet apps you already use. It is an alternative to iCloud and Google Contacts built on the same open standards, so Apple Calendar, Thunderbird, and DAVx5 connect natively with no bridge or plugin. Your address book is a map of everyone you know, and running it on your own infrastructure keeps that map private.
