Book appointments automatically and never double-book a client again

The system checks your calendar, books available slots, emails confirmations, and sends reminders before every appointment.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each reminder time 24 hour and 1 hour before.

The problem it solves

Every booking request means checking your calendar by hand, replying to confirm, and hoping you do not double-book someone. Then you still have to remember to send a reminder so people actually show up.

Who it fits

Service-based businesses and consultants who take appointment requests and want to stop managing them manually.

How it works

  1. A booking request comes in with a name, email, date, and time
  2. The system checks your Google Calendar for conflicts at that time
  3. If the slot is open, it creates the event and includes the attendee
  4. A confirmation email goes out immediately with the appointment details
  5. Reminder emails are sent automatically 24 hours and 1 hour before the appointment
What you get

Appointments booked with zero double-bookings

Available slots get booked straight into your calendar, confirmations go out automatically, and every client gets a reminder before they arrive.

What you get

A booked calendar event, a confirmation email, and automatic reminders, or a list of alternative times if the slot is taken.

What you need

A Google Calendar account and a Gmail account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
