Appointment Booking Chatbot Starter Kit
Let customers book through a natural conversation instead of a form or a phone call. The agent reads your connected Google Calendar or Cal.com, offers a slot it can actually see, and writes the confirmed appointment back where your team already looks. Changes to an existing booking reach a person with the whole thread rather than being made automatically.
What's Included
Everything you need to get started, pre-configured and ready to customize.
- Live availability read from your connected calendar before anything is promised
- Confirmed bookings written back as calendar events with the visitor's details
- Booking confirmation summarised in the chat
- Questions about your services, hours and policies answered from your content
- Reschedule and cancellation requests captured and handed to your team
- Answers in 95+ languages, on your website and on WhatsApp

How to Customize
Adapt this template to your business in four simple steps.
Describe Your Services
Add what you offer, how long each thing takes, what it costs, and who it is for. The agent answers from this material, so a visitor can work out what to book before booking it.
Connect Your Calendar
Link Google Calendar or Cal.com. The agent reads your free slots before promising anything and writes the confirmed booking back as an event.
Decide What Needs a Person
Reschedules, cancellations and anything unusual are captured and handed to your team with the full thread rather than acted on automatically. Set who receives them.
Customize the Conversation
Edit the greeting, the confirmation wording, and the agent's tone, and add any pre-appointment instructions specific to your business.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which calendar systems does the bot integrate with?
- Google Calendar and Cal.com. Those are the two the booking tool speaks to today: it reads your free slots and writes the confirmed appointment back. There is no Outlook or Calendly integration, so teams on those either move the booking calendar to one of the supported two or let the agent capture the request for a person to enter.
- Can customers reschedule or cancel through the bot?
- They can ask, and the request reaches your team with the full conversation attached, but the agent does not move or delete the event itself. Booking is the automated half; changing an existing appointment stays a human decision, which is usually what you want when a slot is about to be freed.
- Does it handle different services with different durations?
- It answers questions about them from your own content, so a visitor can tell a 30-minute consultation from a two-hour session before booking. What does not exist is a services screen with per-service durations and providers that filters the slots automatically; the calendar's free time is what the agent offers.
- Does it send appointment reminders?
- Only the one the calendar invite carries, the day before, and only when the visitor leaves an email address with the booking. There is no reminder scheduler of our own yet. Businesses that need a reliable nudge send an approved WhatsApp template on the morning of the appointment.
