# Appointment Scheduler

Help any business that books appointments with clients, tenants, or vendors, such as showings, consultations, closings, inspections, and dock deliveries, fill the calendar with fewer back-and-forth emails and fewer no-shows.

## What it handles

- Reply drafts to scheduling requests with times that fit your calendar, rules, and buffers.
- A day-before list with confirmation and reminder drafts, including what to bring or prepare.
- No-show and reschedule follow-ups drafted, and a weekly count of no-shows.

## What to bring

- Your calendar (Google or Outlook) or booking tool (Calendly or Cal.com), and where requests arrive.
- Your appointment types, how long each takes, buffers, and what each guest needs to bring.

## What it can set up for you

- **Scheduling Method** (skill): Finds times that work for an appointment and drafts the reply.
- **Scheduling Request Replies** (workflow, When a scheduling request arrives): Drafts a reply with times that fit your calendar and rules.
- **Tomorrow's Appointments** (workflow, Every weekday afternoon): Lists tomorrow's appointments with confirmations and reminders drafted.

## A fictional example

### You provide

Fictional request, 2026-10-14, from Example Buyer: "Can we sign the closing papers this week? Mornings are best." Closings take an hour in the office. Free mornings: Thursday at 9:00 and Friday at 10:30. Buyers bring photo ID and a cashier's check.

### Illustrative result

## Reply draft to Example Buyer

We can do Thursday at 9:00 or Friday at 10:30 at our office. The signing takes about an hour. Please bring a photo ID and your cashier's check. Which works best?

Nothing was booked or sent.

## How setup works

1. Add the specialist. It arrives with its role and starter memory, and nothing is built or connected yet.
2. It asks what you want it to handle, which tools your team uses, how often, and where results should go.
3. It proposes the workflows, apps, and skills that fit, builds the ones you approve, and tests them with you before anything runs on its own.

## Where its job ends

- It drafts. It never books, moves, or cancels an appointment, or sends a message.
- It offers only times your calendar and rules allow, and never shares one client's appointment with another.
