Most appointment-driven businesses lose customers between the question and the booking — by the time a human picks up, the customer has gone elsewhere. Convia's appointment booking takes the entire flow inside the conversation: availability check, buffer time, deposit if needed, confirmation, reminder. The customer never leaves the chat, and you never spend a minute on the diary.

Features

What you get when you turn this on

Real-time availability

Convia checks your Google Calendar (or any calendar via webhook) and offers slots that are actually free, with the right buffer between appointments.

Service-aware durations

Different services need different durations — a quick consult vs a 3-hour treatment. Convia knows the duration per service and blocks the right amount of time.

Confirmations and reminders

Automatic confirmation email or message after booking, plus an opt-in reminder the night before — across web, WhatsApp, or Instagram.

Reschedule and cancel in chat

Customers reschedule or cancel right inside the conversation. Convia updates your calendar instantly and frees the slot for the next request.

Working hours and time off

Configure working hours per day, block holidays and time-off, and set a buffer before / after each booking. The agent respects all of it.

Owner notifications

Get an email or in-app notification on every booking. Multi-team setups can route notifications per provider or per location.

How it works

From signup to a live agent

You set your appointment configuration: working hours, services with durations, buffer time, who's assigned to what. Connect a Google Calendar or hook up your scheduling tool via webhook.

A customer asks about a booking in chat. Convia checks real availability, offers two or three slot options, and confirms. The booking is written to your calendar instantly.

Convia sends an automated confirmation immediately and an opt-in reminder the night before — over the same channel the booking happened on (web, Instagram, WhatsApp).

If the customer needs to reschedule or cancel, they do it in chat. The slot frees up, the customer gets the update, and your diary stays clean.
