Connect your Calendly account to let qualified leads book appointments directly through your WhatsApp conversations. The AI will automatically check your availability and handle the booking process.

​
How It Works

When leads reach a Book Meeting node in your conversation funnel:
  1. AI offers available times from your Calendly calendar
  2. Lead selects preferred time via WhatsApp
  3. Meeting is booked automatically
  4. Both parties receive confirmation
No more back-and-forth scheduling messages - everything happens seamlessly in the conversation.

​
Connecting Your Account

​
Requirements

  • Calendly Premium or higher plan

Connection Steps

  2. Click “Connect Calendly Account”
