Calendly and Telegram, ready to switch on
Everyone who books gets a confirmation and reminders in Telegram, a change or a cancellation sends an update, and your team sees tomorrow's meetings in one evening message. You paste two keys in your account and it runs, in about ten minutes.
No setup fee, cancel any month, and a person on live chat if a key doesn't work.

The details you would normally get after a sales call. Here they are up front.

| Buttons instead of a reply | Calendly to Telegram | With every reminder | Confirm and cancel are buttons, and cancelling frees the slot in Calendly straight away |
| Two reminders | Calendly to Telegram | A day before, then an hour before | The second is skipped for a meeting that has already been called off |
| Reschedules edit the message | Calendly to Telegram | Within seconds | The old time is replaced instead of repeated, so nobody scrolls up to the wrong one |
| Tomorrow, for the team | Calendly to Telegram | Daily at 18:00, your time zone | The next day's meetings in the group you choose |

Before you decide
Do the reminders go to the client or to us?
Both, and you decide which is which. Confirmations and reminders go to the person who booked, while the daily list and the awkward cases go to the team chat.
Can we change the times?
Yes. A day before and two hours before is where we start. Say in the chat that you want three hours, or one, and we change it. Small edits like that cost nothing.
How does the person who books end up in Telegram?
They open your bot once and tap Start, which is the rule Telegram sets for everybody. Put the bot link on the booking confirmation page and most people do it without being asked twice.
Anything to know about Calendly?
The phone number comes from your booking form, so add the phone question and make it required if messages should reach the people who book.
Anything to know about Telegram?
A bot can't read messages sent before it was added to a chat, so old conversations stay where they are.
What if mine is a bit different?
Tell us what should go where in plain words. Small changes to the rules above are usually free; bigger ones we price the same day and build into the same account.
