One-tap reminders, and freed-up slots get refilled
Appointment-based businesses: pet groomers, centers, practices
Every no-show leaves you two empty hours on the table, and the dog waiting on the list has gone somewhere else in the meantime. Phoning everyone the day before is more than you can handle, with your hands in the fur and the dryer running. And when someone cancels at the last minute, finding a dog that fits that empty gap means a round of phone calls.
What you check
Il posto liberato va solo a chi ci sta. Il sistema guarda quanto dura il servizio, non solo l'ora.
Chi non risponde lo chiami tu. La sera non partono altri messaggi.
Si usa l'agenda che avete già. Non c'è una seconda agenda da tenere.

Frequently asked questions
Does it work with my calendar?
With Google Calendar and Outlook the connection is direct. With industry-specific booking software we need to check case by case whether they let us read and write appointments.
How much do the WhatsApp messages cost?
Reminders go out from a template approved by Meta and have a per-message cost. If the message doesn't get through, an SMS goes out.
What about people who don't reply?
They get no more messages that evening. At 6:00 PM you find the list of those who haven't replied, for you to call.
How does it know whether a dog fits in the free slot?
Each service has its own duration. The freed-up slot is offered only to those on the list with a service that fits, one at a time and in order.
