Appointment booking by phone

Booked straight into your calendar.

Khairo finds a real free slot for the service the caller wants, holds it while they decide, reads it back and books it. No callbacks, no “we'll confirm later”: the booking is final, and the confirmation is on its way.

01Sound familiar?

An appointment taken by phone is easy to get wrong.

  1. Two customers, one slot

    A paper diary and a busy phone lead to double bookings, and the one who arrives second remembers it.

  2. The wrong length

    A one-hour job squeezed into thirty minutes breaks the rest of the day. Every service needs its real duration and the right people and places.

  3. “I'll call you back to confirm”

    Callbacks get forgotten on both sides. A booking that isn't final by the end of the call often doesn't happen.

02How it works

Live the same day, no sales call.

Khairo learns from what you already have. You stay in control of every answer and every rule.

  1. Step 01

    Show Khairo your business

    Drop in your price list or point it at your website, then add your services, how long each takes and your opening hours.

  2. Step 02

    Read its answers

    Before anything goes live, see how Khairo answers your callers' questions, and fix what isn't right in your own words.

  3. Step 03

    Publish your booking line

    Put your Khairo number on your website, Google profile and sign. From then on, every call is answered and booked.

03What Khairo does

Real slots, the right people, a final booking.

04In your calendar

Where it lands in your calendar.

One week at a dental clinic. The highlighted slots are the ones this page is about; the rest is the clinic's own week.

06Questions

Appointment booking: what owners ask

  • Which calendars does Khairo book into?

    Google Calendar, which stays your record and is checked again right before every booking, or the calendar that comes with Khairo.

  • Can two callers book the same slot?

    No. While a caller decides, the slot is held for a few minutes, and nobody else is offered it.

  • Who decides how long each service takes?

    You do. Khairo never assumes a duration: each service has the length, breaks and people or places you set.

  • Is a booking final, or do I confirm it?

    Final. Khairo books only free slots, so there's nothing to approve. If your external calendar refuses the booking at the last moment, Khairo tells the caller you'll confirm by text and alerts you.

  • What about bookings I take myself?

    Put them in the same calendar. Khairo reads it, so it never offers a time that's already taken.

Never miss a booking again.
