Core Features
Calendar & Appointment Sync
Turn your chat widget into an active sales assistant. By connecting your corporate calendars, Sentrup books qualified meetings, qualifies leads, and prevents schedule conflicts automatically.
Connecting Calendar Providers
Sentrup integrates natively with popular scheduling hosts using OAuth 2.0. To connect your calendar:
- Navigate to the **Integrations** tab in your Sentrup Admin Dashboard.
- Click **Connect Google Calendar** or **Connect Microsoft Outlook**.
- Authenticate and grant the required calendar read/write scopes.
Once linked, the scheduling engine continuously checks for existing events on selected calendars to block double-bookings.
Configuring Availability & Rules
Define how the AI handles appointment routing:
- Weekly Availability: Specify active operating hours (e.g., Mon-Fri, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM).
- Buffer Times: Reserve preparation gaps between consecutive appointments (e.g., 15-minute buffers).
- Booking Form Questions: Specify what details the AI must gather before securing the slot (e.g., email, business URL, company size).
Automated Booking Flow in Chat
When a visitor expresses scheduling intent (e.g., *"I want to book a demo"*), the AI assistant:
- Checks your real-time availability using a calendar sync check.
- Displays upcoming open slots directly within the chat widget viewport.
- Guides the visitor to click and select a time slot.
- Collects contact info, registers the event on your linked calendar, and sends email confirmations to both parties.
