Use case · Reception

Book appointments 24/7 — over voice, no link required.

Sophie books appointments directly to your calendar during the call. Respects your availability rules, buffer times, time zones. No SMS link, no "send me a Calendly" — appointment confirmed before they hang up.

The problem

The booking step is where most service-business calls go to die.

60% never call back. The friction kills the conversion.

Caller asks for an appointment. Receptionist puts them on hold to "check the calendar." Comes back with three options. Caller can\'t commit; says "let me check and call back." 60% never call back. The friction kills the conversion.

  • Hold-while-checking kills bookings
    Putting a caller on hold to check the calendar drops conversion by 30–40%.
  • After-hours bookings impossible
    When the office is closed, no one can book — even if the caller is ready to commit.
  • Manual booking creates conflicts
    Receptionist double-books or wrong-time-zones. Customer walks in to a confused front desk.
  • "Call back" rarely happens
    "Let me call you back to confirm" leaks 60%+ of would-be bookings.
