How it works

Three things WhatsApp booking AI does for you.

Native WhatsApp Business integration

Vocito connects to WhatsApp Business API (Meta). Your existing business number stays. AI listens to incoming messages, responds in 1-2 seconds. Compliant with Meta's WA Business policies + opt-in requirements.

Smart slot offering on your calendar

AI checks real-time availability (Google Calendar, Outlook, Calendly, Treatwell, Salonized, Booksy, Mindbody). Offers 3 best-match slots based on customer preference (time-of-day, day-of-week). Customer picks 1-click — confirmed in calendar.

Pre/post-appointment touches in same thread

Day-before reminder, post-appointment follow-up, recall message at next-due — all in same WhatsApp thread customer already trusts. No separate channels, no notification fatigue. Open rate 95% vs email 22%.

Real numbers

Frequently asked

WhatsApp booking AI — what teams ask

Do I need WhatsApp Business API?
Yes — and Vocito handles the setup. We connect to Meta's official WA Business Platform via 360Dialog (our BSP). Your existing personal/business WhatsApp number can be ported, or we provision new.
Does this work with our existing calendar tool?
Native integrations: Google Calendar, Outlook 365, Calendly, Treatwell, Salonized, Booksy, Mindbody, Phorest, Eversports. For others: REST API + webhooks.
What about group bookings (5+ people)?
AI handles group logistics: how many people, all in one slot or split, deposit per person. For weddings/events: escalates to human for complex coordination.
Can AI handle different services in same conversation?
Yes. 'I want a cut + colour' → AI books appropriate combined slot with right duration. 'And my partner wants a beard trim' → AI checks availability for two people in adjacent slots.
What about WhatsApp pricing / Meta fees?
WhatsApp Business pricing (Meta) is per-conversation. Vocito flat fee covers our platform; Meta fees are pass-through (€0.005-0.05 per conversation depending on type/country). For typical SMB volumes: <€20/mo in Meta fees.
