Let AI assistants book your business.

When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude or Google's assistant to book a haircut, a plumber or a physio, it should be able to book you. On your own calendar, with no lead fees.

How it works

Fifteen minutes, once. Nothing new to manage afterwards.

Connect your calendar

Click "Connect with Square" and approve. It can create bookings and read your services and open times. It can't see your money or your other appointments.

Choose what's bookable

Pick the services assistants can book, and whether you confirm each booking yourself first. Most people start with confirm-first.

Assistants can book you

AI assistants can find you, see real open times, and book or request a quote. You also get a small form for your own website that people and browser assistants can both use.

What stays yours

This isn't a marketplace. Nobody sits between you and your customer.

  • Your calendar stays the source of truth. Bookings land in Square like any other.
  • Your customers are yours. No lead fees, no bidding against the shop down the street.
  • You decide: book straight in, or hold every request until you confirm it.
  • A person always says yes. Assistants must confirm with the customer before booking.
  • Switch it off any time from Square.

Why now

People are starting to book this way, and every platform is building for it. Google's AI Mode passed one billion monthly users in May 2026 and is adding booking for local services, with Google phoning salons and trades on a customer's behalf. Yelp takes restaurant bookings inside ChatGPT in Canada. Fresha just put 140,000 salons into ChatGPT and Claude. Every one of those routes the customer through a marketplace that keeps the relationship. Slotrobin puts the booking in your own calendar.

45% of US consumers used AI tools for local business recommendations in the last year, up from 6%. BrightLocal, February 2026.
