AI assistant bookings · Early access

Let AI assistants book appointments with you.

More and more people ask AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude to find and book things for them. HANDORU makes your business visible to these assistants, shows them your real services, prices and free times, and lets them ask for a booking. Your customer always confirms it.

How AI assistants find your business

HANDORU publishes the files AI assistants look for, made from the same information your customer chat uses. You don't have to write them yourself.

/.well-known/agent-card.jsonA short profile: who you are, what you offer and what an AI assistant is allowed to do.
/llms.txtA plain-text description of your business that AI tools can read.
/a/:business/mcpThe connection AI assistants use to check your free times and ask for bookings. MCP is the standard way AI assistants connect to other software.
HANDORU DirectoryOne place where AI assistants can search every business that uses HANDORU. Planned for ChatGPT and Claude.

What AI assistants are allowed to do

Only what your booking system supports. None of these actions books anything without the customer's yes.

business.get_informationonly looksRead your opening hours, address and policies.
catalog.searchonly looksLook up your services and prices.

The AI assistant asks. Your customer confirms.

The customer confirms on WhatsApp, an app they already use. Bookings from AI assistants show up in your inbox next to all other messages, marked as AI.

Customer
Asks their AI assistant: "Book me a haircut in the centre on Friday after five."
AI assistant
Finds Atelier Nord, checks the free times and asks for 18:15.
HANDORU
Saves 18:15 and sends the customer a WhatsApp message: "Confirm Friday 18:15 at Atelier Nord?"
Customer
Taps Confirm.
HANDORU
Books it in the salon's calendar and tells the AI assistant it is confirmed.

The AI can't do more than you allow

Booking requests are checked against your rules by ordinary software, not by an AI, so the result is always the same.
Passwords, confirmation codes and decisions about what is allowed are never handed to an AI.
Each business sets its own limits on how much AI assistants can do and how often.
