Availability & Scheduling

Control exactly when clients can book you — weekly hours, calendars, time zones, buffers, and locations.

  • Connect your calendar

    Link Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, or a read-only iCal feed so Calso hides the hours you're already busy and writes every new booking onto the calendar you actually live in.

  • Set your weekly availability hours

    Set the hours you can be booked on each weekday, split a day into a morning and an afternoon block, and understand the one time zone every one of those hours is read in.

  • Set buffers, minimum notice, and how far ahead clients can book

    Use the three Scheduling Defaults on the Availability page to put a gap between sessions, stop last-minute bookings, and close off the far future — and see how they land on Calso's 15-minute grid of start times.

  • Choose which calendars block your times and which one receives bookings

    Every calendar you connect to Calso carries two separate settings — whether it hides your busy hours from your booking page, and whether new sessions get written onto it. Here's how to set each one and what changes when you move them.

  • Give one event type its own hours and scheduling rules

    Use an event type's Availability tab to give it custom weekly hours, restrict it to specific dates, override your buffer and notice, and cap how many can be booked in a day or a week.

  • Set where a session happens

    Every event type carries one location — a video room, a phone call, a venue you meet at, or the client's own front door. Here's what each choice needs connected first, what the client sees, and where the address ends up.

  • Create a venue with directions and access details

    Save an in-person location once — address, map, parking and arrival notes, accessibility details, and photos — and every event type you attach it to sends those directions to clients automatically.

  • Use Smart Scheduling to keep your days compact

    Turn on Smart Scheduling so your booking page steers clients toward times next to the sessions you already have — and learn the three conditions a day has to meet before recommended times appear.
