# Booking Overview

> Let people schedule meetings with you directly from chat, voice, email, or a public page

## What is Booking?

Booking is Clarky's built-in scheduling system. Customers can pick a time on a public booking page, get a confirmation email with a Google Meet link, and add the meeting to their calendar — all without you lifting a finger. Your AI assistant can also offer time slots and complete bookings inside chat, voice calls, SMS, and email conversations.

  **Plan availability:** Available on all plans. See [Plans & Billing](/features/settings/plans).

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Clarky (default)">
    The built-in scheduler. Includes Google Calendar sync, native event types, multi-host support, and full AI agent integration. Recommended for most workspaces.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Calendly">
    Connect your existing Calendly account with a Personal Access Token. Your AI assistant will surface your Calendly event types in chat and email.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Cal.com">
    Connect your Cal.com account using your Cal link (for example, `yourname/30min`). Your AI assistant will offer Cal.com event types to invitees.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

<Note>
  You can switch providers at any time from **Booking > Settings**. Switching changes which event types your AI assistant offers.
</Note>

## Where Booking Happens

Customers can book a meeting from any of these entry points:

* **Public booking page** at `/b/[event-slug]` — share the link anywhere
* **Embedded widget** on your website
* **Chat** — the AI offers a date and time picker inline
* **Voice calls** — the AI walks the caller through booking conversationally
* **SMS** — the AI sends a booking link with available times
* **Email** — the AI includes a booking link in its reply
