Invitations with unlimited flexibility
Your schedule, your way.
Invite people to schedule an appointment, a coffee meetup, an IPS session, a photo shoot, or whatever you'd like! You configure your availability and the options and your client can select a date and time that works for them. Your invitations will even cross-check your Google Calendar to make sure everything jives!
Specify your availability
Time slots. Specify what days of the week (and when) you're available. Set recurring availability or one-off, whatever works best for you!
Booking window. Choose when an invitee can pick a date - between a specific window, over a rolling number of days or indefinitely into the future.
Mandatory notice. Require that your invitee give you a specific amount of notice for bookings, so you have enough time to prepare.


Configure your options
Invitation type. Choose from a 1-on-1 invitation (great for meetings) or a group invitation (great for workshops) and choose how many people can attend.
Event increments. Set the frequency and granularity of available time slots for your invitees to choose from - 15, 30 or 60 minutes.
Events per day. Specify how many of this type of date you'd like to have scheduled per day.
Buffer. Specify how much time (if any) you'd like to have left aside in your schedule before each event. This is useful for travel or prep!
Set up the date details
Auto approval. Set the date to be automatically approved and added to your calendar once an invitee chooses a date.
Manual approval. Set the date to be manually approved if you'd like to review it first before it is added to your calendar.
Date details. Set the length, and specify the date name, address and notes for the date that is created from an invitation.


Configure the flow
Questionnaire. Add a questionnaire to collect details from your invitees specific to the date and event they book.
Embed. Share the link with your clients, send an email or embed it on your site. How you share your invitation is up to you!
Thank you and welcome message. Customize the welcome greeting and thank you message for your invitation and give a more guided, customized experienced.
...and use invitations for your growing team!
Use invitations for your growing team! If you're running a multi-photographer studio, you can let your clients choose who they book. If you have an assistant or a second shooter, you can make sure that the invitation checks everyone's availability first.
