Your team spends too much time answering the same questions:

  • “Do you have anything available tomorrow?”

  • “Can I move my appointment to next week?”

  • “What’s your cancellation policy?”

  • “I need to book for two people — can you help?”


Ferdinand automates all of it, across every channel, with real-time access to your scheduling tools.


What Ferdinand Automates

✔ New Appointment Bookings

Customers can request appointments naturally:

“I want something Friday after 2pm.”

Ferdinand checks availability, offers options, handles deposits (if needed), and books the appointment instantly.


✔ Rescheduling & Availability Checks

No more back-and-forth.

Customers say:

“Can I move my appointment to next Thursday?”

Ferdinand:

  • Checks the calendar

  • Presents open slots

  • Updates the booking

  • Sends a confirmation


✔ Cancellations & Policy Enforcement

Ferdinand knows and enforces your rules automatically — including:

  • Cancellation windows

  • Fees or deposits

  • No-show limits

  • Staff-specific availability

No employee intervention required.


✔ Multi-Location & Multi-Staff Support

Perfect for businesses with:

  • Multiple offices or service areas

  • Different appointment durations


Ferdinand knows who can take what appointment and where.


✔ Automated Reminders & Confirmations

Reduce no-shows with:

  • SMS reminders

  • Email reminders

  • Confirmations

  • Follow-up instructions


All fully automated, triggered by rules you control.


✔ Complex Scheduling Logic

Ferdinand handles workflows that typical chatbots can’t:

  • Adding multiple services to one appointment

  • “Book two appointments back to back”

  • “I want the same provider as last time”

  • “Book for me and my child”

  • Variable appointment lengths

  • Prep-time or cleanup-time gaps


Ferdinand respects your business logic, not a generic template.
