Why connect it

Make Acuity work harder with an AI agent

Appointment businesses live and die by a full book, and the phone is where a surprising share of it still comes from. Trouble is, the busier your columns get, the less anyone can answer. Connect Acuity and Desky takes over the ringing — matching callers to the right appointment type, quoting genuine openings, and writing the booking into Acuity in real time.

Calls answered while you’re with clients

The hours you’re fully booked are exactly when the phone rings most. Desky picks up so a busy day never costs you the next one.

Knows your appointment types

A 30-minute consult and a 90-minute session aren’t interchangeable. Desky books the type the caller actually needs, at its proper length.

Only offers what’s truly open

Availability comes live from Acuity at the moment of the call — no double-bookings, no ‘sorry, that slot just went’ emails.

Rebooks the ones who drift

Cancellation calls end with a new time on the books wherever possible, turning would-be gaps into kept appointments.

Takes bookings out of hours

People plan their appointments after work. Desky is there at 9pm on a Tuesday when they finally get around to ringing.

A connection you control

Acuity links up through its secure authorisation flow; credentials are encrypted and the connection can be revoked in one click.

The payoff

Benefits of using AI for Acuity

What changes for an appointment-based business once Acuity and the phone work as one.

Fuller columns without more admin

Bookings arrive by phone all day and slot straight into Acuity — nobody transcribes, nobody juggles.

Cancellations hurt less

When a rebooking is offered on the cancellation call itself, a lost slot often becomes a moved one.

Clients feel looked after

An instant answer and an accurate booking beats a voicemail box every single time — and clients remember it.

You stay in your zone of genius

You do the appointments; Desky does the appointment-making. That’s the whole division of labour.
