Business Connector for Google Calendar and Outlook
Let customers book you online, or by phone with the receptionist, without double-booking: only your free times are offered, and the booking lands in your calendar.
What it does for you
Free times only
Busy and free times are checked so a customer is only offered a slot you really have. The details of your other events are not read.
Bookings land in your calendar
Bookings made through your website or receptionist are added, moved or cancelled in the calendar you choose.
Google or Microsoft
Works with Google Calendar or a Microsoft Outlook calendar.
What it can see, and what it never will.
Each part is requested only when you switch that feature on.
With your permission
- When you are busy or free
- The list of your calendars, so you can pick one
- Events the booking feature created
Never
- The titles, notes or guests of your other events, for booking
- Your email
- Selling or sharing your schedule
For booking and the phone receptionist, only open times are passed to Anthropic's Claude, never an event's title, details or attendees. The meeting notetaker, if you switch it on, is different: it records the meetings it joins, and their titles and transcripts are summarised with Claude.
Switch Google Calendar and Outlook off whenever you like. The stored access is deleted the moment you do.
The exact permissions
For reviewers and the curious: the permissions requested, the data each one reaches, and why.
| Permission | Data reached | Why |
|---|---|---|
calendar.freebusy, calendar.events.owned, calendar.calendarlist.readonly | Busy and free times; the list of calendars; events the Service created. | To offer only free times, let you pick a calendar, and add, move or remove the bookings it made. |
calendar.events.readonly (only for the meeting notetaker, where switched on) | The calendar's events, synced by our notetaker provider Recall.ai; we receive each meeting's title, time, link and attendees. | To send a notetaker to the meetings your settings select and give you the notes. Transcripts go to Anthropic's Claude to write the summary. |
Microsoft: User.Read, Calendars.ReadWrite or Calendars.Read, offline_access | Your Microsoft account name and calendar events. | The same booking and notetaker features for an Outlook calendar. |
