Automated Barbershop Booking System with AI Integration

This project showcases a fully automated barbershop scheduling engine built with Make.com, OpenAI, and Google Calendar. The system replaces manual booking with a high-performance, real-time automation pipeline designed for speed, reliability, and zero-friction customer experience.

Understands natural-language booking requests (date, time, barber preference, service type).

Validates availability in real time across multiple Google Calendars.

Routes requests intelligently using AI date parsers and logic-based branching.

Finds the next available slot automatically when a requested time is unavailable.

Prevents double-booking through multi-calendar conflict checks.

Sends instant confirmation through automated webhook callbacks.

Maintains full audit logs for debugging and performance tracking.

Make.com: Core automation engine (routers, iterators, error handling, scheduling logic).

OpenAI (GPT): Date interpretation, natural language understanding, fallback logic.

Google Calendar: Real-time availability sync for multiple barbers.

Webhooks: Fast communication back to the calling platform (chatbot, voice agent, or custom app).

This system delivers:

Scalable logic for any service business (clinics, salons, travel agents, workshops)

It’s currently used as part of my AI Receptionist solution deployed for real clients.
