What You Need Before You Start

To make this work, you’ll need a few things:

  • A GoHighLevel account with Voice AI enabled

  • Access to premium workflow actions

  • An appointment calendar set up inside GHL

  • Basic knowledge of workflows and triggers

Step-by-Step Setup for Appointment Booking with Voice AI

1. Enable Voice AI in Your Sub-account

Head to your GHL sub-account settings:

  • Click on Settings

  • Select Conversation AI

  • Enable Auto-Pilot Mode so the bot can reply without waiting for manual action

Tip: Use Suggestive Mode first to test responses before going fully automated.

2. Train Your AI Agent

Go to Bot Training and add:

  • Common Q&A about booking

  • Phrases like “I want to book an appointment,” “Can I schedule a call,” etc.

  • Website or calendar links for more context

This helps your AI understand what users are asking.

3. Create a Calendar in GHL

If you haven’t already:

  • Navigate to Calendars

  • Set up a new calendar with time slots

  • Make sure it’s connected to your workflow for booking

You’ll use this in the workflow later.

4. Set Up Your Workflow

Go to Automation > Workflows and create a new one:

  • Trigger: Contact replies or inbound call (Voice AI)

  • Action 1: Use “If/Else” to check if the contact wants to book

  • Action 2: Use Premium Action to send a booking link or webhook to create the booking

  • Action 3: Send a confirmation via SMS or email

You can also add tags and notes for follow-up.

5. Use Webhooks or Booking Links

Since the AI can’t click buttons, you’ll use:

  • Direct calendar links sent via SMS

  • Or use webhooks to auto-book based on intent

Example: “If the contact says ‘Yes, I’m free Monday at 10,’ the bot can pass that to a webhook and auto-book the slot.”

Practical Example

Let’s say your AI bot gets a call from John. He says:

“Hi, I want to book a call with someone next week.”

Your AI replies:

“Great! Would Monday or Tuesday morning work for you?”

John says Monday. The bot confirms and triggers the workflow to send a booking link for Monday’s slot or auto-books it using a webhook.
