Sends automatic reminders before a booked appointment so customers show up, with an easy way to reschedule. Reduces no-shows by reaching customers on a channel they actually read before the appointment.

How it works

How it works

1

Schedule the reminder

When an appointment is booked, Defuser queues a reminder for a set time before the slot.

2

Send the nudge

A Utility template goes out with the date, time, and location, plus options to confirm or reschedule.

3

Handle the response

Confirmations are logged; reschedule requests trigger a re-booking flow in the same chat.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance can reminders be sent?

You control the timing in the flow — typically 24 hours and again 1 hour before. You can stack multiple reminders for high-value appointments.

Can customers reschedule from the reminder?

Yes. The reminder can include a reschedule option that opens a re-booking flow, so customers move their slot instead of simply not showing up.

Big-ticket vehicle sales need a human touch — where does automation fit?

Automation wins the speed-to-lead battle: it responds instantly, qualifies the enquiry, and books the test drive, then hands a ready buyer to your salesperson. On the service side it removes phone tag entirely. The human relationship stays; the slow admin around it goes.
