Find your free calendar slots by messaging Telegram
Say 'I need to schedule a 1-hour meeting with the team' in Telegram, and Notis analyzes your calendar to find free slots. No context-switching to check availability.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.
Action
Find free slots
Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Scheduling meetings often means leaving Telegram to check your calendar, deciding if you're free, and then texting back. This context-switching is exhausting for neurodivergent brains and often gets abandoned halfway.
- Get available time slots without leaving Telegram
- Instant visibility into your schedule eliminates 'let me check and get back to you' delays
- Reduce context-switching and scheduling decision fatigue
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Google Calendar.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When I message you about scheduling a meeting, find my free time slots for the requested duration and report them back in Telegram.'
- 3Select 'New Message Received' as the trigger.
- 4Test by sending 'when can I do a 1-hour call this week?' and Notis will respond with available slots.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis check availability across multiple calendars?
Yes. Notis checks your primary calendar and any shared or work calendars you specify.
Can I exclude certain times (like early mornings or after 5pm)?
Absolutely. Tell Notis your working hours and preferences, and it only suggests times that work for you.
What if I want to include other people's calendars?
Tell Notis which team members to check availability for, and it shows overlapping free time across multiple calendars.
