# The Scheduling Agent for Slack is live: ask about your calendar, book, and reschedule in one place The Cronofy Scheduling Agent for Slack is live. Schedule meetings, ask what's on your calendar, reschedule, and add or remove attendees, all from inside Slack. Real-time availability across Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange, and Apple calendars. The Cronofy Scheduling Agent for Slack is live. Schedule new meetings, ask what's on your calendar, move existing meetings, and pull people on or off the invite. All from inside Slack, all grounded in real-time availability. If your team lives in Slack, the friction of scheduling and managing meetings still drags you out of it. Open the calendar to check what's on. Hunt for availability. Copy-paste suggestions. Switch back to move a meeting that no longer works. Switch again to add the person you forgot. The Cronofy Scheduling Agent for Slack removes that round trip. You can @mention it to set up a meeting. You can also ask it what's on your calendar tomorrow, move an existing meeting, or add someone who got missed off the invite. All inside Slack. It's live now in the Slack App Directory. [Add to Slack](https://app.cronofy.com/sign_up/slack) Scheduling a meeting For a new meeting, three steps, all inside Slack. **Ask. **In any channel or DM, @mention the Scheduling Agent along with the people you want to meet. Write it the way you'd ask a colleague: "find us 30 minutes next week for the pricing review." **Review. **The agent checks connected calendars for every participant in real time, accounts for time zones and working hours, and replies in the thread with options. **Confirm. **Pick a time. Calendar invitations are sent automatically with the conferencing link and the right time zone for each invitee. No new UI to learn. No separate app to open. The conversation where the meeting got proposed is the same conversation where it gets booked. ![Cronofy Scheduling Agent for Slack: ask, pick, done]() What it can actually do Scheduling a new meeting is the headline use case, but the agent does more than that. It can act on your calendar in four ways. **Schedule. **Find a time that works for everyone and send the invites. Single, multi-person, or panel meetings, across time zones. **Look up. **Ask what's on your calendar. "What do I have on Thursday?" "When am I next meeting Sarah?" "What's my next meeting?" The agent reads your calendar and answers in the thread, with the relative status of each event so you can see at a glance what's already started, what's coming up, and how soon. **Reschedule. **Tell the agent to move a meeting. It proposes new times that work across all the existing attendees' calendars, sends updated invitations, and clears the old slot. **Add or remove attendees. **Pull someone onto an existing meeting, or take them off. The invite updates automatically. No copying details into a new event, no asking the original organizer to do it. That last one matters more than it sounds. Forgetting an attendee is one of the most common reasons a meeting needs a second pass. Fixing it without leaving Slack saves the small but constant tax of switching to your calendar app to edit an event. Why this isn't another AI scheduler Most AI scheduling tools fall into one of two camps. Either they're a standalone product that asks you to context-switch into a different surface, or they're an LLM wrapper that produces confident-sounding suggestions without actually knowing whether the times work. The Slack Scheduling Agent sits on top of Cronofy's temporal grid. That means the times it proposes, the calendar lookups it answers, and the rescheduling it carries out are all grounded in real availability data, pulled live from connected Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange, and Apple calendars. Time zones, working hours, and conflicts are handled at the infrastructure layer, not guessed at by a model. The AI part interprets what you're asking for. The grid makes sure the answer is correct. Where it earns its keep Two-person internal meetings are the easy case. The agent is built for the harder ones. **Panel and multi-person meetings. **@mention four people across three time zones and get a shortlist back in seconds. No mental arithmetic. **External participants. **Anyone not in your Slack workspace can self-schedule via a personalized link based on real-time availability. This is the work that quietly eats hours across a team every week. The kind nobody puts on a roadmap because it's "just admin," but which adds up to real lost time. ![Multi-person, multi-timezone scheduling in Slack]() Setup Install from the Slack App Directory. An administrator connects the relevant calendar service. Once that's done, anyone on the team can start scheduling, asking about their calendar, or moving meetings around. There is no training step. For enterprise deployments, scheduling templates and organizational configurations are available. ![Up and running in minutes: installing the Cronofy Scheduling Agent for Slack]() A note on the AI The agent uses AI to interpret natural-language requests. Suggestions should be reviewed before you confirm, and that goes for rescheduling and attendee changes as well as new bookings. Calendar data is processed in Cronofy's own data centers, not passed through third-party AI services. Cronofy is ISO 27001, ISO 27018, and ISO 27701 certified and SOC 2 attested, with full support for GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. That matters because the calendar is one of the most sensitive datasets in any organization. Where it gets processed, and who can see it, is not a detail to wave through. Try it If you spend any meaningful portion of your week coordinating meetings inside Slack, this is built for you. The first booking, the first "what's on my calendar today," or the first reschedule will tell you whether it sticks. [Add to Slack](https://app.cronofy.com/sign_up/slack)
