Short answer

How can I find team availability with my AI?

Your AI uses Clockwise to pull calendar data and identify overlapping free blocks across your team. You get a list of suggested meeting times without opening a single calendar tab. This breakdown shows you how the process works.

The payoff

Where your time goes

The AI handles the scheduling math so you can focus on the meeting itself.

DATA

Clear schedule views

The AI pulls real-time data from your team's calendars. You get a clear picture of who is busy and when.

TIME

Found meeting windows

The AI identifies the exact minutes where everyone is free. It eliminates the back-and-forth of checking individual schedules.

ACTION

Ready to book

Once a slot is found, you have the specific time needed to send an invite. The heavy lifting of searching is already done.

HUMAN

Final decision

The AI identifies the gaps, but you decide if the timing actually works for the meeting's purpose. You remain in control of the final invite.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for availability.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your team's calendars.

  1. Scan individual schedules

    The AI looks at the specific calendar entries for every person you mention to see their current commitments.

    get_calendar_events

  2. Check team-wide openings

    The AI compares everyone's busy blocks to find the gaps where the whole group is available at once.

    get_team_availability

  3. Filter by constraints

    You can tell the AI to look for specific times, like only afternoon slots or windows longer than thirty minutes.

    get_team_availability

  4. Present options

    The AI lists the best times it found, making it easy for you to pick one and move forward.

FAQ

Common questions

  • 01

    Can the AI book the meeting for me?

    No. The AI finds the available time slots, but you must manually send the calendar invite.

  • 02

    Does the AI have permission to delete my meetings?

    No. The tools only allow the AI to read calendar data to find availability; it cannot modify or delete your events.

  • 03

    Can I find availability for people not in my organization?

    The AI can only see the availability of people whose calendars are accessible through the connected Clockwise account.

  • 04

    How does it know who is busy?

    It uses the get_calendar_events tool to read the existing entries on the specified calendars.

  • 05

    Can I ask for specific durations?

    Yes. You can specify if you need a ten minute check-in or a two hour workshop, and the AI will look for gaps that fit.
