Intelligent Booking is the scheduling system behind this site's discovery-call page: live availability computed from working hours, buffers, and blocked dates, timezone conversion, deliberate slot thinning, and automated confirmations with calendar links. The availability shown on /book is this system computing it in production.
A dependable booking flow has to coordinate working hours, busy events, buffers, notice periods, timezones, meeting links, and follow-up communication while staying effortless for the visitor. It also has to have an opinion most tools lack: a calendar that shows every open slot reads as empty, so availability needs deliberate thinning - enough choice to be convenient, not so much that it suggests nobody books.
The system calculates real availability, presents local times, collects the right project context, creates the booking, and sends confirmation details. Calendar links for Google, Outlook, and ICS make the handoff complete. Working hours, buffers, notice windows, and blocked dates come from live configuration rather than code, so an availability change in the admin panel shows up on the page immediately.
Live availability
Computed from working hours, busy events, buffers, notice periods, and blocked dates held in live configuration - an availability change in the admin panel shows up on /book immediately.
Deliberate slot thinning
A calendar that shows every open slot reads as empty, so the flow shows enough choice to be convenient and not so much that it suggests nobody books.
Timezone conversion
Every slot is presented in the visitor's local time; the meeting is created in the right one.
Confirmation and handoff
Collects the project context, creates the booking, and sends confirmation with the meeting link plus Google, Outlook, and ICS calendar links.
Every discovery call Mirastart takes is booked through this flow. It is demonstrable in the most direct way a portfolio allows: the /book page of this site is the product, running in production.
