AI help with tee times and bookings
AI does not replace your tee sheet. It handles the back and forth around it: changes, cancellations, group requests and people hoping a slot opens up. That frees the pro shop from texting and phone tag, while the tee sheet stays the one record of who is playing when.
Talk through your course with the person who builds it
A free 30-minute call. You leave knowing which part of your golf course to hand to AI first, what we would build, and roughly how long it takes.
The messy parts of tee times
A booking is easy. The trouble is everything after it: a foursome becomes a threesome, rain moves a league, someone wants to switch to the back nine at the last minute.
Each change is a small message that someone has to read and act on.
Waitlists and groups
When a Saturday slot cancels, AI can tell the people who asked about it, in order, and let a staff member confirm the one who answers first.
For groups of eight or more, it can gather headcount, format and food needs before a person calls back.
Say the rules the same way every time
Cart rules, cancellation windows, guest limits and twilight cutoffs cause arguments at the counter. Write them once in plain words and have the assistant quote them exactly. Golfers accept a rule more easily when it reads the same by text, by phone and on your site.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
A golfer replies to a reminder text that they cannot make it. The slot is flagged for the tee sheet and the waitlist is notified.
A birthday group of ten wants to play together. The assistant gathers names, carts and lunch needs so the pro starts with a full picture.
A rainout moves a league night. Everyone on the roster gets the new date and replies are tallied.
The rules that apply, in their own words
“unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce, are hereby declared unlawful.”
“other than a call made for emergency purposes or made with the prior express consent of the called party”

Questions
Will it work with my tee sheet software?
It depends on what that software allows. We check on the first call, and tell you if the connection is not possible.
Who has the final say on a booking?
A person on your staff. The AI prepares and suggests.
