Cotlet runs 11 Salonist tools hosted, over MCP for agents and REST for scripts, in your own Salonist login on any plan. Your AI agent books appointments from messages, finds free slots, covers a therapist's day off and finds clients who owe money or have sessions left. Sign in to Salonist once in your own Cloud Browser.

We never keep your Salonist password, and no booking, move, bill or package goes through until you approve it. ## How to connect Salonist to your AI agent 1. **Sign in to Salonist in a Cloud Browser.** Create a Cotlet account, open Salonist in its Cloud Browser, sign in with your Salonist partner login on salonist.io and press Enable for agents. 2. **Add the Cotlet address.** Enter https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 as the MCP server or connector URL in your agent. 3. **Let the agent in.** Chat apps open a Cotlet sign-in page. Editors, n8n and scripts send an API key made in the console. Salonist shares the address `https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1` with every other app you enable, so one connector covers them all. Turned Salonist on after connecting? Refresh the connector and the 11 tools appear.

Bookings and moves wait for your OK; your notification settings decide what the client hears. Blocked time reaches no one, so it runs at once. - **List appointments** (`list_appointments`, read): Appointments for a day or range, by staff member. - **Find free slots** (`find_free_slots`, read): Open times for a service, optionally with one staff member. - **Book appointment** (`book_appointment`, write, asks first): Books a service for a client with a staff member. - **Reschedule appointment** (`reschedule_appointment`, write, asks first): Moves an appointment to a new time or staff member. - **Block time** (`block_time`, write): Blocks time on a staff calendar. ### Clients Search matches name, phone and email, so a returning client is found before a duplicate is made. Outstanding payments and package sessions come with each client. - **List clients** (`list_clients`, read): Clients, searchable by name, phone or email. - **Get client** (`get_client`, read): One client with visits, packages and outstanding payments. - **Create client** (`create_client`, write): Adds a new client. ### Billing and packages Bills and packages wait for your OK. Taking the payment stays with your front desk. - **Create bill** (`create_bill`, write, asks first): Raises the bill for a completed appointment. - **Assign package** (`assign_package`, write, asks first): Assigns a package to a client. - **List services** (`list_services`, read): Your service menu with durations and prices. Inputs, REST path and example response of every tool: https://cotlet.dev/integrations/salonist-api-mcp-server#tools ## Who can see my Salonist session, and how do I revoke it? - **What we store.** Your signed-in Salonist profile, AES-256-GCM encrypted, in Finland. No password. - **What your agent gets.** The 11 Salonist tools, never the session cookie. - **What the session sees.** What your login sees: calendar, clients, bills, packages, services. - **What no tool touches.** Taking payments, refunds, payroll, marketing sends, deletes. - **If Salonist signs you out.** You sign in again yourself, in the same Cloud Browser. - **How to cut access.** Disable for agents, reset the browser, or change your Salonist password. Cotlet never types your password: you sign in yourself, and the agent only uses the session. Our site scores A+ on Qualys SSL Labs, securityheaders.com and Mozilla Observatory ([live results](https://cotlet.dev/security.md)). ## What happens when Salonist changes? - **12 h** between tests of the Salonist reads - **24 h** between tests of sends a customer would notice - **$0** for a call to a Salonist tool paused for repair When Salonist moves a button on the calendar or renames a billing screen, we fix the tool and your agent calls it the same way. [status.cotlet.dev](https://status.cotlet.dev) checks the site, console and API every 3 minutes. ## Approvals, undo and mistakes 1. **Reads Saturday's appointments.** For the therapist who is off. 2. **Finds free slots.** With others who do the same service. 3. **Proposes the moves.** And lists what does not fit. 4. **Waits, then moves.** The batch shows up in your Cotlet console first. | Action | Undo | |---|---| | Book an appointment | Yes, cancel it | | Move an appointment | Move it back; a message already sent stays sent | | Create a bill or assign a package | Yes, void it in Salonist before payment | | Add a client or blocked time | Yes, edit it in Salonist | 4 of 11 tools ask first: book_appointment, reschedule_appointment, create_bill, assign_package. New clients and blocked time reach no customer, so they run at once. You can turn the wait off per tool once you trust a routine. MCP call: ``` { "name": "book_appointment", "arguments": { "client_id": "CL-8853", "service": "Gel manicure", "staff": "Joy", "start": "2026-11-13T15:00" } } ``` REST: ``` curl -X POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/salonist/clients/CL-8853/appointments \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $COTLET_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"service":"Gel manicure","staff":"Joy","start":"2026-11-13T15:00"}' ``` Response: ``` { "appointment_id": "AP-55160", "client": "Layla Haddad", "service": "Gel manicure", "staff": "Joy", "start": "2026-11-13T15:00", "status": "Confirmed" } ``` A cron job or n8n flow can call the same tools over REST at `/api/v1/salonist` with the same key and price, in JSON.

Dollars at the $29 pack rate. ## Salonist MCP server on GitHub, Zapier or hosted: which to use | Option | What it does | Where it stops | |---|---|---| | Salonist API | Booking widget calls for your own developer. | Expert plan only; little beyond services, staff and bookings. | | Salonist AI receptionist | Salonist's own add-on that answers clients on WhatsApp. | Works inside Salonist; not your ChatGPT or Claude. | | By hand | Every screen of Salonist, one booking at a time. | Your front desk's time. | If you are on Expert and have a developer, the API is enough for a booking widget. To book, reschedule and follow up from ChatGPT or Claude this week, Cotlet works in the Salonist account you already have. ## Who runs Cotlet Take Group sp. z o.o. runs Cotlet.

Sign up free at https://cotlet.dev, open Salonist under Integrations in the console and sign in to Salonist in its Cloud Browser. The trial starts with your first app and asks for no card. ### How do I connect Salonist to ChatGPT or Claude? Sign up at cotlet.dev, log in to Salonist once in its Cloud Browser and add Cotlet to ChatGPT or Claude, following the steps in your console. No API key is needed. ChatGPT and Claude then work in your Salonist account through Cotlet, in their phone apps too. ### What can ChatGPT do in Salonist? With Cotlet, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents handle jobs like these in Salonist: book appointments from WhatsApp messages; cover a staff member's day off; chase outstanding payments. You ask in plain words, and anything that reaches other people waits for your OK first. ### Is there an official ChatGPT or Claude app for Salonist? No. Salonist has no ChatGPT or Claude connector of its own and Salonist has no official MCP server (checked 8 Nov 2026). Cotlet is an independent one that works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and any MCP client, on your signed-in account. ### Can ChatGPT book appointments in Salonist? Yes, with Cotlet. ChatGPT finds the client, checks free slots for the service and books it with the staff member you name. Booking waits for your OK by default. ### Can ChatGPT reschedule appointments in Salonist? Yes, with Cotlet. ChatGPT moves appointments to a new time or another staff member, for example when someone is off, after your OK. ### Can ChatGPT find clients who owe money in Salonist? Yes, with Cotlet. ChatGPT lists clients with outstanding payments or unused package sessions, with their last visit, so your front desk knows whom to call. ### Do I need the Salonist Expert plan to use Cotlet? No. Cotlet works through your own Salonist login on any plan, so you do not need Expert plan API access or a developer. It can do what your login can do in Salonist. ### Does it work with Salonist's AI receptionist? Yes. The receptionist answers clients inside Salonist; Cotlet lets ChatGPT or Claude work in the same account. A booking it makes shows up for your agent like any other. ### Is the MCP server different from the REST API? Only in how it is called. Both carry the same 11 tools, inputs, answers, API key and price. Agents use MCP; scripts and HTTP steps use REST. ### Is Cotlet affiliated with Salonist? No. Cotlet is independent and not affiliated with Salonist. --- Give your AI agents your signed-in browser. **Product:** [Integrations](https://cotlet.dev/integrations.md) · [How it works](https://cotlet.dev/how-it-works.md) · [Pricing](https://cotlet.dev/pricing.md) · [Security](https://cotlet.dev/security.md) **Resources:** [Blog](https://cotlet.dev/blog.md) · [API docs](https://cotlet.dev/docs.md) · [Help center](https://cotlet.dev/help.md) · [Changelog](https://cotlet.dev/changelog.md) · [GitHub](https://github.com/cotletdev/cotlet) **Solutions:** [For developers](https://cotlet.dev/for-developers.md) · [For automation agencies](https://cotlet.dev/for-agencies.md) **Company:** [About](https://cotlet.dev/about.md) · [AI info: company facts](https://cotlet.dev/ai-info.md) · [Contact](https://cotlet.dev/contact.md) **Legal:** [Terms of service](https://cotlet.dev/terms) · [Privacy policy](https://cotlet.dev/privacy) · [Refund policy](https://cotlet.dev/refunds) · [Acceptable use](https://cotlet.dev/acceptable-use) · [Cookie policy](https://cotlet.dev/cookies) · [DPA](https://cotlet.dev/dpa) · [Subprocessors](https://cotlet.dev/subprocessors) **Elsewhere:** [Status page](https://status.cotlet.dev) · [Cotlet on GitHub](https://github.com/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on X](https://x.com/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/cotletdev) · [Cotlet on Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/products/cotlet) · [Cotlet on Crunchbase](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/cotlet) · [Cotlet on SaaSHub](https://www.saashub.com/cotlet) Cotlet.dev is built by Bart Krawczyk and Jake Slugocki, the founders of Take Group sp. z o.o., ul.
