BookingKoala API and integrations: what cleaning owners can use so nothing falls through the cracks
Integrations move data. Watching every lead and client conversation is a different job. Sergio makes sure nothing falls through the cracks in your cleaning business, even when you're not watching.
BookingKoala connects to other tools mainly through automation platforms like Zapier and Make, which use BookingKoala events such as new bookings, cancellations and new customers, and developers can build on its API. Sergio sits beside BookingKoala as a customer workspace: it uses your BookingKoala customer and booking data together with Quo and Gmail, and it does not change anything in BookingKoala.

Good to know: BookingKoala data reaches Sergio through an uploaded export, not a live sync. BookingKoala stays your booking system, and nothing moves off it. This guide is not BookingKoala API documentation; check API access and plan requirements with BookingKoala.
The integration options, by layer
- Automation platforms (Zapier, Make). Pick a BookingKoala trigger, then send the data somewhere else: a spreadsheet, a Slack message, an email tool, or an AI step. Good for single, clear tasks.
- Custom API work. A developer builds directly against BookingKoala. The most flexible, and you own the upkeep.
- MCP servers for AI assistants. Zapier MCP and Cotlet's unofficial BookingKoala MCP let ChatGPT or Claude reach BookingKoala actions.
- A workspace that uses BookingKoala data. Sergio combines BookingKoala history with Quo texts and calls and Gmail, so your team and your AI assistant see one customer record.
Comparison
| Option | Who builds it | Data it works with | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zapier | You, in a no-code editor | BookingKoala events plus other apps | Simple one-step automations | Zaps multiply and break quietly |
| Make | You, in a visual editor | BookingKoala triggers and API calls | Multi-step, branching workflows | Steeper learning curve |
| Custom API | A developer | Whatever the API exposes | Unusual needs | Cost and upkeep |
| Cotlet BookingKoala MCP | A third party | BookingKoala through an unofficial MCP | An AI acting on BookingKoala directly | Unofficial; review permissions |
| Sergio | Sergio, set up with you during onboarding | BookingKoala customer and booking data, Quo, Gmail | Customer context, follow-up drafts, winback, AI questions | Needs a Sergio account; reads your BookingKoala data and never changes BookingKoala |
What you need for Sergio
A Sergio account and an uploaded BookingKoala export. For AI access, your AI client must allow custom MCP connections with OAuth sign-in. Server address: https://sergio.serviche.com/api/agent/mcp. Setup steps: the Sergio MCP guide. The Sergio team tested fresh ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and Muse connections on November 7, 2026, and all four worked. That does not promise every AI client will.
How it works
- Export your BookingKoala data and upload the export to Sergio.
- Connect Quo and Gmail so Sergio has your conversations.
- For AI access, follow the Sergio MCP guide and approve Sergio through OAuth.
- Ask which leads need attention. Review follow-ups before they send, or, as the owner, turn on auto-send.
- Upload a newer export for newer BookingKoala history. This is not a live sync.
Where Sergio fits: making sure nothing falls through the cracks
- One customer history across bookings, texts, calls and email, with lifetime value.
- Winback [campaigns](/campaigns) for one-time customers who have not rebooked, reviewed first or sent automatically.
- Lead follow-up on any account, reviewed before it sends unless the owner turns on auto-send. Inbox replies can be drafted for review.
- AI assistant access through the Sergio MCP for ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and Muse (setup).
FAQ
