LayUp Sports Booking

Set up an email alert for the user: LayUp watches for NEW matching slots (e.g. a cancellation freeing up a peak court) and emails them when one appears. Use when the user can't find a slot now and wants to be notified, or asks to 'monitor'/'watch'/'let me know when'. Requires their email. NARROW IT FIRST. An alert with no venues attached matches hundreds of slots, so the emails read as a dump rather than an alert: of 20 such alerts, 1 was ever confirmed and 8 died unconfirmed at the send cap. Call this without venue_names and the tool will NOT create an alert — it returns the venues LayUp covers in that area so you can ask the user which ones they want, and prompts for the days and times that suit them. Then call again with their answers. LayUp does the watching; the notification arrives by email, not in this chat.

List upcoming bookable slots at a single venue, identified by its venue_slug (as returned by search_slots). Use to drill into one venue after a search.

List the sports LayUp covers with a count of slots available in the next 7 days. Useful as a quick overview before a more specific search.

Find out WHERE and WHEN there is availability, before asking the user a clarifying question. Takes the same filters as search_slots and returns counts by area, day, time band and price — not slots. Use it when the request is under-specified ('find me a tennis court', 'somewhere for a group') so the question you ask back is grounded in real supply: ask 'Wandsworth (8 venues) or Richmond (7)?' rather than an open 'which area?'. Also use it when a search returned nothing, to say which nearby area or time DOES have slots instead of reporting a dead end.

Search bookable sports slots in London across every provider LayUp aggregates. Use when a user wants to find a court, pitch, lane, class or pickup game for football, tennis, squash, padel or swimming. Filter by sport, area/borough, date range, time of day and max price. Returns upcoming slots with venue, London-local time, price, provider and a booking link. Times default to the next 7 days.
