I like the idea. CC'ing Sift seems scary for a user. What if it completely misunderstands the message and shows wrong info? That would look bad for the user. Is there a way to preview the message it sends to the other party?

Yes. Actually, your Sift responds back in 3-5 seconds telling you what it thinks you meant and let's you simply confirm when it gets it right or edit any details it missed. Natural language processing is hard so our approach is to do the best job we can and make sure the user agrees; after all the customer/user is always right, not the algorithm.

  Nice. I'm curious to see how the UI looks for the other person. I'm imagining some sort of grid where they can select available time slots?
