AI FOR AUTO REPAIR SHOPS
Status updates and maintenance reminders
Half the shop's phone calls are customers asking a question the shop could have answered before they asked: is my car done, did the part come in, am I due for service? Automatic updates answer all of them — and mileage-based reminders bring customers back when service is actually due, not when they happen to remember you exist.
HOW IT WORKS IN YOUR BUSINESS
A Day With This Running.
Not a product demo — a walk through what an ordinary day looks like once this is in place.
Car checked in: text. Diagnosis done, estimate sent: text. Work finished: 'ready for pickup, here's the total.' Nobody calls to ask, because nobody has to.
'The part for your Camry arrived — want Tuesday or Wednesday?' The backlog of waiting-on-parts jobs books itself.
Based on each car's actual driving pace, 'you're coming up on 60k — due for transmission service' arrives at the right month, with one-tap booking.
The calls that remain are new business, not status checks. The writer writes service instead of playing receptionist.
BEFORE & AFTER
What Actually Changes.
▸Before: 10–20
▸After: A handful
▸Before: Whenever customers remember
▸After: A steady booked stream — typically 10–20 extra visits a month
▸Before: A few every month — lost work
▸After: Near zero; the follow-up is automatic
What it saves, in one line: Fewer 'is it done yet?' calls interrupting the shop, and a steady stream of return visits nobody had to remember to schedule.
GETTING SET UP
Simpler Than You'd Think.
No rip-and-replace, no new systems to learn, nothing goes live without your say-so. Here's the whole process:
- ▸We hook into your shop-management system's job statuses — the updates trigger off what you already track.
- ▸We write the message templates in your shop's voice, from check-in to pickup.
- ▸Mileage reminders build themselves from your service history.
