Exactly what an auto shop needs from an AI receptionist
Not a generic chatbot. Auto Shop Receptionist is trained for the day-to-day reality of auto repair shops: dropped calls, busy bays, and customers who need answers now.
Built for repair questions
“Check engine light is on.” “Brakes squeaking.” “How much for an oil change?” Your AI agent handles common concerns, explains next steps, and encourages customers to book a visit.
Books appointments into your calendar
The agent collects name, phone, vehicle, concern, and preferred time window, then books straight into your calendar so you start each day with a full schedule.
Consistent, professional tone
Every customer gets the same friendly, confident experience—no matter how busy the front desk is or who’s working that day.
Call analytics & insights
See how many calls you get, when your busiest hours are, and what customers are asking for the most so you can staff and price smarter.
Tailored to your shop
We tune the AI to your services, labor rate, warranties, shuttle/loaner options, and shop policies so it sounds like your service advisor, not a generic call center.

In a few simple steps, your shop goes from missed calls and voicemail to a fully staffed, AI-powered front desk.

Questions auto shop owners ask us
If you’re used to doing everything yourself, letting an AI pick up your phones can feel like a big step. Here are straight answers to the most common questions.
Will my customers know they’re talking to AI?
Most customers simply hear a clear, helpful voice that answers quickly and books their appointment. We can configure the script so it either introduces itself as an AI assistant or just as your shop’s receptionist, depending on your preference and local regulations.
Can the AI handle complex diagnostic questions?
The agent is designed to handle common concerns, capture symptoms, and then guide the caller to an appointment. When a question is too specific or requires a technician’s judgment, it will politely explain that we need to see the vehicle and offer the soonest available slot.
How do you connect to my phone system?
During onboarding, we review whether you use a VoIP provider, call forwarding, or a traditional line. In most cases, we forward your main number (or after-hours number) to the AI line so that calls are answered without hardware changes. We’ll walk you through this step-by-step during your demo.
What if I get a lot of spam calls or price shoppers?
The AI can screen out obvious spam, collect basic info from price shoppers, and focus on converting real repair opportunities into appointments. You control how aggressive or selective the agent is in booking jobs.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Plans are month-to-month. If Auto Shop Receptionist isn’t adding value, you can cancel anytime. Our goal is to earn your business every single month by keeping your bays full.
Can you support bilingual callers?
Yes. Many shops serve communities where more than one language is common. We can configure the agent to greet in one language and offer another, or detect and respond appropriately, depending on the capabilities we enable for your plan.
