AI Employee for Auto Repair Shops

Your Mechanic Is Under a Lift.
The Phone Rings. The Customer Hangs Up.

The average repair order is $300–$700. When a customer calls for a brake estimate and gets voicemail, they call the shop down the street. Vox answers every call, captures year/make/model, books the bay, and follows up on repair status—24/7.

Every Missed Call Is a Lost Repair Order

Techs Can't Answer Mid-Repair

Your mechanics are elbow-deep in an engine bay. They can't drop a wrench to answer the phone, and customers won't wait for a callback.

Customers Want Instant Estimates

Someone searching "brake pad replacement near me" is calling 2–3 shops. The first shop that answers with a ballpark price wins the job.

Competitors Answer Faster

National chains have call centers. Independent shops lose to them on phone response time—not quality. That changes now.

Vox: Your AI Service Advisor That Never Clocks Out

24/7 Call Handling

Every call answered in under 1 second. Evenings, weekends, lunch rush—no hold music, no voicemail. A customer calling about a check engine light at 9 PM gets the same service as a walk-in at 10 AM.

Vehicle Info Capture

Vox collects year, make, model, mileage, and the customer's description of the issue. By the time a tech looks at the ticket, they already know what they're dealing with.

Appointment Booking

Vox checks bay availability and books the drop-off. No double-booking. No phone tag. Customers get a confirmed time slot on the first call.

Repair Status Updates

"Is my car ready yet?" is the most common call an auto shop gets. Vox handles status inquiries so your techs stay on the lift, not on the phone.

Service Reminder Calls

Vox proactively calls customers when they're due for oil changes, tire rotations, or state inspections. Recurring revenue on autopilot.

How It Works for Auto Repair Shops

Step 1

Configure Services & Hours (20 min)

Enter your service menu (brakes, diagnostics, oil changes, tires), bay capacity, operating hours, and labor rates. Vox learns your shop.

Step 2

Forward Your Lines

Route overflow calls, after-hours calls, or all inbound calls to Vox. Most shops start with after-hours and expand to full coverage within weeks.

Step 3

Vox Captures Details & Books

Every call produces a structured work order: customer name, phone, vehicle year/make/model, issue description, and confirmed drop-off time. Pushed directly to your shop management software.

Step 4

Scale Without Hiring

Monday mornings. Post-holiday rush. Fleet accounts calling in bulk. Vox handles 10 simultaneous calls as easily as 1. No extra staff needed.

The Numbers

Average repair order: $300–$700. A busy shop fielding 40+ calls per day during peak hours misses 20–30% of them. That's 8–12 lost estimate requests daily.

At a 40% close rate and $450 average ticket: $150,000+ per year in lost revenue from unanswered phones alone.

One saved repair order per day at $450 = $11,700/month in recovered revenue. Vox pays for itself before your first oil change of the month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can it handle technical car questions? +
Vox isn't a mechanic—and it doesn't pretend to be. It won't diagnose a misfire over the phone. What it does: capture the customer's description of the problem (noise, warning light, vibration, leak), collect vehicle year/make/model/mileage, and book a diagnostic appointment. For common services like oil changes, brake pads, and tire rotations, Vox can provide your pre-set price ranges. Complex questions get routed to your service advisor with full context.
Does it integrate with shop management software? +
Yes. Vox integrates with any system that supports Zapier or webhooks—including ShopWare, Mitchell 1, Tekmetric, Shop-Ware, AutoFluent, and most other shop management platforms. Call data is pushed in real time as a structured work order: customer info, vehicle details, issue description, and appointment time. Setup takes 5–10 minutes per integration.
Can it give price estimates? +
Vox can share the price ranges you define. Set a range for oil changes ($39–$79), brake pads ($150–$300 per axle), diagnostics ($89–$129)—whatever you want callers to hear. For services that require inspection before quoting, Vox explains that and books a diagnostic appointment. You control every number. Vox never invents a price.
