AutoShopDesk is an AI receptionist that answers your garage's phone 24/7 — after hours, weekends, and whenever your team is already busy under a bonnet — and books the job before the customer rings the next shop.
When the phone rings and nobody can get to it, the customer doesn't wait. They scroll to the next garage on Google and call them instead. It happens every single day — and nothing tells you it did.
The team is heads-down on a car. The phone rings mid-job — and the bay always wins.
After 5pm, the shop goes silent. Evening and weekend callers reach nobody at all.
Voicemail doesn't save it. Most callers hang up rather than leave a message.
You already paid to make that phone ring — through your time, your reputation, your local presence.
For a shop taking 35 calls a day, that's around a dozen conversations lost — and each one could have been a booking.
No new phone, no new system for your team to learn. We do the setup for you — it works with the number you already have.
Your services, your hours, your prices — the AI is set up to answer the way your own front desk would.
When your team can't pick up — or it's after hours — your line quietly forwards to AutoShopDesk.
The AI answers, helps the caller, books the appointment, and sends your team a clear summary.
Not a generic answering service. AutoShopDesk is built for repair shops — it speaks your trade.
24/7, weekends and holidays — and during the day when your team is already busy.
Knows the difference between a drop-off and a wait, and books the right slot.
Never guesses a price — it books the car in for a proper look, the way a good advisor would.
A breakdown or a safety worry is flagged straight to your team — not left in a queue.
Every call ends with a tidy summary, so nothing is lost and nobody has to chase.
If a call ever slips through, the caller gets a friendly text within seconds.
We're getting ready to work with a small number of independent garages across the North East. Founding garages get a free pilot, set up entirely by us — no setup fee, no contract. If you'd like to be one of them, get in touch and we'll be in contact.
A quick, no-pressure chat — and if you'd like, you can hear the AI answer a call live. Drop me a line and I'll get straight back to you.
