Chatbot for Auto Repair & Detailing
Book more appointments from your website
Mika answers questions about your services, pricing, and turnaround times. Visitors can describe their issue, and Mika captures their info so you can follow up with an estimate.
The Problem
Sound familiar? These are the leads you are losing right now.
Your shop phone rings while your mechanics are under cars and your service writer is with a customer. Calls go to voicemail. Half of those callers try the next shop on Google.
Vehicle owners search 'oil change near me' at night and on weekends. Your website shows a phone number and hours, but no one is there to take the call.
When someone does leave a voicemail, it is often just 'Call me back.' No vehicle info, no description of the issue. You play phone tag for a day before you even know what they need.
“Nobody wants to play phone tag with an auto shop. Vehicle owners pick the shop that makes it easiest to describe the problem, get a price range, and book an appointment.”
