Reviews from Auto Repair Shops

Livia Bianchi
‍Sponsorship & Marketing

“My mechanics were constantly on the phone with greasy hands—taking requests for vehicle inspections, tire changes, and maintenance.” Since Fonio took over, appointments are booked directly and we only receive a summary. "Finally, my team can focus on the cars instead of the phone."

Maurus Weiss
Auto Mechanic

“Especially between 7 and 9 a.m., we received more calls than one person could handle.” Customers with breakdowns, rescheduled appointments, requests for replacement parts—all at once. "fonio can now handle 15 calls simultaneously, prioritizing them by urgency and immediately forwarding breakdowns."

Arvid Lindgren
‍Treasurer & Administration

"In the spring and fall, when it's time for tire changes, our phone lines are jammed." In the past, we used to lose 20 calls a day—customers who would just drive to the next repair shop. "Since Fonio has been booking appointments even after hours, we've seen a noticeable increase in orders during the season."

Lars Sorenson

"The questions are the same every day: How much does an oil change cost?" Do you have any more appointments this week? Do you guys do HU too? Fonio now responds immediately and even recognizes the abbreviations correctly. "I won't be constantly interrupted while entering orders anymore."

What can the AI Phone Assistant do for Auto Repair Shops?

Handle calls 24/7

The AI Phone Assistant for auto repair shops can handle most calls independently around the clock, automatically forward calls, schedule tire changes, oil changes, or other repair shop appointments, and respond to customer inquiries.

...

Take on repetitive tasks

The AI Phone Assistant is able to answer all calls received by the auto repair shop. It records all requests, independently answers general questions, and automatically forwards specific questions to the designated contact person.

...

Smart forwarding

An AI Phone Assistant makes it easy to forward phone calls depending on the nature of the inquiry. If a customer explicitly asks for a specific contact person or a suitable topic assigned to a responsible person during the conversation, the AI Phone Assistant forwards the customer directly without any detours. If the contact person is unavailable, the AI Phone Assistant leaves a callback note.

...

Schedule appointments automatically

The AI Phone Assistant for auto repair shops independently schedules appointments for the shop. For example, when a customer calls to schedule an appointment for a tire change or general inspection, the AI Phone Assistant is capable of transferring the booking directly to the connected shop appointment system. In addition to making new appointments, the AI Phone Assistant can also modify existing appointments. It analyzes the availability of all employees in real time based on the appointment calendar and thus automatically schedules and changes appointments.

...

Conducting dynamic conversations

The AI Phone Assistant reliably responds to customer inquiries even outside business hours. If very specific requests cannot be handled by the AI Phone Assistant, such as sensitive questions about financing or spare parts availability, the AI forwards the call directly to the right department or sends a callback request by email. The callback request includes the subject of the customer's concern and contact options, such as available time slots, phone number, and name. This ensures that no calls are lost and, at the same time, reduces the workload for the auto repair shop employees.

...

Automatic Post-Processing
