Where shop calls end up at the next shop

Your service writer is under a lift and the desk phone rings out.
Today

The driver with grinding brakes calls the next shop on the list, and that shop gets the brake job.

With QuickVOC

The agent picks up in your shop name, gets the year, make and model and what the car is doing, quotes from your menu and books the drop-off the caller picks.

6 PM on a Friday, a customer's truck starts overheating on the highway.
Today

Your shop is closed. They leave no message and have it towed to whoever answers first.

With QuickVOC

The agent hears "overheating", marks the call urgent, takes the vehicle and a drop-off time, and sends you an urgent Telegram alert when the call ends, so you can call them tonight if you choose.

Your Local Services ad brings in a phone lead at 7:15 PM.
Today

You see it the next morning. By then they have booked with a shop that called back first.

With QuickVOC

The agent calls the lead within a few minutes, asks what the car needs and books a drop-off while they are still deciding where to take it.

Job typesBrakesDiagnosticsOil change

Brake job or oil change? The drop-off gets booked right.

A shop runs on drop-offs, not appointments to the minute. The agent books the way your service desk does: what's wrong, which vehicle, and when the customer can bring it in.

  • The vehicle first

    Year, make and model on every call, so your tech knows what is coming before the keys land on the counter.

  • Symptoms in the customer's words

    Grinding, a check engine light, won't start. It sorts the job into brakes, oil change, diagnosis, tires or battery and quotes from your menu.

  • The customer picks the drop-off

    It asks what day and time they can bring the car in and reads it back before it books.

  • Brake failure and overheating jump the line

    Those words make the call urgent: the soonest drop-off or a detailed message, and an urgent Telegram alert to you as soon as the call ends.

Auto shop answering service questions

Something else on your mind? Talk to us.

How does an auto repair answering service work?
Forward your shop line to QuickVOC when the desk is busy or after hours, or use a new local number. The AI receptionist answers in your shop name, asks what the vehicle is doing and its year, make and model, quotes from your menu and books the drop-off day and time the customer picks. Each call is recorded, transcribed and summarized on your lead board.
Can an AI receptionist for an auto repair shop handle urgent calls?
Yes. Words like brakes failed, overheating, smoke from the hood or towed in switch the call to an urgent path. The agent gets the name, vehicle and what happened, offers the soonest drop-off or takes a detailed message, and sends you an urgent Telegram alert as soon as the call ends. It never promises a same-day repair.
Will it quote repair prices over the phone?
Only the prices on your menu, like a $79 synthetic oil change or brake pads from $189. For anything that needs a diagnosis, it quotes your diagnostic fee and books the drop-off instead of guessing what the repair will cost. Your tech still makes the call once the car is on the lift.
Does it call back Google Local Services Ads leads?
Yes. Connect your Local Services Ads account and phone leads get a call from the agent within a few minutes, day or night. It asks what the car needs, gets the vehicle details and books a drop-off on the same call. Message leads from your ads get a reply too, and every lead lands on the same board.
How much does an auto shop answering service cost?
Starter is $149 a month for 300 minutes of AI calls, a business number, website chat and the lead pipeline. Pro is $299 a month for 1,000 minutes, three numbers and ten team members. Business is $549 a month for 2,500 minutes when call volume is high. Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial that includes 25 minutes, and you don't need a credit card.
Can customers still talk to my service writer?
Yes. If a caller asks for a person while your team is on duty, the agent transfers the call to the shop. After hours it takes a detailed message and alerts you on Telegram. It also answers in Spanish or any of the 15 languages you turn on, and switches as soon as the caller does.
