What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, I'd get texts at 2 AM about dead batteries in remote areas and have to play catch-up in the morning—half the time, they'd call a tow truck from a closer shop. Now, it books the jump-start or replacement job right then with instant quotes, and I've added three extra mobile calls a week without changing my routes or adding staff."
Mike Rivera
Owner, QuickFix Mobile Mechanics, serving Phoenix metro area
"Our old system couldn't handle the flood of after-work oil change requests from shift workers. Since integrating this chatbot three months ago, responses are immediate via SMS, and we've cut no-shows from 25% to under 5% for our van-based services. It's like having an extra mechanic just for customer chats during evening peaks."
Sarah Patel
Operations Lead, RoadReady Auto Services, Dallas-Fort Worth fleet
"I was skeptical about AI understanding mobile diagnostics for OBD-II scans, but it nails questions on wheel alignments and even suggests upsells like tire rotations based on vehicle mileage. In the first month, it turned 15 lost leads into $4,500 in revenue for our on-demand team—real game-changer for our small three-technician outfit."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the chatbot handle urgent roadside assistance requests outside business hours?
Our AI is engineered for the unpredictability of mobile mechanics. It instantly acknowledges emergencies like dead batteries or lockouts, provides preliminary advice based on your service guidelines, and books a slot if you're available—checking your real-time location via integration. For instance, if a customer reports a flat tire at midnight, it quotes your standard rate, confirms details, and notifies you only if needed. This setup has helped clients respond to 90% of after-hours calls within minutes, preventing lost revenue from competitors. We customize the logic to your response radius and peak times, ensuring it's not just reactive but proactive in capturing those critical jobs.
Can the chatbot integrate with my existing mobile CRM or dispatch software?
Absolutely—custom integration is our hallmark. We connect directly to tools like Housecall Pro or your custom dispatch app, syncing customer info, vehicle details, and job statuses seamlessly. No more manual entry after a long day of alignments or exhaust repairs. For example, when a query about brake pads comes in, the bot pulls your availability, updates the CRM with notes, and even attaches photos if uploaded. This two-way flow creates a single source of truth, reducing errors by 40% as per our automotive deployments. We handle the heavy lifting, testing for your specific workflow to avoid disruptions.
What kind of automotive knowledge does the chatbot have?
It's trained deeply on mobile mechanic scenarios, from basic tune-ups to advanced diagnostics like transmission slips or suspension issues. We ingest your service manuals, pricing, and common queries to make it speak the language—terms like 'rotor resurfacing' or 'serpentine belt replacement' are second nature. Unlike generic bots, ours learns from your past jobs, suggesting relevant upsells like fluid checks during oil change chats. Clients report 75% resolution rate on first contact for routine inquiries, freeing you for fieldwork. We continually refine it with your feedback, ensuring it evolves with industry shifts like EV battery services.
Is the chatbot secure for handling customer vehicle and location data?
Security is non-negotiable in mobile services where you're dealing with personal locations and VIN numbers. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, GDPR-compliant storage, and role-based access to protect sensitive info. For instance, location data from a tow request is anonymized post-use and never stored long-term. Our systems have zero breaches in 200+ deployments, audited against automotive standards. You control data flows, with options to auto-delete after job completion. This peace of mind lets you focus on repairs without worrying about compliance headaches.
How much does a custom chatbot cost, and what's the timeline for mobile mechanics?
Pricing starts at $8,500 for a tailored build, scaling with integrations like GPS or payments—far below the $15K+ for enterprise templates, with full ownership avoiding ongoing fees. Timeline: 4-6 weeks from kickoff to launch, including your input on scenarios like emergency AC fixes. We phase it: week 1 for discovery, weeks 2-3 for build and train, then testing in your live environment. Post-launch, we monitor for 30 days to optimize, ensuring quick ROI through captured leads. Many mechanics see payback in 2-3 months via 20-30% more bookings.
What if the chatbot can't resolve a complex query, like a mysterious engine noise?
We design for smart handoffs— the AI detects complexity, gathers details like symptoms and mileage, then seamlessly transfers to you or a team member via preferred channel (call, text, or app). It preps a summary so you're briefed instantly, even mid-route. In practice, this happens in under 10% of interactions for mobile pros, with 85% customer retention on escalations. For engine knocks, it might ask targeted questions to narrow it down first, saving your time. This hybrid approach keeps satisfaction high while respecting your expertise on the road.
