An AI Receptionist Built for Car Dealerships

An AI receptionist answers so no enquiry rings out or waits in a queue. For a dealership specifically, that means recognising a sales enquiry, a service booking and a finance question as different conversations, each routed correctly, rather than one generic answering script.

THE JOB

Cover calls, chat and messaging with a receptionist that understands sales, service and finance enquiries differently.

WHAT CHANGES

More momentum.
Less manual chasing.

01

Never rings out unanswered

Calls, WhatsApp and web chat all get a response, including outside showroom hours.

02

Understands the department

A sales enquiry, a service booking and a finance question are recognised and routed differently.

03

Human handover when it matters

Complex, sensitive or high-value conversations move to a person rather than being forced through automation.

MANAGED END TO END

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before we talk.

What does an AI receptionist do for a car dealership?+

It answers calls, WhatsApp and web chat enquiries, works out whether the caller needs sales, service or finance, asks the right questions and either books the next step or routes the conversation to a person.

Is this the same as Overflow or Switchboard?+

AI receptionist is the category of problem. Switchboard covers always-on response across every channel, and Overflow specifically catches calls that would otherwise go unanswered. Both sit inside the wider receptionist job.

Can it tell sales calls apart from service calls?+

Yes. The conversation is designed to recognise intent and route accordingly, rather than treating every call the same way.

Will a caller always be able to reach a person?+

Human escalation rules are agreed during the build for the call types that need judgement, empathy or authority the automation should not exercise.
