Customers want a real-time time-slot quote — your bay is busy
Caller asks 'can you do an oil change at 3pm today?' Your service writer is under a hood. RingDispatch checks your calendar, confirms the slot, books it, texts confirmation. No phone tag.
For auto repair shops
AI Receptionist for Auto Repair Shops
Oil-change drop-offs, brake-job estimates, check-engine diagnostics, post-collision insurance bookings — every call answered in 0.4 seconds, slot booked, pricing quoted, customer texted before they hang up.
What your callers hear
“Thanks for calling Brake Masters — what's going on with the vehicle? Did you need to book a drop-off, get a quick estimate, or come in right now?”
Built for the calls auto repair shops actually get
Diagnostic fee transparency saves your tech time
Quote your $99 check-engine diagnostic up front. Callers who balk don't waste a bay; callers who accept arrive with expectations set.
Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean customers — automatic language switch
32 languages, mid-call auto-detect. Many auto shops serve heavily bilingual neighborhoods; the AI handles them natively without a human translator.
How it works for auto repair shops
Photo-of-the-problem intake
Caller texts a photo of the warning light, the dented bumper, the broken bumper bracket. Your tech walks out to the bay knowing what they're looking at.
Insurance-claim booking flow
Post-collision callers can give an insurance claim number on the call; the AI captures it and your service writer has it ready before the car arrives.
Drop-off vs. waiter scheduling
Caller chooses drop-off-and-leave vs. waiting-in-the-lobby. The AI books accordingly so your service writer knows whether to expect a waiter.
From $129/mo. No contract. Cancel anytime.
Three plans (Starter / Professional / Enterprise), HIPAA add-on available, voice cloning available, BYO phone number. Most auto repair shops start on Professional for multi-staff routing.

Can the AI quote my labor rate and diagnostic fee accurately?
Yes — list your $99 check-engine diagnostic, $120/hr labor, and any flat-rate jobs (brake pads $X, oil change $Y) in the onboard knowledge form. The AI quotes every caller honestly.
Does it handle post-collision insurance work?
Yes. The AI captures the insurance carrier + claim number on the call, books the estimate slot, and texts the customer the appointment. Your service writer has the claim info ready when the car arrives.
Can it route different vehicle types or services to different techs?
Yes — on Professional+. List your techs (transmission specialist, brake guy, alignment tech) and the AI routes by service type to the right bay.
