A repair shop sells trust and bay time, and both are booked by phone. When advisors are at the counter and technicians are mid-job, unanswered calls do not wait politely: they become your competitor's completed repair orders.
It is 10 a.m. and both advisors are buried: one is explaining a brake estimate to a customer at the counter, the other is on hold with a parts supplier chasing a control arm. The phone rings four times in twenty minutes. A commuter with a check-engine light who needs the car by Friday. A long-time customer whose alternator just failed in a parking lot. A fleet account with two vans due for service. Your techs could do every one of those jobs. None of them are booked, because the callers reached the shop down the street whose owner answered on the second ring. The work did not go to the better shop. It went to the reachable one.
A driver hears grinding brakes on the way to work and calls from a parking lot. Marvic captures symptoms, vehicle details and urgency, then books the earliest safe slot and arranges the drop-off.
A loyal customer's car will not start. They are calmed, the tow or jump options are discussed per your process, and the job is in your system before the vehicle arrives.
A fleet manager calls to rotate three vehicles through service. Appointments are sequenced around your bay availability and confirmations go to their dispatcher.
A customer calls for an update while their car is on the hoist. Routine status questions are answered from your process, and anything technical is passed to the advisor with context.
Marvic AI works like the service advisor you cannot clone. The AI Receptionist answers every call, asks the right symptom and vehicle questions, and books inspections, maintenance and repairs into your shop calendar with realistic durations. It explains your process, warranty approach and courtesy options consistently, and captures authorisation-ready details so advisors start ahead. Speed2Lead calls back website and Google profile enquiries in under 60 seconds, because a driver choosing a shop today is choosing whoever responds today. Your team stays on the counter and the tools; the phones simply stop being the bottleneck.
Symptoms, noises, warning lights and drivability are captured in the caller's words plus structured fields for the tech.
Oil services, inspections, brakes and diagnostics are booked with the right time allowances for each job type.
Estimates are explained, next steps confirmed by text, and authorisation requests routed to advisors immediately.
Oil-change and inspection reminders bring your existing customers back before a competitor's coupon does.
After-hours breakdown and booking calls are answered, so Monday starts with a full schedule instead of a full voicemail box.
It can share the guidance you approve, such as typical price ranges for common jobs, but most shops have it book the inspection so quotes reflect the actual vehicle.
Yes. Reminders and review prompts can go out after pickup, and routine questions about hours, warranties on your work and directions are answered automatically.
Yes. It can maintain a priority list of customers waiting for specific parts or services and fill cancellation slots from it.
You can. Many shops start with after-hours and overflow, see the booking quality, then expand to the main line with their approval.
There is a 14-day free trial, and plans are listed on the pricing page. A single recovered engine or brake job each month changes the maths quickly.
