AI receptionist for auto repair shops

An AI receptionist for an auto repair shop is a virtual receptionist, run by AI, that answers the shop's phone, talks to callers in a natural voice and books the work. On Your Clock is an AI receptionist for auto repair shops in the US and Canada. It gets the caller's name, number, vehicle and problem, books the appointment into your calendar or shop software, and sends you a summary of every call.

On Your Clock costs $249, $549 or $1,099 a month, depending on call volume. Starter includes 300 minutes, about 200 calls. Shop includes 900 minutes, about 600 calls, and fits most 2 to 6 bay shops. Multi bay includes 2,500 minutes, about 1,650 calls. Every plan includes your dashboard. Setup is free, or a one time $199 to connect your shop software or your own calendar, paid only after your free trial.

On Your Clock always answers in your shop's name, and you decide in your settings whether it tells callers it is an AI assistant.

Yes. On Your Clock books the appointment, adds the customer's details and creates a repair order, as far as your system allows, in Tekmetric, Shop‑Ware, Shopmonkey, Mitchell 1, AutoLeap, Shop Boss and other shop management software. If your shop runs on something else, our team connects it during setup, which takes 1 to 3 days. Shops without software use the booking calendar in their On Your Clock dashboard, or the calendar they already use, like Google Calendar.

On Your Clock works without shop management software: every plan includes its dashboard, with a booking calendar built in. The agent's bookings go straight in or wait for your approval, as you choose. You add your own appointments, follow each lead from pending to done, and add what each job was worth to track your money. It doesn't order parts, look up labor times or create invoices, so if you need those, keep your shop management software and we'll connect it.

Your shop keeps its own number. You forward its calls to the number we give you, and that is all the free trial needs to start. If you want your shop software connected, we do it in 1 to 3 days.

Yes. You choose when On Your Clock answers: after hours only, peak hours, the lunch rush, weekends or 24/7. You can change the schedule any time from your dashboard, and every plan costs the same whatever hours you pick. During the hours you cover yourself, your phone rings as normal.

When a caller asks for someone, the agent takes their details and marks the request in the call summary and your dashboard, and in your shop software if it's connected, so your team can call back. If a caller describes an emergency, like a fire or an accident, the agent tells them to call 911 first. For urgent jobs like a breakdown, you set the rule: flag it, alert your on call person, or book the earliest slot.

In your On Your Clock dashboard. Every call has a summary and a full transcript, and you can read them any time.

For shops that want jobs booked at any hour, yes. Many automotive answering services take a message so someone can call the customer back later, and some can book into an online calendar. On Your Clock books the appointment during the call, sends it to your shop software or calendar, and gives you a summary and full transcript of every call, for one monthly price.

Book a demo and we switch On Your Clock on for your shop's phone line, with your full dashboard ready. The trial runs for 7 days or 30 minutes of calls, about 20 calls, whichever comes first. No card is needed and no shop software setup is needed. You only pay setup if you choose a plan and want your shop software or your own calendar connected.

You get 50 extra minutes free that month, about 30 more calls. After those, the agent stops answering. We alert you when your plan's minutes run out and again as the extra minutes are used, so you can move to the next plan up in time.

There's no contract. Every plan is month to month. If you cancel, the service keeps answering until the end of the month you paid for.

Yes. Each location gets its own plan on its own phone line, so you choose the minutes each shop needs. Each location also gets its own dashboard, so the person who runs that shop sees its calls.

Yes. On Your Clock answers calls for auto repair shops across the US and Canada, on the shop's existing phone number, with the same plans and the same free trial. Prices are in US dollars.
