    AI Receptionist for Mechanics

    A customer with a broken-down vehicle doesn't wait until you're back at the counter. TradePA's AI receptionist answers calls for mechanics when you're under a vehicle on a hoist, running diagnostics, or in the middle of a brake replacement — identifying whether it's a logbook service, a brake job or a diagnostic enquiry, capturing the vehicle details and suburb, and helping them take the next step while you finish the job in front of you.

    The Problem

    Being Busy on the Tools Shouldn't Mean Losing Mechanic Jobs

    Most mechanics don't lose work because they're bad at the job. They lose it because they're under a vehicle on a hoist, or running diagnostics on an engine, when a customer rings about a logbook service. The customer gets voicemail, rings another workshop, and you've lost the booking before you've even climbed out from under the car.

    •You're under a vehicle on a hoist when a customer calls about a logbook service — the phone rings out and they ring-3 another workshop.
    •A customer rings at 8am about a brake repair — you're already in the middle of a job and miss the call, so they book the next mechanic.
    •You're test-driving a vehicle and miss a call about a diagnostic — by the time you ring-3 back, they've booked someone else.
    •A fleet manager calls about scheduled servicing while you're speaking with a customer at the counter — the enquiry slips through the cracks.
    •Overflow calls while you're on the phone to a parts supplier get sent to voicemail and never followed up.

    Real Mechanics Scenarios

    Real Mechanics Call Scenarios

    Logbook service bookings

    A customer rings about a logbook service. The AI captures the vehicle make, model, year and preferred date — so you arrive at the booking knowing the parts you'll need.

    Brake repair enquiries

    Someone rings about a brake repair. The AI gathers the vehicle details, symptoms and urgency — so you can quote accurately and prioritise safety-critical work.

    Diagnostic enquiries

    A customer rings about a warning light. The AI captures the vehicle details and symptom description so you arrive at the diagnosis prepared.

    Fleet servicing

    A fleet manager rings about scheduled servicing across multiple vehicles. The AI captures the fleet size and contact details so you can quote the whole job.

    Overflow while servicing

    When you're already on a call with a parts supplier, the AI picks up the second line so a booking enquiry doesn't go to voicemail and get forgotten.

    Roadworthy inspections

    A customer rings about a roadworthy inspection. The AI captures the vehicle details and preferred date so you can schedule the inspection properly.
