AI Consulting for Automotive

Mechanics, car dealers, detailers, and automotive service providers. These are the specific problems we see automotive businesses bring to us:

1. Scheduling service appointments and bays. Our approach: monthly advisory retainers available as a fractional AI officer for your firm. This directly addresses the way automotive professionals actually work.

2. Tracking vehicle history and service records. Our approach: actionable roadmap with prioritised recommendations and realistic ROI estimates. This directly addresses the way automotive professionals actually work.

3. Managing parts inventory and orders. Our approach: honest assessment of what AI can and cannot do for your specific business. This directly addresses the way automotive professionals actually work.

4. Communicating job status to customers. Our approach: monthly advisory retainers available as a fractional AI officer for your firm. This directly addresses the way automotive professionals actually work.

Based on the challenges above, here are the applications we recommend for automotive businesses:

Appointment Booking: Workshop appointment scheduler. Learn how to build a appointment booking.

Asset Tracking: Service history and customer vehicle records. Learn how to build a asset tracking.

Push Notifications: Real-time service status notifications. Learn how to build a push notifications.

Each of these can be customised to your specific automotive workflows. We scope the exact features you need during a free consultation.

We measure success by real business outcomes, not feature lists. For automotive businesses, the key metrics are:

Jobs per day: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

Customer return rate: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

Average repair value: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

Tech adoption in automotive is at the low level. Most automotive businesses still rely on manual processes or generic tools. This is an opportunity. The first businesses in this space to adopt custom software will set the standard.

Typical investment: $500-1500. Most automotive clients see measurable ROI within the first month.

Discovery. You tell us about your automotive business: what is working, what is not, and what you wish you had. We ask about your current tools, team size, and daily workflows.

Scoping and quote. We define exactly what we will build and send you a fixed-price quote. No hourly rates. For automotive projects, this usually falls within $500-1500.

Build. We build your solution, typically within 1 day to ongoing. You talk directly to our founder and lead engineer. No project managers or middlemen.

Launch and handover. We deploy, walk your team through everything, and provide ongoing support. You own all the code and data.
