EmpfangoAI phone assistant for car repair shops
While your team works on the vehicles, the phone rings unanswered. Empfango takes requests and books workshop appointments — without interrupting your work.
In the workshop the phone is both a distraction and the source of new jobs. Empfango takes service and repair requests, captures the request, licence plate and preferred date and books workshop appointments. For individual repairs Empfango quotes no flat prices but points to a diagnosis — and acute breakdowns it forwards directly.

Appointments are revenue: the workshop phone in good hands
In a workshop the phone is at a structural disadvantage: whoever is under the lift or working on a car can't pick up — and the caller with the MOT appointment books with the next workshop. Empfango answers every call immediately and books appointments directly into your calendar.
This pays off especially in peak phases like tyre-change season: the AI takes any number of calls in parallel, assigns slots according to your rules and captures vehicle, registration and request along the way — your team keeps working.
On prices the AI stays honest: it only quotes what you have configured — such as fixed prices for MOT or tyre changes — and records everything else as an enquiry for a qualified callback instead of guessing repair costs.
Breakdowns and urgent cases are recognised and forwarded immediately — including location and callback number, so help can happen instead of ending on tape.
