Supplement your service operations and grow service revenue with automated outreach and personalized communication.
Put the power of conversational AI to work.
Most dealerships don’t have the time, nor the resources to focus on proactive business development for their service operation, and outsourced marketing partners are simply too expensive. Service AI provides a cost-effective, fully-automated communication platform that enables dealers to drive more service appointments. By continuously mining vehicle purchase and service records, Service AI targets prospective customers at key points throughout the ownership lifecycle. And with hyper-personalized messages, you’ll see higher response rates than with any other conversational AI solution available today.

“Service AI has boosted our service revenue”
“Service AI helps relieve the pressure in the service department when it comes to phone calls, following up on appointments, and reaching out to customers to bring them back in. We are seeing a lot of customers clicking the buttons and making appointments through the conversational AI instead of calling in – and that has boosted our service revenue. In turn, that gives our service advisors more time to focus on customers in front of them. Overall, we are highly satisfied with Service AI.”

Dealership service operations are a critical driver of gross profit and customer loyalty. In fact, 74% of car buyers whose vehicle was serviced by the dealership of purchase are likely to return there to buy their next vehicle. That’s why dealers need to do everything they can to attract service customers.
