About

Built for the shop that has been burned before

ShopsConnect.AI is a small team building one thing: Anna, an AI receptionist for independent auto repair shops.

Why this

The phone is where the money leaks

Independent shops lose real work at the phone. The front desk is one person who is also writing repair orders, taking parts calls and talking to the customer standing at the counter. The call that goes to voicemail is usually a car that went down the street.

The existing options either belong to a competing shop-management platform you would have to switch to, or claim a Mitchell1 “sync” they cannot document. We did not want to build either.

So Anna doesn’t write into your shop software at all. She takes the request and emails your shop every call, and your front desk puts it on the schedule. It is the honest version of the product, and it happens to be the safer one.

ShopsConnect.AI is operated by SHOPSCONNECT INC, 120 Jewel St, Santa Cruz, CA.

Rules

What we hold ourselves to

  • Receipts or it does not ship

    Every number on this site shows its source, its date and how much we trust it. If we cannot source it, we do not say it.

  • Honest about the seam

    We say plainly what we do and do not write into your shop software. Today that is nothing: every call reaches you as an email you act on.

  • Anna proposes, people decide

    Every early integration assumes a person can see and correct what Anna did. Full autonomy is earned, shop by shop.

  • Plain English over configuration

    You know your shop, your hours and the services you do. You should never have to learn our words for it.
