Your hands are in an engine and the phone is ringing. An Ai receptionist trained on your shop answers every call, books the bay, and texts you the callback number, so the customer never dials the next shop on US 2.
Evergreen is the working garage of the Flathead Valley. Along the US 2 corridor between Kalispell and the river, the bays stay full: brake jobs, transmissions, lift kits, trailer axles, RV repairs before a family heads up toward Glacier. The work is there. The problem is the phone. A shop with two sets of hands cannot torque a head bolt and answer a what-does-it-cost call at the same time, and around here the caller who hits voicemail simply calls the next shop down the road. That is a repair order gone, not because your work slipped, but because nobody picked up.
The season makes it worse. The first hard cold snap brings a wave of dead batteries and no-start mornings. Fall brings the studded tire changeover rush, spring brings it back the other way, and summer stacks travelers with check-engine lights on their way to the park on top of your regular customers. Those surge weeks are exactly when the phone rings most and exactly when nobody in the shop has a free hand. An Ai receptionist fixes the math: it answers on the first ring, every time, at 7 a.m. and at 10 p.m., on the Saturday of the Show N’ Shine when half the valley is walking rows of classics at Conlin’s, and on the February morning when it is ten below and the calls will not stop.
This is not a robot menu that makes people press 3. It talks like your front counter on its best day. We build it on your shop: your services, your hours, your drop-off rules, the makes you work on and the ones you send elsewhere. You approve exactly how it sounds before it ever takes a real call. Want to hear one working? Call the number in the footer and our own Ai answers. Then picture it knowing your shop instead.
Nights, weekends, lunch rush, and the middle of a brake job. No Evergreen caller lands in voicemail again.
Name, vehicle, the problem in the customer’s own words, and a drop-off time, placed on your schedule.
Oil changes, tire changeovers, diagnostic fees. It quotes only what you told it to quote, nothing more.
Every caller leaves a number and a reason. The message hits your phone by text within seconds.
Separates a ready-to-book customer from a parts-price shopper, so interruptions actually earn their keep.
The same agent answers chat questions on your site, trained on the same services and prices.
Honest is the house rule, so here it is. The Ai will not diagnose a knock over the phone, quote a job that needs eyes on the vehicle, or order your parts. It does not replace the judgment of the person holding the wrench, and it will not pretend to. What it does is protect that person’s time: it catches the call, gathers what you need to know, books what can be booked, and hands you the rest in a tidy message. When a question is beyond it, it says so plainly and gets the customer’s number instead of guessing. You review and approve everything it is allowed to say before it goes live.
Pricing is simple and comes straight from our published packages. The Pilot is $249 one time for one in-depth Ai agent with an extremely fast turnaround, and your first agent add-on is included. If you want us to host and manage it after setup, that is an optional $99 a month. Bigger shops that want call answering plus bookings and lead capture together usually look at Growth at $1,249 setup and $749 a month. Either way it starts the same: a free basic demo built on your shop before you pay anything.

Yes. It collects the caller’s name, vehicle, what is wrong, and when they can drop it off, then books the slot and sends you the details by text or email. You stay in control of how many bays and hours it can fill.
It says so honestly, takes a clean message with a callback number, and sends it straight to you. It never invents a price or promises a repair you have not approved. You decide what it is allowed to say.
Free basic demo built on your actual shop, always before any payment. We are local, so you can also sit down with Hans in person anywhere in the Flathead Valley, no pressure at all.
