You can't answer the phone with your hands in an engine bay.
A shop full of cars mid-repair doesn't have a free hand for the phone — and every call that goes unanswered is a customer who takes their car, and the job, somewhere else. OneConvo answers, books the appointment, and texts you what they need.
A missed call is a car that gets fixed at the shop down the street
Someone calling about a repair usually needs it done soon, and they're comparing shops as they dial. If the call goes to voicemail, they're not waiting for a callback — they're already calling the next shop.

What OneConvo doesn't do — on purpose.
No fine print later. Here's the honest scope of what automotive get, so there's no surprise after setup.
- OneConvo books appointments and answers questions — it doesn't diagnose a vehicle issue or quote exact repair pricing over the phone.
- It doesn't process payments or hold parts; those still go through your team when the customer arrives.
- For a request outside what it's been trained on, it takes a message and flags it for your team rather than guessing.
- Like any AI system, it can occasionally mishear a make, model, or name — every call is logged with a transcript so you can review and correct it.

A single-bay shop taking under roughly 200 calls a month usually fits the Starter plan. Busier shops with multiple bays typically need Growth or Pro for the extra call minutes.
