  • Services booked by job length
  • Make, model and symptoms recorded
  • No diagnosis over the phone

The difference

More cars in the bays, fewer missed calls.

Workshop phones ring all day with bookings and "is my car ready" questions. Miya handles both.

Without RingOut

  • Calls missed while everyone is in the pit
  • Car owners book at the next workshop
  • Symptoms explained twice on a call back
  • Is it ready questions interrupt the work
  • Quote requests arrive without car details

With RingOut

  • All calls picked up while the hoist is busy
  • Services booked into free bay time
  • Make, model and symptoms recorded first time
  • Pick-up questions turned into messages
  • Quote requests arrive complete

How calls are handled

Every workshop call goes the right way.

Miya books work, takes quote and pick-up messages, and puts safety first.

Passing callers live to the service desk is still to come. Until then, messages for the desk show in the dashboard as each call ends.

A logbook service, a brake noise and smoke under the bonnet.

Smoke from under the bonnet

A driver calls while pulled over.

FAQ

AI receptionist for mechanics FAQs.

What does an AI receptionist for mechanics do?

It answers your workshop phone while you are on the tools, books logbook services, repairs and roadworthy inspections by job length, records the make, model, rego, kilometres and symptoms, and turns quote and pick-up questions into clear messages for the service desk.

Will it diagnose a car over the phone?

It will not. Miya notes what the owner describes, such as a noise, a warning light or poor running, but never says what the fault is or whether the car is safe to drive. She books an inspection so a mechanic can diagnose it properly and quote before any work starts.

Can it book roadworthy inspections?

Yes, using the wording for your state that you provide, such as a roadworthy certificate, pink slip or safety certificate. Miya books the inspection, explains the fee you have set and records the vehicle details, while repair quotes stay with your team.

How does it handle is my car ready calls?

Miya records the owner and rego and sends a message to your service desk, so nobody stops work to check. She can also explain your pick-up hours and after-hours key drop rules from your notes, which answers many of these calls on the spot.

Does it work with workshop management software?

Not yet. Jobs land in your Google Calendar or Calendly diary, and RingOut saves a note of every call with the car details and symptoms, which slots straight onto a job card in your workshop software. That way the mechanic sees the owner's own description before the car arrives.

How much does an AI receptionist for mechanics cost?

Workshops with one bay often begin on Starter, priced at $49 monthly for 60 minutes. Bigger multi-bay shops mostly use the $149 Growth plan, which adds call recordings and 250 minutes. Prices are AUD with GST on top, setup costs nothing and you can stop at any time.
