AI receptionist for Dutch small businesses
The garage in Zwolle had two mechanics, one phone on the workshop wall, and an APK season in which that phone rang most while both of them were under a car. The AI receptionist answers it now, finds the customer by number plate in the garage's planning system, offers the APK or service slots that are actually free that week, books the one the customer picks and texts the confirmation, and rings them the day before to remind them to bring the key for the wheel locks. Customers who ring about a noise the car has started making are put through to whichever mechanic is not lying under something. The owner found out how many calls he had been missing when the first month of transcripts landed, and stopped reading at forty.
