AI: Hello, Greenway Motors, this is Alex. How can I help?
Customer: I need an MOT for my Golf. Have you got anything Friday?
AI: I can do Friday at 9am or 1pm. Can I take the registration?
Customer: 9am please. It's AB12 CDE.
AI: You're booked in for Friday at 9am. I'll text you a confirmation.
The workshop is loud and the phone keeps ringing
Garage phones ring most when everyone is under a car. Customers who can't get through book their MOT somewhere else, and messages scribbled on a pad get lost.
The AI receptionist answers every call, takes the registration and what the car needs, books an MOT or service slot, and sends the details to the workshop. Customers ringing for an update can leave a message or be put through.

Choose when it answers
Get a new UK number or forward your existing one. For each part of the day, choose whether your phone rings first, the AI answers straight away, or it picks up after a few rings.
- 3
Get on with your day
Bookings land in your calendar, messages become tasks, and you get a summary and transcript of every call by email or text.
What it does for you
Books MOTs and services
Books into the slots you make available, with the registration, the work needed and the customer's details.
Handles update calls
Customers asking whether their car is ready can leave a message or be put through, so the workshop isn't interrupted.
Reminders
Booking confirmations and reminders go out automatically, so fewer cars don't turn up.
Puts urgent calls through
Set rules for who gets put through. The AI rings you first and tells you who's calling. If you can't take it, the caller goes back to the AI to leave a message.
A summary of every call
Every call becomes a task with the caller's details, what they wanted and the full transcript, sent to you by email or text.
Pay for the calls it takes
The AI runs on pay-as-you-go call credit, so a quiet week costs very little. Top up when you need to.

Can it tell customers our prices?
Yes. Add your MOT and service prices and it quotes them. For repairs it can take the details for you to call back with a quote.
Can customers ask if their car is ready?
It takes a message or puts them through to the workshop, based on your rules.
Can I keep my existing phone number?
Yes. Forward your existing number to HaloTasker, or get a new UK number from us.
