The leak

The calls you miss become someone else's customer.

Your team can't answer every call — the rush, the busy days, after hours. And callers don't leave voicemails. They call the next shop or lot and book with whoever picks up.

📵 Without TorQi
Call comes in while your staff are busy
Rings out — straight to voicemail

You pay to make that phone ring. Missing the call hands the opportunity to the competition.

  • Fix what breaks
  • Keep it updated

TorQi does all of it:

  • Designs the call flow

Other tools give you software to configure. TorQi gives you a managed automotive call system.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

What does TorQi do?
It's a fully managed AI receptionist for automotive businesses — it answers your overflow and after-hours calls, captures the appointment or buyer need, routes urgent calls, and sends summaries.
Is TorQi for repair shops or dealerships?
Both. We have a dedicated setup for busy repair shops and one for independent dealers — pick your business above and we'll show you the right fit.
Do I need to configure the AI?
No. You don't configure TorQi — we design, build, test, launch, monitor, and tune it for you.
Does TorQi replace my staff?
No. It backs up your team on the calls they can't grab; it doesn't replace your advisors or salespeople.
Can it book appointments?
It captures the appointment request and routes it, and can book directly when your approved scheduling setup supports it.
Can it integrate with my systems?
It works alongside common repair and dealer systems and can hand off summaries by email, SMS, dashboard, or CRM. Deeper integrations can be scoped.
Can it work without integration?
Yes — it can send summaries by email or SMS. No integration required to start.
Can it handle Spanish?
Yes, depending on setup — we configure and test it for your business.
Does it diagnose vehicles or approve financing?
No. It captures the need and routes it — diagnosis and credit decisions stay with your team.
How fast can we launch?
Quickly, once we have your details and approved call rules. We test the flow before it goes live rather than rushing it.
Which page should I visit?
Repair shop → Auto Repair. Used-car lot, BHPH, or dealer group → Independent Dealers.
How is this different from an answering service?
An answering service takes a message. TorQi runs your approved intake, captures the opportunity, routes the urgent ones, and reports back — fully managed, around the clock.

Whether you run a busy repair shop or an independent dealership, TorQi helps your team capture the calls they can't grab — fully managed by us.

Every Missed Call Is a Missed RO.

TorQi Makes Sure That Never Happens.

When your advisor is quoting brakes, a tech is asking about parts, and a walk-in just hit the counter — the phone rings again. If it goes to voicemail, that job usually goes somewhere else.

While your team is busy on the floor, TorQi is answering calls, booking jobs, and updating your system in the background.

TorQi is the fully managed AI voice agent built specifically for

Auto Repair Shops.

You don’t lose jobs because you’re bad at fixing cars.

That second or third call is often a new customer.

If it hits voicemail, they hang up and call the next shop on Google.

That’s not a marketing issue .

It’s an intake bottleneck.

TorQi fixes the intake layer of your business.

You lose them because you’re busy
fixing cars

Advisors juggling phones and counter traffic

Techs interrupting mid-call

Parts on hold

Tow-ins arriving unexpectedly

Another call coming in

Other AI Platforms Give You a Tool. We Give You a Team.

Every AI voice company in auto repair sells you software and expects you to figure it out. Write your own scripts. Connect your own integrations. Monitor your own calls. Fix your own problems. That's not what shop owners need.

TorQi is a fully managed service. Here's what that actually means:

What other platforms expect
you to do

Write and edit your own call scripts

Configure integrations with your SMS/calendar

Monitor call quality and fix issues

Update the system when your shop changes

Troubleshoot when something breaks

Train your team on how to use the platform

What TorQi does
for you

We write every script based on your shop's services, tone, and workflow

We connect everything and test it before launch

We review calls weekly and optimize proactively

Tell us what changed — we update it within 24 hours

We monitor 24/7 and fix issues before you notice them

There's nothing for your team to learn — it just runs

Your agent sounds like your shop. It operates like your shop. And you never have to touch it.
