Your AI team

Four agents that already know your world.

Same Brilliant AI agents, niche-tuned playbooks. They speak your trade, not generic CRM-speak.

cam

Cam (auto) - MOT recall personaliser

MOT due 25 Aug for Mr Hassan's Audi A4. Cam knows he books last-minute (history: avg 9 days before due), so drafts the 14-day-out reminder + 'this slot Tue afternoon is wide open' rather than the 60-day-out generic.

plate

Plate - DVSA cross-reference

Mr Patel's Civic: GHL has MOT-due as 14 Sept; DVSA database says 21 Aug. Plate flags the mismatch + recommends fix + holds the recall until owner confirms.

crate

Crate - multi-supplier parts negotiator

Brake-pad set for an X5: Crate pulls 4 suppliers, compares price + delivery + warranty + the supplier's historical defect rate from the workshop's repair log, recommends Supplier B + a back-up if delivery slips.

report_writer

Memo writes the monthly MOT report

MOT retention 74% (target 82%). Cam's cluster: 3-5y-old cars drift; >10y-old cars convert. Recommends a 'check-up + MOT bundle' offer at 3-year-old mark to lock the relationship.

They sound like this

Real conversations, in your tone of voice.

Two examples your agents handle out of the box. Tone shifts when we tune it for your specific business.

MOT's coming up - when can I get in? Customer · inbound
I see the Audi's MOT due 25 Aug. Cam's holding Tue 12th afternoon for you (your usual day) or Thu 14th morning. ~45 min standard MOT, £54.85. Plate's also flagged your handbrake adjustment was advisory last MOT - want me to add a 30-min check while you wait? £35 if it needs doing. Agent · drafted, awaiting your sign-off
Why's the quote for the brake job £380 when I got £290 from someone else? Customer · inbound
Honest answer: Crate's quote uses Brembo pads + Bosch discs (OE-spec for the X5, 60-80k km lifespan); the £290 quote probably has generic-fit (typical 30-40k km lifespan, no warranty). Per year over the life, ours is £55, theirs is £73. Want a no-frills alt quote so you can see the spec difference next to the price? Agent · drafted, awaiting your sign-off

Top niche workflows

  • MOT Reminder Pipeline (60 / 30 / 14 / 7 day cadence) MOT is the recurring revenue spine of an independent garage — and the most-leaked one. Customers forget; the DVSA's free text reminder is generic and arrives once; competitors send 4-touch sequences. An owner who only sends "MOT due next mo
  • Annual + Mileage-Based Service Recall Cadence Customers who serviced 11 months ago are due now + go wherever they see an ad first. Independent garages lose these to dealerships + chains who run aggressive recall programmes. The garage knows when each car is due (service-interval data o
  • Price-Shopper vs Urgent-Breakdown Triage Independent garages drown in "how much for a clutch?" calls from buyers who'll go wherever is cheapest, while genuine breakdown customers (high willingness-to-pay, low price sensitivity, want it fixed today) sit in the same queue. The garag
  • Local Fleet + Van-Operator Contract Hunter Independent garages live off retail walk-ins + leave fleet contracts (taxi firms, courier vans, local trades with 3+ vehicles, council subcontractors) on the table - even though a single 5-van plumber contract is worth more than 40 retail s
  • In-Service Findings Upsell Comms Mechanics find advisory work during MOT + service (worn brake pads, leaky shock, perished bushes) but the customer is at work + the technician has 5 minutes to call. Half the time the customer says "just do the MOT" without seeing the evide

13 specialists, auto repair shops + garages-only

A thinking team - built for auto repair shops + garages.

These aren't generic 'send a reminder' workflows. They model, recommend, optimise, and tell you what to do. One creative thing each, that no off-the-shelf automation tool can do for you.

  • Cam MOT pipeline + service-work conversion reports to Marnie

    Tracks every customer's MOT expiry; 60/30/14 day taper with the personalised hook (last year's advisories + the service due alongside); converts MOT bookings into service-work where the data justifies it.

    Weekly Next 30 days MOTs: 12 to invite + 5 high-likelihood service conversions + the per-customer named hook.
    Advises MOT invite + service upsell hook
    Ingenuity Reads LAST-YEAR ADVISORIES into the reminder ('your brake pads were marginal last MOT - want me to check now?') - generic MOT reminders are cold + ignored.
  • Plate DVSA testing-station compliance keeper reports to Clara

    Continuously audits MOT testing discipline (test duration outliers, defect-rate vs DVSA norm, NT/RFR ratios) + flags any pattern that would trigger a disciplinary visit BEFORE DVSA arrives.

    Weekly Compliance score this week + 1-2 testers whose pattern needs a private coaching note + next DVSA audit prep.
    Advises tester coaching + audit prep
    Ingenuity Reads test-DURATION distributions per tester - the tester who clears MOTs in <30 min is a disciplinary letter waiting to happen; generic compliance dashboards miss the speed signal.
  • Crate Parts-supplier negotiation + warranty tracker reports to Faye

    Tracks every supplier order: price, lead-time, defect rate, warranty-claim outcome; drafts the per-supplier monthly review + the named negotiation lever to use next renewal.

    Weekly Supplier scorecard this week + 1 renewal opportunity + the named negotiation lever.
    Advises supplier review + renegotiation lever
    Ingenuity Cross-references SUPPLIER warranty-claim acceptance rate vs price-quoted-cheapest - some suppliers are loss-leaders that cost the shop more in returns than they save up front; generic AP tracking sees only price.
  • Loaner Courtesy-car rota optimiser reports to Otis

    Models the courtesy-car fleet utilisation + per-vehicle wear + insurance + the customer-loyalty value of the loan; flags when to add / retire / re-route a car.

    Weekly Fleet utilisation % this week + the 2 days over/under-booked + tomorrow's rota.
    Advises courtesy-car rota + fleet sizing
    Ingenuity Models the per-CUSTOMER value of the courtesy car - the fleet customer who books 4 services/year deserves the car; the one-off MOT doesn't; generic fleet scheduling FIFOs everyone.
  • Volt EV + hybrid upskilling pacer reports to Julian

    Tracks the local EV / hybrid car-park share + the shop's EV-trained technician count + the IMI Level 3 EV certification pipeline; flags when the next technician needs the next module + when to start marketing EV servicing in local postcodes.

    Weekly EV-pipeline progress + 1 marketing-postcode to start + the next training milestone.
    Advises EV training milestone + EV-marketing pivot
    Ingenuity Reads DVLA registration data per postcode - knows when the EV-share crosses 15% (the marketing inflection point); generic upskilling has no data-driven trigger.
  • Note Customer-present diagnostic narration reports to Julian

    Captures the technician's voice-note walkthrough of the diagnostic findings; auto-builds the customer-facing video / report with the findings + recommended work + transparent why - the close rate on customer-present narration is 2x generic 'we found these issues' lists.

    Weekly Narration-driven approvals this week + 2 technicians whose narrations close better than peers (coaching library).
    Advises narration-driven approval close
    Ingenuity Auto-classifies each finding by SAFETY-CRITICAL / RELIABILITY / COSMETIC - generic 'we found 7 issues' is overwhelming; the priority frame is the close.
  • Bay Workshop bay load-balancer reports to Otis

    Models the day's bookings by job type + technician skill + bay availability + parts-on-hand; reshuffles the diary to maximise bay throughput without breaking customer SLAs.

    Weekly Bay utilisation this week + the 2 days that lost the most hours + tomorrow's optimal sequence.
    Advises bay-loading + diary reshuffle
    Ingenuity Carries PARTS-ARRIVAL forecast (the brake pads landing at 11am unblocks bay 3) - generic diary tools schedule by time slot, not by parts-state.
  • Block Fleet + commercial account hunter reports to Julian

    Identifies local taxi firms, delivery operators, local-authority fleets + small-business van fleets; drafts the per-fleet pitch with the per-customer fleet pain hook.

    Weekly 3 named fleet targets this quarter + the per-target contact + the opener.
    Advises fleet account pitch
    Ingenuity Reads OPERATOR LICENCES (taxi + private hire + HGV registers) for fresh local licensees - they're buying everything; generic B2B targets all fleets.
  • Recall Manufacturer warranty + recall capture reports to Marnie

    Cross-references the customer base against active manufacturer recalls + warranty bulletins; drafts the per-customer 'your vehicle has an open recall' outreach (paid by the manufacturer).

    Weekly Open recalls touching our customer base this week + 5 names to invite + the manufacturer reimbursement rate per.
    Advises recall capture invite
    Ingenuity Cross-checks RECALL DATABASES against our customer VINs - generic shops let main dealers capture the manufacturer-paid recall work.
  • Tally Cashflow + late-payer predictor reports to Faye

    Per-customer payment-history overlay; flags new jobs matching late-payer signatures (especially private-hire drivers + multi-write-off insurance jobs); proposes deposit / on-collection rule per.

    Weekly Top 3 late-payer-risk jobs + the named payment-terms tweak per.
    Advises payment-terms tweak per job
    Ingenuity Reads job-START to job-COLLECTION lag history - customers who delay collection delay payment 75% of the time.
  • Mirror Two-way review + reputation engine reports to Marnie

    Drafts customer review request AND a private technician-coaching note from the same job-completion signal; tracks per-technician review velocity.

    Weekly Reviews collected this week + 2 technician coaching notes; next week's coaching focus.
    Advises review + technician coaching pair
    Ingenuity Closes the loop BOTH ways - generic review tools only do the outbound half.
  • Pin Local SEO + GBP + service-area maps reports to Marnie

    Per-service-area Google Business Profile freshness + service-area maps + per-vehicle-brand listing health (BMW-specialist vs all-makes); drafts the per-postcode service-area expansion plan.

    Weekly GBP updates this week + 1 postcode where competitor took the top spot + the named response.
    Advises GBP + service-area expansion
    Ingenuity Knows BRAND-SPECIALIST listings rank for branded queries ('Audi specialist near me') that all-makes listings miss - generic SEO doesn't model the brand-specialism dimension.
  • Tread Tyre + seasonal-window opportunity catcher reports to Marnie

    Cross-references customer service history with tyre-age + winter / summer changeover windows + weather forecast; drafts the per-customer tyre + seasonal-prep outreach.

    Weekly Top 10 tyre / seasonal-prep candidates this week + the per-customer hook.
    Advises tyre + seasonal-prep outreach
    Ingenuity Predicts TYRE-AGE-AT-MOT-FAILURE per make + driving style - generic 'time for new tyres' blasts ignore the actual wear curve.
