Bays full. Customers updated. Invoices paid by text.
Stop walking to the phone with greasy hands. Calls are answered, status updates go out by text and customers pay before pick-up.
An auto repair shop stops missing calls by letting an AI service advisor answer when the counter is busy, book the service into an open bay, and text the customer a confirmation. Talos Connect also sends vehicle-ready texts, gets estimates approved by typed signature, and collects payment by text so pick-up takes a minute.

Frequently asked questions
Does it integrate with our shop management system?

Can customers approve additional work by text?
Yes. Send an itemized estimate and the customer approves with a typed signature.
Can the AI quote prices?
It shares the prices you publish for standard services and books diagnostics for anything that needs a look. It does not invent quotes.
