ABOUT AUTO SHOP AGENTS
BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVED IT.
WE DIDN'T LEARN THIS BUSINESS FROM A BOARDROOM.
Auto Shop Agents was founded by tire and automotive professionals who have spent decades operating stores, coaching service advisors, improving phone performance, and helping businesses grow.
Everything we build is designed around one simple philosophy:
Technology should make people better—not replace them.
OUR MISSION
HELP EVERY SHOP ANSWER MORE CALLS. WIN MORE CUSTOMERS.
BUILD BETTER ADVISORS.
TECHNOLOGY SHOULD NEVER REPLACE GREAT PEOPLE.
IT SHOULD HELP THEM BECOME EVEN BETTER.
Our mission is to give every tire and auto shop—from a single independent location to a nationwide enterprise—the same level of insight, coaching, and automation once reserved for massive organizations.
OUR STORY
THE DATA WAS THERE.
WE JUST MADE IT VISIBLE.
For years, tire and auto operators have known that phone conversations directly impact revenue.
But most shops could only measure what happened after the conversation—whether an appointment was booked, whether the car showed up, and what was ultimately sold.
The conversation itself was largely invisible.
How often are advisors actually asking for the appointment?
How many tire quotes are being lost?
How often are financing options offered?
Which stores are closing—and which are leaking revenue?
What are customers asking for that advisors aren't converting?
WE BUILT AUTO SHOP AGENTS TO ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS.
We combine Conversation Intelligence, Daily Coaching, AI Phone Agents, and Advisor Practice Programs into one platform that helps shops improve the conversations that drive revenue.
Because every better conversation leads to a better business.
