Stop Losing Riders to Voicemail. Deploy Inbound Voice AI for Dealerships.

Every missed call about that new tourer or used sport bike is a lost sale to your competitor down the street. Our inbound voice AI for dealerships isn't just an answering service; it's a fully integrated member of your team that answers 100% of calls, 24/7/365, and executes tasks directly in your systems.

The Inbound Voice AI Receptionist is not a siloed tool. It functions as the first and most reliable data entry point for your entire operation, writing clean lead and service data directly into your CRM (like DealerSocket) and DMS (like Lightspeed) for your BDC and sales teams to act on.

Never Again Miss a High-Intent Sales or Service Call

The window to capture a high-intent rider is brutally short. When they call about a specific unit they saw online—a new CVO Road Glide or a low-mileage Ducati—and hit your voicemail, they don't leave a message. They call the next dealer. Your current phone system or overwhelmed receptionist is actively leaking gross profit, especially after hours or during the Saturday rush when your floor team is slammed. The IgniteUps AI answers every single call on the first ring, in a natural, conversational tone. It understands model names, trim levels, and even common slang. It can confirm availability, state store hours, provide directions, and, most critically, capture the lead and route it instantly for follow-up—all logged perfectly in your CRM. You close the biggest leak in your sales funnel and ensure every single inbound opportunity is captured.

The Smarter BDC: Reduce Overhead, Not Performance

BDC payroll is one of the biggest line items on your P&L. You pay salaries, benefits, and bonuses for tasks that are repetitive and prone to human error: answering basic questions, routing calls, and booking appointments. The cost-per-call is high, and performance is inconsistent due to turnover, sick days, and training gaps. This is a core challenge of dealership BDC automation that most solutions fail to solve effectively. Our platform absorbs the entire top of the funnel. It handles the high-volume, low-complexity inbound calls, freeing up your skilled BDC agents or salespeople to focus on what they do best: building relationships and closing deals. The AI handles the scheduling and info-gathering, allowing your human team to operate with greater efficiency. You don't replace your team; you arm them with a tool that eliminates tedious work, reduces your operational overhead, and allows you to scale your inbound capacity without adding headcount.

How Our Inbound Voice AI for Dealerships Actually Executes

This isn't a simple IVR or a dumb chatbot ported to voice. This is a purpose-built automotive AI phone agent trained on hundreds of thousands of real dealership interactions. It integrates directly with your telephony, answering unlimited concurrent calls so no rider ever gets a busy signal. It uses natural language understanding (NLU) to parse intent: Is the customer asking for the service department? Do they want to know if you have a specific exhaust kit in stock? Do they want to schedule a test ride? Based on that intent, the AI executes a specific workflow. It can check your service schedule via DMS integration and book a service appointment in an open slot. It can create a new customer profile in your CRM with contact info and the bike of interest. For complex inquiries it can't handle, like a detailed trade-in negotiation, it performs a seamless, intelligent handoff to the correct person or department, providing them with the context of the conversation so the customer never has to repeat themselves.

Seamless Integration to Write Clean Data Into Your CRM/DMS

Bad data kills deals and attribution. An incorrectly logged name or a missed follow-up task from a phone call that was never entered into the CRM means lost opportunity and a broken sales process. Our Inbound Voice AI Receptionist solves this at the source by acting as a perfect, tireless data entry clerk. Every single call is transcribed, summarized, and logged automatically against the appropriate customer record in your system. We provide direct, API-level integrations with major powersports CRMs and DMS platforms including Lightspeed, DealerSocket, VinSolutions, and more. When our AI books a service appointment, it appears directly on your service drive's schedule. When it captures a new sales lead, it creates an opportunity and assigns a task to the appropriate salesperson according to your dealership's rules of engagement. This ensures 100% data fidelity, accurate attribution for your marketing spend, and a complete history of every customer interaction.

Elevate Your Fixed Ops and Customer Satisfaction (CSI)

Your service drive is a critical profit center, but it's also a frequent source of customer frustration due to phone bottlenecks. Riders trying to book a simple oil change or tire swap get stuck on hold, transferred incorrectly, or sent to a full voicemail box. This friction directly impacts your CSI scores and repeat business. Providing a competent AI receptionist for dealers is the fastest way to solve this operational drag. The IgniteUps AI streamlines your entire fixed ops front-end. It can answer the most common service questions, from operating hours to the cost of a 10k-mile service. It can look up a customer's service history, book them into the next available slot that matches their request, and send an automated confirmation. This process not only frees up your service advisors to deal with customers at the counter but provides a consistently professional and efficient experience that riders will appreciate, driving loyalty and positive reviews.

Frequently asked questions

Can the AI really understand motorcycle models, parts, and rider slang?

Yes. Our models are specifically trained on powersports terminology, from OEM model names and engine sizes to common aftermarket parts and service jobs. It understands the difference between a 'Stage 1 kit' and a '1k service' and responds appropriately.

What happens if a caller has a question the AI can't answer?

The system is designed for intelligent escalation. If the AI detects a complex query, customer frustration, or a specific keyword you've designated (e.g., 'speak to a manager'), it instantly routes the call to a pre-determined human agent or department, providing a full transcript of the conversation so your team has context.

How difficult is the integration with our current CRM?

The process is managed by our team and requires minimal effort from your staff. We use secure, pre-built API connectors for most major CRMs and DMSs. For you, it's typically just a matter of authorizing the connection. We handle the rest to ensure data flows correctly from day one.

Can it actually book appointments directly into my service calendar?

Absolutely. This is a core function. Through direct DMS integration, the AI reads your service advisors' real-time availability and writes confirmed appointments directly into the schedule, adhering to the rules you set for job duration and technician skill.

We have multiple rooftops. Can the AI handle different stores with different rules?

Yes. The platform is built for dealer groups. You can manage all your locations from a single dashboard, with distinct call flows, business hours, staff directories, and branding for each rooftop, while maintaining global reporting and analytics.

How is this priced? Is it another per-user seat license?

No, it's not a per-user license, which we believe is a broken model. Pricing is a transparent monthly subscription based on your dealership's inbound call volume. This allows you to have unlimited 'AI capacity' without being penalized for growing your business.
