It reads the request as the client wrote or said it, in their own words, and works out what work it means.
AI estimate
AI estimate: the client's words become operations from your own nomenclature
The client says “full service and the brakes squeak”. The AI reads it and proposes the labour operations you already have in your nomenclature, with your times and your prices — the advisor checks and keeps what fits.
- Gearbox removal / refit
- 4h 30m
- Clutch kit replacement
- 1h 20m
- Road test and check
- 30m
Normed labour 6h 20m
What it does
The AI reads the client's request and estimates the operations, parts and prices from your nomenclature — in the planner and on the work order.
It proposes only operations registered in your nomenclature, with the time and price you set for that car — never an invented line.
What it does not find in the nomenclature it says so, and you can propose it for the nomenclature on the spot.
The advisor decides: every proposed operation can be kept, removed or completed before it reaches the client order.
What's included
- The client's request turned into a list of operations, each with its reason and how sure the AI is.
- Operations, normed times and prices taken from your nomenclature, for the client's car.
- The parts each operation needs, and the service bundles that cover the request.
- Questions to ask the client when the request is too vague to estimate.
- The same estimate on a new appointment, on a new client order and for extra work on an open work order.
- A record of every estimate: what was asked, what was proposed and what the advisor kept.
