Description
The Service Appointment Scheduler is a conversational AI agent designed for automotive dealerships and service centers to automate their service department scheduling process. This intelligent assistant handles appointment requests around the clock, collecting vehicle information, identifying service needs, checking warranty status, and booking appointments at convenient times.

The agent classifies service requests by type (maintenance, repair, recall, warranty work), collects vehicle details including VIN for accurate service history lookup, estimates service duration and costs, and routes appointments to the appropriate service advisor. With seamless DMS and calendar integration, every appointment is automatically confirmed and synced.

Perfect for car dealerships, independent service centers, and auto repair shops looking to reduce phone call volume, eliminate scheduling bottlenecks, and provide customers with convenient 24/7 booking capabilities. The assistant maintains a professional, helpful tone while efficiently moving customers through the scheduling process—even capturing early morning or late-night requests that would otherwise be lost.
