Auto repair and specialty shops

Be the auto repair shop AI recommends.

When a driver asks ChatGPT or Gemini for an auto repair shop, it names two or three shops. Askivia finds out why it chose them and implements the improvements that put your shop in contention.

For: Independent auto repair shops: diagnostics, transmissions and specialist makes

What your customers ask

Which auto repair shops in Phoenix are honest about transmission repairs?

AI names two or three businesses like yours. We find out why it chose them, and close the gaps that keep you out.

The questions

What customers ask AI

  • Which auto repair shops in Phoenix are honest about transmission repairs?
  • Best independent BMW mechanic near me
  • Is it worth rebuilding a transmission or replacing it?
  • How much does a check engine light diagnostic cost?
  • Can an independent shop service my car without voiding the warranty?
  • Which shops near me do same-day brake repairs?

The sources

Where AI looks to answer

  • Your website's service, specialty and warranty pages
  • Your Google Business Profile and Google reviews
  • ASE certification and AAA Approved Auto Repair listings
  • Review sites such as Yelp, RepairPal and CARFAX
  • Owner forums and Reddit threads for the makes you specialize in
  • Repair network listings, such as NAPA AutoCare

The work

What we implement

  • A page for each specialty: diagnostics, transmissions, brakes, the makes you know best
  • Honest answers on cost, warranties and repair versus replace
  • Certifications and network memberships written out in text
  • Consistent details across Google, Yelp and repair directories
  • Review requests that mention the car, the problem and the fix

Common questions

Most of our customers are regulars. Why does this matter?

Regulars move, cars change and new drivers arrive. When they ask AI who to trust, being named is how you replace the customers you lose, especially for the specialist work you want more of.

Will this help us compete with dealerships?

Yes. Drivers ask AI whether an independent shop can service their car under warranty, and whether it costs less. Clear answers, with your certifications and the makes you specialize in, put you in that comparison.

How will we know which cars came from AI?

Add “AI assistant” as a referral source in your shop management software and ask at drop-off. The monthly report sets those jobs beside what we observe.

Can we have exclusivity, so you don't also work for another shop in our area?

Yes, as an option. Exclusivity covers a defined service and area, such as transmission repair in your metro area, and is agreed and priced in your proposal. Without it, we may work with other shops, but we never share one client's information with another.
