The problem
You can't answer the phone from under a car on the ramp
Running a garage means your hands are full from 8am to 6pm. You're under cars, using air tools, running diagnostics. The phone rings and you either ignore it or stop mid-job to answer with greasy hands. During MOT season, the calls stack up even faster. The driver whose car will not start is not going to leave a message and hope you call back.

- MOT season booking surges can double your call volume overnight
- A full-time receptionist costs €1,800+/month for a small independent garage

How Garages Use Jodie
Breakdown Call
The situation: A driver calls because their car will not start in a supermarket car park. They need to know if you can look at it today and how much a diagnostic costs.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, asks for the make, model, and what happened when they tried to start it. You get a text with the details so you can call back with availability or arrange a recovery.
Under a Car on the Ramp
The situation: You're lying on a creeper underneath a car replacing brake pads when the workshop phone rings with a new enquiry.
Jodie handles it: Jodie takes the call, gets the vehicle details and the issue, and sends you a text. You finish the brake job safely and check the message when you slide out.
MOT and Service Booking
The situation: A customer calls wanting to book their car in for an MOT and full service. Your diary is getting full for the week and you are up to your elbows in a timing belt job.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, gets the vehicle registration, mileage, and preferred dates. You get the booking request by text and can slot them in when you check your diary.
After-Hours Fleet Call
The situation: A local fleet manager calls at 7pm because one of their delivery vans has a warning light on the dashboard and they need it looked at before the morning run.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, gets the van registration, the warning light description, and the fleet manager's contact number. The message is waiting for you so you can arrange a first-thing slot.
The next breakdown call is going to a garage that answers.
Jodie handles unlimited calls at once. Set her up in under 2 minutes, no contracts.
