What does an AI office manager do for auto body shops?
RankLadder is the AI office manager for auto body shops. It answers collision estimate calls while your team is masking and sanding, captures the vehicle, the damage, and the insurance details, handles the when-will-it-be-ready status calls, and texts your estimate link.

The inbox
Every conversation. One inbox.
Calls, texts, and website questions from your customers stay in one thread. Your team sees what happened and what comes next without asking anyone to start over.
RankLadder captures the vehicle, what got damaged, and whether it’s an insurance claim, so your estimator calls back already knowing the scope instead of starting the whole conversation over on the phone.
‘Do you work with my insurance’ and ‘do you handle rentals’ get answered straight from your knowledge base, no hold, so the routine collision questions stop pulling your office away from the cars in the shop.
When a customer needs to move a drop-off or push their estimate appointment, RankLadder takes the details and lands them in your inbox to confirm, so a schedule change never turns into a car nobody was expecting.

Questions auto body shops ask before they start.
Can RankLadder capture collision estimate requests?+
Yes. It captures the vehicle, what got hit, whether it’s an insurance claim or out of pocket, and the callback number. The details land in your inbox as a clean summary, so your estimator calls back already knowing the scope of the job.
Can it handle ‘when will my car be ready’ calls?+
Those status calls get taken as a message and dropped in the vehicle’s thread, so you can text an update when the car hits the next stage instead of stopping work to answer. Hours, insurance, and rental questions it answers live from your knowledge base.
Can it answer insurance and rental questions?+
It answers from a knowledge base built from your website and Google profile, covering the insurers you work with, whether you handle rentals, and your general process. When a caller asks something it hasn’t been taught, it logs the question so you can add it.
Can it transfer a call to my estimator when needed?+
Yes. You write transfer rules in plain English, like send a fresh tow-in or a fleet account straight to the shop. The AI briefs the caller, then bridges them to the right person. Starter includes 3 transfer rules; Pro and Scale are unlimited.
Does it answer after hours?+
Yes, on every plan. After you close, the AI keeps answering, captures estimate and drop-off details, and marks anything that needs you. Whatever came in overnight is summarized and waiting in your inbox by morning, so nothing sits forgotten in voicemail.
Do I have to change my shop’s phone number?+
No. You keep the number that’s on your sign, your invoices, and every listing, and forward it to your dedicated RankLadder line. You can unforward it anytime, so you are never locked in and nothing changes about how customers reach you.
