AI assistant for tyre centres: change appointments, tyre sizes and storage without phone stress

During the tyre-change season, everyone calls at once. Slimbot schedules change appointments in your diary, asks for registration number and tyre size, and adds storage questions to the customer card, so the desk doesn't get jammed.

Good morning, I'd like to have my winter tyres fitted. Is that possible this week?

Good morning! I'd be happy to check. What's your registration number, and are the tyres already in storage with us or will you bring them?

Less back-and-forth messaging, fewer no-shows.

Without Slimbot

  • Message back and forth about appointments until a time suits
  • No-shows because nobody sends a reminder
  • Calendar, messages and customer data in three places

With Slimbot

  • Customers request an appointment via chat, WhatsApp or your site
  • Confirmation and reminder from your own number
  • Appointment, conversation and customer card in one overview
In practice

What comes into tyre centres — and what Slimbot does

  1. "Can I have my tyres changed next week?"

    The assistant asks for the registration number and preferred day and suggests a free slot from your diary.

  2. "Which tyre fits my car?"

    Registration number or a photo of the sidewall is requested; the fitter or you determine the advice.

  3. "Are my tyres still with you?"

    The conversation appears on the customer card; you check your storage and reply.

  4. "Do you have 4 winter tyres in stock?"

    The draft reply asks for size and brand preference; you check your stock and confirm.

  5. "My tyre is flat, can I come in?"

    The assistant asks for the registration number and when the customer can come; you decide on urgency.
