Use AI to draft quick customer approval requests when you find extra repairs mid-job.
When you're halfway through a job and discover something else that needs fixing, you need customer approval fast. Writing a clear text or email on the spot slows you down and pulls you away from the work. Instead, give AI a quick description of what you found and let it draft a customer-friendly approval request in seconds. You can send it as-is or tweak it slightly, then get back under the hood. This keeps the job moving and the customer informed without losing momentum. It's especially handy when you're juggling multiple vehicles and need to fire off several approval requests in a row without overthinking the wording each time.

Here's what I found: [front brake pads are at 10%, rotors are warped, recommend replacing both]. Include an estimated cost of $320 for parts and labor. Keep it simple and helpful.”
