When your sales team is with a customer on the floor, inbound calls go to voicemail — and that lead goes to your competitor. Anchor Co AI has an AI receptionist pick up so you capture every buyer before they dial someone else.
Internet leads go cold fast — auto dealers who respond quickly are far more likely to book the appointment than those who make buyers wait.
Why dealerships lose leads they already paid to generate
A buyer calling about a specific vehicle has already made up their mind to buy. If they get voicemail, they hang up and call the next dealership. That unit sits on your lot another week.
After-hours web leads are some of your hottest. A customer pricing out a trade-in at night is ready to come in tomorrow morning — but only if someone captures them before they move on.
Shoppers spend real time on your inventory pages comparing trims and prices, then leave without asking a question. A chatbot that can answer 'is the black Silverado still available?' keeps them on-site and converts the visit.
The odds of reaching an internet lead drop the longer you wait to respond. Your CRM gets the form submission but the follow-up call happens hours later — by then they've already test-driven somewhere else.
How it works
The call goes unanswered. Without an answer, that lead calls the next dealership. With the AI receptionist on the Front Office plan, the call gets picked up.
It answers the line you forward to it, says it's an AI, asks which vehicle they're interested in, and takes their name and number. The lead is captured before they dial a competitor.
You get an email with their name, number, and what they were asking about. Your team sees a qualified lead — not a cold callback list — when they're free.
Front Office plans
Every plan is $297 to set up, then monthly. Month-to-month, cancel any time. Buy online, fill out one form, and see your preview within 5 business days. No sales call.
What the receptionist doesn't do: it doesn't book appointments, quote prices or connect to calendars or CRMs. It takes the caller's details so you can call back.
Cancelling and refunds:cancel any time and you aren't billed again; there are no partial-month refunds. The setup fee is returned only if you cancel before you submit the intake form. If we don't deliver what the terms describe, tell us within 30 days of the charge and we fix it, or refund the affected charge if we can't. Read the refund policy and plan terms before you buy.

See it before you buy it
No slideshow, no actor. A screen recording of our own assistant handling the two questions every owner asks: what happens to the 9pm call I miss, and will it invent things about my business.
Real answers from our live demo bot — unscripted, recorded on this site.
Visitor: I run an HVAC company. A customer calls at 9pm and I can't pick up — what happens?
Anchor Co AI: Right now? They hit voicemail and you've lost them to whoever picks up first. With our chatbot, they hit your website at 9pm, ask “Do you do emergency service?” or “Are you licensed in my county?” — and get an instant answer. The bot captures their name, number, and address. You wake up to a lead instead of a missed call. That's the whole thing: your customers get answers 24/7, you only deal with the calls that actually need you, and you're not losing jobs to competitors who answer faster. Since you're in HVAC, the bot can handle all the common questions — licensing by county, service area, whether you do emergency calls, minimum job size, how long estimates take. You train it on your website in about 10 minutes, and it goes live in an afternoon. Want to try it? You can start free at anchorcoai.com/signup — no credit card required. Test it on your actual website for 14 days and see if it captures leads you would've missed.
Visitor: Will it make stuff up about my business?
Anchor Co AI: No. The bot only answers from what you've given it — your website content, your FAQs, pricing, service areas, whatever you add. If a question falls outside that (something the bot doesn't know), it's honest about it. Instead of guessing, it says “I don't have that info” and asks for their name and contact details so you can follow up personally. It won't make up licensing claims, pricing, or service details. That's the safeguard. Your bot is only as smart as the information you feed it — which means you stay in control of what it says about your business. Honestly the easiest way to see if it works for your business is to just try it. Free plan, no card. anchorcoai.com/signup
