The Problem, In One Screen
Illustration of how AI assistants answer — not a real result. Run the free scan to see actual answers for your business.
Car owners don’t stop at “who’s good.” They ask AI about your pricing, whether you’re honest, how you compare to the dealer, what a brake job should cost — and AI answers from whatever it can find.
Across 6.8 million AI citations analyzed, 86% of the sources AI cites about businesses are ones the business already controls — its website, listings, and data. For auto repair shops, the answer AI gives is built from sources you can fix today.

Where AI Reads About Your Shop
For auto repair queries, AI pulls from review platforms, certification records, and shop data — including sources most shops never think about, like ASE certification databases and Carfax service listings. Your data needs to be present, accurate, and consistent across all of them — and structured on your own site so AI can quote it.
The Work, For Auto Repair
A tracked panel of real car-owner questions — by service, urgency, and neighborhood ("mechanic near me," "brake repair cost," "honest auto shop in [city]") — tested monthly across five AI systems from a day-one baseline.
Service pages rebuilt so AI can read and quote them: direct answers on brake jobs, oil changes, timing belts, diagnostics, pricing transparency, and warranty policies — the questions car owners ask AI before they ever call you.
AutoRepair business, Service, FAQ, and service-area schema written and maintained, so AI parses your trade, services, and coverage without ambiguity.
Fact-dense content refreshes on the jobs that drive your revenue — brake service, transmission work, check-engine diagnostics, pre-purchase inspections — built as reference material AI can cite, not blog filler.
Your listings corrected and consistent across Google Business Profile, Yelp, BBB, RepairPal, Carfax, and every source AI reads. Plus something nobody else can offer: a TRUSTRECORD — an independently verified record of your shop’s operating history (jobs completed, repeat customer rate, years operating, ASE certification standing), published in a format AI can cite as proof.
Monthly re-testing of your car-owner question panel. Quarterly reports: what AI said about your shop then, what it says now, which sources it cites, and AI referral traffic in your own analytics.

Questions
Yes. Dealers win on brand recognition, but AI systems increasingly favor the specific, verifiable local answer: documented job history, ASE certifications, transparent pricing, real customer patterns. An independent shop with clean, structured data regularly appears ahead of a dealership service department that has none. The scan shows where you stand today.
Yes — wrong specialties, missing ASE certifications, outdated hours, services you no longer offer or new ones AI doesn’t know about. These errors trace to the sources AI reads. We correct those sources, publish authoritative data, and re-test monthly to confirm the record stays fixed.
High-trust, researched decisions — brake work, transmission repairs, timing belt replacements, pre-purchase inspections — where car owners ask AI multiple questions before choosing a shop. Urgent queries matter too: when AI names one shop for “check engine light on, who should I take it to,” that call goes to them.
One component of our Data & Authority work: an independently verified record of your shop’s operating history, published where AI systems can cite it. Verification is computed independently; our team can’t edit verified metrics.
No — one auto repair shop per market. Winning the “who’s better” comparisons AI answers can’t be done for two competitors at once. When you sign, your market’s slot is yours for as long as you’re a client.
No, and nobody honestly can. We guarantee the work and the measurement — a tracked panel of car-owner questions, tested monthly, reported quarterly in your own numbers.
