AI social media is overhyped at the macro level and underused at the workflow level. For a NZ auto repair shop, that gap is where the actual ROI lives – and where most of our work happens.

The honest read
Where most auto repair shops engagements actually deliver value.
- Mechanics quote from underneath a car and answer the phone from underneath a car, and one of those always loses.
- Booking, quoting, and parts follow-up are the admin layer that decides how many cars a workshop can turn over in a week.

Questions
FAQ
How long does AI social media take to ship for auto repair shops?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real auto repair shops data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
What's the realistic outcome for auto repair shops?
Posting cadence up 5x, hours spent per week down to one. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI social media into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
