Answer "Is my car ready?" automatically
Customers message to book a service, ask for a rough price or check on their car. Spaces connects the account they write to, so an AI agent can reply in the same chat.
Can you fit me in for an oil change this week?
Is my car ready yet?
Spaces lets auto repair shops give an AI agent the messaging account their customers already write to. The agent reads each new message, replies in the same chat with the information you give it, and hands anything unusual to a person. Customers start the conversation. Plans from $19 a month.

- Maya R.Can you fit me in for an oil change this week?
- Tom B.Is my car ready yet?

From your customer to your agent, and back.
How does an AI agent fit auto repair shops?
Repair shops get many status and booking questions from existing customers. An agent connected to your job system can answer status questions. For quotes and diagnoses, it should collect details and hand over to a mechanic.
What can the AI agent do?
With Spaces, your AI agent can see new chats as they arrive (by webhook or by checking unread chats), read the conversation, and reply in the same chat. It can look up a sender's profile and download attachments such as photos the customer sent. You decide what the agent knows and when it hands over to a person. That logic lives in your agent, not in Spaces. Spaces paces every send for each account and makes every send safe to retry.
Who can the agent message?
Spaces is for conversations your customers start, and for people who already know you and expect to hear from you. Spaces' Terms rule out bulk unsolicited messages, bought or scraped contact lists, and cold outreach at scale. If someone asks you to stop, stop messaging them. Your agent should honour that straight away. Keep a record of who has opted in to hear from you, and of anyone who has opted out. Follow each platform's rules and the laws where you and your customers are.

Questions, answered.
01Should the agent give repair quotes?
We suggest your agent collects details and photos and passes quotes to staff rather than committing to a price.
02Can we send service reminders?
To customers who expect them, for example because they asked for reminders. Not for unsolicited campaigns.
03What is an AI agent for auto repair shops?
An AI agent for auto repair shops is software, such as Claude, Grok or your own code, that reads the messages customers send your business and replies in the same chat. Spaces gives that agent an API key and an MCP server for the messaging account your customers already use, so it can answer routine questions and hand the rest to your team.
04How do auto repair shops set up an AI agent to answer customer messages?
Sign up for Spaces with your email, add a card at checkout, connect the account your customers already message, then give your AI agent the API key or the MCP server. Your agent can do these steps for you. Most setups take a few minutes.
05Is it safe to let an AI agent reply to customers of auto repair shops?
You stay in control. Spaces enforces per-account limits and pacing for every key, makes every send safe to retry, and lets you pause or revoke a key at any time. You decide in your agent which questions it answers and when it hands over to a person, and a read-only key lets it read without sending.
06Can I use Spaces to send promotions to my whole customer list?
No. Spaces is for conversations with people who know you and expect to hear from you. Its Terms rule out bulk unsolicited messages and cold outreach.
07Will the agent reply without me checking?
That depends on how you set up your agent. Spaces gives the agent the ability to read and reply. Approval steps and hand-offs are configured in your agent. For read-only use, give it a read-only key.
