Turbo Monkey

Call Intelligence

Every call written down, counted, and pinned to the line it came from.

Opens from the Shopmonkey rail. Needs your phone system connected to it.

Everything that matters about a phone call gets said out loud and is gone by the end of the day. Call Intelligence listens to every inbound call, writes the notes while the customer is still talking, and keeps what was said as something you can count: where they heard about you, whether they booked, and the problems nobody reported.

One call open in Call Intelligence: G. Lindqvist, a 2020 Toyota RAV4, Sep 19 at 16:21, three minutes thirty, taken by advisor Marisol, badged Booked and Positive. On the left the full eighteen-turn transcript with timestamps, starting with the recording notice at 0:00. On the right, Extracted from this call: referral source Friend referral at 92 percent confidence, first-time caller at 90, category Brakes at 85, vehicle 2020 Toyota RAV4 at 93, outcome appointment set at 83, price raised by caller at 85 and sentiment positive at 83, each with a link reading Show the line this came from. Below that an action item, add a tire and tread inspection to the ticket, and the caller's Shopmonkey work order: scheduled, purchase order raised, $613.
One call, whole: the transcript on the left, and on the right every field the system pulled out of it with the confidence and a jump to the line it came from. Westbrook Auto Works is a demonstration shop; every caller, vehicle and figure here is invented.

What it does

Every inbound call opens with a recording notice before anyone speaks. From there the call is transcribed as it happens and the advisor's notes write themselves: the complaint, the vehicle, the extra request, whatever the caller mentioned in passing. The advisor talks to the customer instead of typing. When the call ends the notes are already there.

Every finished call lands in a call log you can filter by advisor, outcome and month. Each row carries the caller, the vehicle, who took it, how long it ran, whether it booked, and the tags pulled out of it. Open one and you get the whole call: the transcript with timestamps, and beside it every field the system extracted, each with a confidence number and a link that jumps to the exact line of transcript it came from.

The call detail also carries what has to leave the call with you: action items pulled from what was promised, ready to attach to the ticket, and the caller's Shopmonkey work order with its status, whether a purchase order was raised, the total and the last activity. The call and the ticket sit on one screen.

Every advisor gets a dashboard of their own calls: volume and booking rate month over month, how their callers found the shop, what their calls are about, and their recent calls. It's private. There's no ranking and nobody else sees it. The owner view is the shop-wide one: calls analysed, call-to-appointment rate, first-time callers and how many of them booked, attribution captured, and where callers actually heard about the shop with the booking rate behind each source.

Under that sits Early warning. It reads the calls against the work orders and flags what's drifting before anyone reports it: estimate declines rising, the average wait from call to appointment stretching, sentiment cooling, price coming up early and costing bookings, status-chasing eating call capacity, and calls where the advisor said parts were ordered but no purchase order was ever raised on the ticket. Every alert says which side it came from, the call, the work order or both, and lists the calls it's reading by name and date.

Why it matters to a shop

You already pay for every call that comes in, and almost none of them get counted. The name, the vehicle, the complaint, the extra request and the answer to "how did you hear about us" all get said out loud, and most of it is gone by the next morning. Call Intelligence keeps it.

The attribution number is the one that pays for itself. When the question gets asked, the answer logs itself. After a few months you can see which sources actually book. A source that brings in sixty calls and books fifteen percent of them is a different line item than one that brings in thirty and books all of them.

The advisor numbers are there for coaching. Each advisor sees their own. The owner view shows call volume by advisor and leaves out per-advisor booking rates on purpose, because once that turns into a leaderboard the coaching stops working. It says so right on the screen.

Early warning is the part a call-recording product can't do on its own, because it needs both sides. It reads the calls against the work orders in the same Shopmonkey account. A rising decline rate, a wait stretching past two weeks, a customer waiting on parts that were never ordered. A shop usually finds out about those late, from the customer. This finds them in the calls while they're still two weeks old.

In detail

What ships today.

  • Notes written during the call

    The complaint, the vehicle and the extra requests are captured as they're said, with a recording notice played in the greeting before anyone speaks.

  • Every claim shows its evidence

    Every field carries a confidence number and a link to the line of transcript it came from. If nothing in the call pinned a field down, it stays empty.

  • Attribution that logs itself

    Where callers heard about the shop, and how many from each source booked. After a few months you've got real numbers on your advertising instead of asking people to remember.

  • Early warning across call and ticket

    Declines, wait times, sentiment, chase calls and promised-but-unordered parts, each tagged with whether it came from the call, the work order, or both.
