How BlockWave AI Works

Simple, reliable customer communication for busy auto & hail repair shops

BlockWave AI helps auto and hail repair shops keep customers informed without constant phone calls, interruptions, or manual follow-ups.

It works quietly in the background, sending updates and handling routine questions by text — so your team can focus on repairs, not replies.

The Problem BlockWave Solves

In high-volume repair environments, communication breaks down fast.

  • Customers want updates — often multiple times per week

  • Phones ring all day asking the same questions

  • Front desk staff get pulled away from real work

  • Technicians get interrupted mid-repair

  • Even good shops struggle to keep up during peak volume

Most shops don’t need more software.

They need less interruption.

What BlockWave AI Does

BlockWave AI is a customer communication assistant designed specifically for collision and hail repair workflows.

It connects to your job status process and automatically handles customer communication by SMS.

No customer apps. No portals. No logins.

Just text messages that feel natural and human.

Automated Status Updates by SMS

When a shop updates a job status (for example: check-in, waiting on parts, in repair, ready for pickup):

  • BlockWave AI sends a clear, human-sounding text message to the customer

  • Messages are written in plain language appropriate for repair shops

  • Customers receive updates without needing to ask

This reduces inbound calls before they happen.

Two-Way Text Messaging With AI Assistance

Customers can reply to messages naturally, just like texting a person.

BlockWave AI can:

  • Answer common questions automatically (status, timing, next steps)

  • Use the current job context to avoid incorrect or confusing replies

  • Keep responses short, clear, and realistic

  • Avoid making promises or guarantees

If a message requires human attention, BlockWave AI escalates it to the shop.

Intelligent Escalation to Humans

BlockWave AI is not designed to replace human judgment.

It is designed to filter noise.

When a customer message:

  • Is urgent

  • Requests a callback

  • Requires a decision

  • Falls outside routine questions

The conversation is flagged so a shop team member can respond directly.

The shop always stays in control.

No Customer Apps or Portals

BlockWave AI communicates entirely via SMS text messages.

Customers do not need to:

  • Download an app

  • Create an account

  • Log into a portal

  • Learn new tools

This keeps communication simple and accessible for all customers.

  • More focused technicians

  • Happier customers

BlockWave AI runs in the background while your team works.

BlockWave AI was built by a founder with deep experience in hail and collision repair operations.

The software was created after years of seeing:

  • Communication overwhelm front desk teams

  • Missed updates frustrate customers

  • Existing tools fall short in real-world conditions

BlockWave AI focuses on solving one problem exceptionally well:

customer communication that works in real repair environments.
