AI BDC Agents Built for Fixed Ops Scheduling, Not Generic Chat
Outbound Voice and SMS Agents Trained on Your Service Workflow
Your BDC has too many declined-service follow-ups, too many lapsed customers and too many recall letters to call every one of them within a week that matters. That is not a staffing failure. It is math. A human team can only make so many calls and send so many texts before the opportunity goes cold.
Dealerwing's AI BDC agents handle outbound voice and SMS conversations trained specifically on fixed ops workflows: declined service, recall follow-up, retention outreach and appointment scheduling. The agent calls or texts within hours instead of weeks, answers common questions, and books directly into your scheduling system.
This does not replace your BDC. It augments it. Routine follow-up gets handled at scale and speed, and anything that needs a real conversation, an upset customer, a complex repair question, a price negotiation, gets escalated to your team with full context already attached.
Trained on Fixed Ops, Not Generic Scripts
Agents are configured on your store's actual declined-service, recall and scheduling workflows, not a one-size-fits-all script.
Speed Your Human Team Can't Match Alone
Every prioritized customer gets contacted within hours of being identified, not whenever a rep gets to the bottom of the list.
Human Handoff Built In
Complex cases, unhappy customers and high-value opportunities route to your BDC with the full conversation history attached.
Compliant by Design
Every call and text respects consent, opt-outs, and TCPA call-time and state-specific rules automatically.
How it works
A process built on validated data
Configure the Agent
Build scripts, scheduling rules and escalation triggers around your store's actual fixed ops workflow.

Use cases
Where AI BDC Agents Actually Get Used
These are the fixed ops workflows dealers run through AI agents first, because the volume is high and the conversation is usually simple.
Declined Service Follow-Up
Call every declined-service customer within 48 hours, not 48 days.
Hover for detail
The agent references the specific declined item, answers cost and scheduling questions, and books the appointment directly.
Recall Outreach
Reach recall-affected customers with a clear, compliant message.
Hover for detail
Agents explain the recall in plain terms, confirm the customer still owns the vehicle, and schedule the appointment.
Lapsed Customer Reactivation
Text and call customers who haven't been in for a service interval.
Hover for detail
The agent references the customer's last visit and mileage interval to make the outreach feel specific, not generic.
Appointment Confirmations and Reminders
Cut no-shows without tying up a human phone line.
Hover for detail
Automated confirmation sequences reduce missed appointments and free BDC time for calls that require judgment.
After-Hours Inbound Capture
Answer the SMS that comes in at 9pm instead of losing it overnight.
Hover for detail
The agent responds immediately, answers routine questions and schedules or escalates, instead of the message sitting unread until morning.
Objection and FAQ Handling
Answer 'how much will this cost' without a callback loop.
Hover for detail
Common cost, timing and process questions are answered directly so customers don't stall out waiting for a human reply.
Escalation to a Human Rep
Know exactly when the AI should stop talking.
Hover for detail
Upset customers, complex repairs and high-value ROs are flagged and routed to your BDC with the full conversation attached.

FAQ
Common questions
Will this replace our BDC staff?
No. The agents absorb routine, high-volume outbound work so your BDC can focus on complex conversations, upset customers and high-value opportunities that need a person.
How do customers react to talking to an AI agent?
Most customers respond normally to a clear, direct conversation about scheduling. The agent identifies itself, and any customer who wants a human is escalated immediately.
Are the calls and texts TCPA compliant?
Yes. We only contact customers with documented express consent, honor opt-outs in real time, and enforce call-time and state-specific restrictions automatically.
Can we review what the agent said to customers?
Yes. Every call and text is logged and available for review, including outcomes and escalation reasons.
How is this different from a basic chatbot?
The agent is trained on your specific fixed ops workflows, connects directly to your scheduling system, and knows when to stop and hand off to a human, rather than following a generic decision tree.
What if the agent can't answer a customer's question?
It escalates to your BDC with the conversation history attached instead of guessing or giving a vague answer.
How quickly can this be deployed?
Most stores are running an initial campaign within a few weeks of providing workflow details and a validated contact list.
