Automated Shop Solutions exists because shops deserve an AI partner who's been in their shoes — not a salesperson who's never picked up a wrench.
I came up through the trade. Started as a technician. Moved to service advisor. Then service manager. Fifteen years total at the counter and under the hood.
I saw the same problems eat at every shop I worked in — missed concerns, lost estimates, paperwork eating tech time, advisors typing instead of talking, customers slipping through the cracks because nobody had the bandwidth to follow up.
AI is the first tool I've used that actually solves them — if you implement it right. The problem is most shops don't, because most consultants have never spent a Saturday morning walking the lot.
That's why I started All Professional LLC and launched Automated Shop Solutions as the brand. We consult. We implement third-party AI tools. And when off-the-shelf doesn't fit, we build the thing — like Automated Intake, our voice-to-RO Chrome extension that's already running in shops today.
The auto-repair industry is in the middle of an AI shift, and the shops that adapt first are going to compound the lead. We exist to make sure that lead doesn't only go to the operators with venture money and IT departments. Independent shops — the backbone of this trade — deserve the same edge.
Every engagement, every product decision, every "no, that's not the right fit for you" conversation comes back to these.
Every recommendation comes from a real shop pain — not a roadmap brainstorm in a coworking space.
We get nothing if you pick Claude over GPT, or no AI at all. Our incentive is to recommend what actually fits.
Plain English over jargon. If we can't explain why something will help your shop, it shouldn't be in the roadmap.
Most consulting engagements end on slide 47. Ours end when the AI is in your daily workflow and your numbers prove it.
Independent shops get founding-member rates. No "enterprise sales tax." No three-year contracts.
If we're not the right team for you — or if you don't need AI at all yet — we'll tell you and not bill you.
