AI for dealerships, service centres, and EV operators
Dealerships, OEMs, service networks, and EV-charging operators use Deburise to handle test-drive leads in seconds, automate service bookings, manage customer comms, and turn every Facebook lead into a conversation.
What Automotive clients see with Deburise
WhereAutomotive teams hit the wall
Lead leakage from social ads
Facebook and Google leads die because the first response takes hours - and the buyer has already pinged three other dealers.
Service bay capacity wasted
Phone-only booking creates no-shows, double-bookings, and idle bays during low-demand windows.
Manual customer comms
Reminders, service updates, pickup notifications, and feedback collection happen via copy-paste WhatsApp - inconsistent and missed often.
EV charging operations
Driver support, fault reporting, refunds, and roaming agreements pile up in inboxes that can't keep pace.
The automotive numbers behind every AI business case
Industry research on how car buyers and owners actually behave in 2026 - and why slow dealer response is so expensive.

In actionHow Automotive teams put this to work
Facebook lead handling
Buyer clicks a Facebook ad; AI engages within 60 seconds, qualifies, books a test drive, and hands a hot lead to a sales rep with context.
Service appointment
Owner messages “service is due” on WhatsApp; AI confirms model, suggests slots, sends pickup details, and pings on completion.
EV charger fault
Driver reports a charger issue; AI verifies, refunds the failed session, dispatches a field-service ticket, and follows up on resolution.
