A personalised reply drafted for every new enquiry
When a new enquiry arrives from your Vehiso website, AI reads the customer's message and the real details of the car they asked about - price, mileage, spec and availability - and drafts a reply that answers them and suggests a next step, such as a test drive or a part exchange valuation. For any other enquiry, such as one added by hand from DoneDeal or a phone call, your team can generate a reply with one click.
- Drafted automatically for new website enquiries
- Uses your real stock data and never invents prices, finance figures or availability
- Generate a reply for any other enquiry with one click

"Hi, is the Golf still available? I'd like to see it this week, and I have a 2015 Ford Fiesta to part-exchange."
Hi James, thanks for your interest in the 2019 Volkswagen Golf 1.5 TSI Match. Good news: it's still available, at €15,495 with 41,000 miles. We'd be happy to book you a test drive this week, and we can value your 2015 Ford Fiesta while you're here. Just reply with a day and time that suits you. Kind regards, Tom, Sales Team

Most enquiries go cold because nobody replied in time
Car buyers often enquire with several dealers at once, and the first to reply with a helpful answer is usually the one they talk to. Industry research has long found that enquiries contacted within five minutes are far more likely to convert than enquiries left for an hour or more. Vehiso makes sure every enquiry gets a helpful reply while the customer is still interested.
- Speed of response is the biggest factor in converting an online enquiry
- Evening and weekend enquiries no longer wait for the next working day
- Every customer gets an accurate, helpful answer, not a generic acknowledgement
Your tone, your sign-off, your decision
Set the tone of voice that suits your dealership, such as friendly or professional, and the sign-off your customers see. Staff see every draft on the enquiry and can edit it, regenerate it or send it as it is. Out-of-hours auto-send is off by default: switch it on and replies outside your opening hours go out automatically, so evening and weekend enquiries hear back straight away.
- Choose the tone of voice and sign-off for every reply
- Optional out-of-hours auto-send, off by default
- Every reply is logged on the enquiry and customer timeline
