What It Does for a Kiwi Dealership

Six call types most rooftops handle every week. The AI takes the front desk so your salespeople sell and your service team services.

Stock Enquiries from Trade Me Motors

Live DMS lookup. Quotes only what you actually have. Books test drives into the right salesperson's calendar.

Service + WoF Bookings

Books service and WoF into your live calendar with the right tech and bay. Handles diagnostic descriptions.

Finance + Trade-In

General finance questions (FMCA-aware), partner lender info, trade-in details captured on the first call: make, model, year, KMs, WoF status. Salesperson opens the deal already informed.

Test Drive Scheduling

Books test drives with the right stock and salesperson. Sends the buyer the address, parking, what to bring.

After-Hours Lead Capture

Trade Me Motors enquiries do not stop at 5pm. Agent has the full conversation at 11pm Saturday and books the followup.

Service Recall Outbound

Calls customers due for service or with active recalls. Books straight into the workshop calendar. NZ Marketing Association compliant.

Built for NZ Auto Compliance

NZ Privacy Act 2020, FMCA + CCCFA on finance, and MTA member standards. The agent stays inside the rules that govern Kiwi auto retail by design.

NZ Privacy Act 2020

Information Privacy Principle 3 disclosure on every call. Suppression on request. Onshore data residency available. Encrypted audio in transit and at rest. Zero-data-retention default for finance enquiries.

FMCA + CCCFA Aware

General information only on credit. The agent never crosses into regulated personal financial product advice. Anything specific to a buyer's situation transfers to your licensed business manager.

Marketing Standards on Outbound

NZ Marketing Association telemarketing standards followed on service-recall and aged-stock outbound. Identifies as AI every call. Calls only inside permitted hours.

What happens when a buyer asks for a specific finance rate or approval decision? The agent transfers to your business manager. We never let the agent cross into regulated personal advice on credit (FMCA + CCCFA territory). Stock and service questions stay with the AI; finance specifics go to a human every time.

The Engine Under the Hood

The Voice Engine NZ Dealerships Need

Real-time speech, sub-second latency, function calls into your DMS, warm transfer with the buyer context already on screen.

Sub-800ms First-Token Latency

End-to-end response between 0.9 and 1.4 seconds. Below 1.5s the conversation feels human.

Native Kiwi Speech Transcription

Robust to NZ, Aussie, UK, US, Indian, Filipino, Pacific, and Asian accents. Handles workshop noise, road noise.

Function Calls Into Your DMS

Quotes live stock, books test drives, schedules WoF, queries finance, sends SMS, updates your CRM. Without a human in the loop.

Warm Transfer With Buyer Context

When the AI hands a call to your salesperson, they see the buyer's vehicle interest, budget, trade-in details already captured.

Native Kiwi Voice

NZ accents for both genders by default. Aussie, UK, US options on the voices page if your dealership operates trans-Tasman.

Recording + Retention Controls

Zero-data-retention available. Custom windows (0, 7, 30, 90 days) configurable per agent. Encrypted webhooks with HMAC signatures.
