Get brake repair quotes from 5 auto shops with one message

By Jake Marsh · Updated Nov 13, 2026 · 3 min read

Short answer: Ask your agent for quotes and it finds nearby shops, then starts one CallForMe call per shop in parallel. Each call asks the same questions: parts and labor price, what's included, and the earliest opening. When the calls end, your agent puts the answers in one table so you can pick a shop in a minute.

Open this in ChatGPT and swap in your details before you send it. It needs the CallForMe plugin.

Getting a fair brake quote usually means an hour on the phone repeating your year, make, and model. Your agent can do all five calls at once.

This page is one job, front brakes, priced at five shops and compared. For other shop calls (diagnostic fees, is my car ready, tires, drop-off times), see have AI call auto repair shops.

What your agent does

1. find_business with query: "auto repair" and near: "75024". It picks five shops that are open now, skipping chains you said to skip.
2. plan_call once for the shared goal. It returns likely questions a service writer will ask, such as "OEM or aftermarket pads?" and "any grinding noise?", so your agent can answer them up front in details.
3. place_call five times, one per shop, with the same questions:

{
  "phone": "+19725550117",
  "business_name": "Lakeside Auto",
  "goal": "Get a price quote and the earliest appointment for front brake pads and rotors on a 2019 Toyota RAV4.",
  "details": "2019 RAV4 LE, about 48,000 miles. Light squeal when braking, no grinding. Fine with quality aftermarket parts.",
  "questions": [
    "Total price for front pads and rotors, parts and labor?",
    "Is that OEM or aftermarket?",
    "Earliest available appointment?",
    "How long does the job take?"
  ],
  "on_behalf_of": "Sam Lee",
  "callback_number": "+12145550199",
  "constraints": "Quote only. Do not book or agree to any charges."
}

4. get_call on each call_id with wait_seconds: 50 until all five are ended. If a shop asks the trim level or tire size and it's not in details, it appears as pending_question and your agent answers with answer_question.

Illustrative example: names, prices and times are made up. Transcript excerpt from one call:

Assistant: Hi, this is an assistant calling for Sam Lee, on a recorded line. I'm looking for a quote on front brake pads and rotors for a 2019 RAV4.

Service writer: Front pads and rotors on a RAV4, we're at about $420 with aftermarket, $510 OEM.

Assistant: What's the earliest you could do it?

Service writer: Thursday morning, drop it off by 8 and it's ready by noon.

What your agent tells you:

Four calls answered, each within 2 minutes, $4.00 total. The unanswered one was free.

One request instead of five

Your agent can also hand the whole job to call_around with query: "auto repair", near: "75024" and count: 5. CallForMe finds the shops, calls them side by side, and returns one results table with price, earliest slot and answers. See call around.

Try it free on the demo shops

Three fictional auto shops take free demo calls: Oak Street Auto (469) 402-2653, Cedar Lane Tire & Brake (469) 437-9838 and Elm Avenue Garage (469) 300-6608. Each quotes front brakes differently, one asks whether it's talking to a robot, and one puts you on hold. Ask your agent to call all three at once and leave out the car, and you'll see the mid-call question come back. See the demo lines.

Tips

• Put the car details in details, not the goal. Year, trim, mileage, and symptoms stop the "what kind of car?" back-and-forth.
• Use the same questions for every shop. Your agent can only build a clean comparison if each call collected the same fields.
• Say "quote only" in constraints. Otherwise a helpful service writer may offer to book you in, and the assistant will politely decline.
• Follow up with one booking call to the shop you choose. Put the quoted price in details so the assistant can confirm it.

What it costs

$1 per shop that answers, including the first 2 minutes, then $0.40 a minute. Busy signals and no-answers are free.
