Under the truck, the air wrench screaming.
Pit, cab tilted, compressed air: the phone has no chance. For a fleet operator, a truck down costs hundreds of dollars a day — they call until they find a mechanic who answers, and the first one wins.

The problem

FAQ
Heavy truck mechanics: your questions
A truck is broken down on the road: what does the fleet operator get?
A text within 10 seconds, then AI identifies: vehicle position, symptom, cargo, tow already arranged or not. The request comes back with a high urgency score and a repair slot is offered in your calendar.
How much does a missed call cost a heavy truck mechanic?
With a $600 average job and 10–20 missed calls a month, losses run $1,500–3,000 a month. A fleet operator won over by one successful repair comes back with the whole fleet.
Breakdowns happen at night — does it catch those too?
Yes: the text goes out in under 10 seconds at any hour, AI qualifies 24/7. Many repairs get decided between 4 and 7 a.m., before departures — being reachable then sets you apart from most shops.
I answer when I'm in the shop office. Does Signal interfere?
No: it only activates on genuinely missed calls — no answer, busy line, after hours. You answer, you handle it, no duplicates.
How long to get started?
48 hours: forwarding code dialed once, script adapted to the trucking world — fleets, repairs, workshop — and a live test call. No software to install in the shop.
