Respond

AI Lead Response & Qualification: Every lead answered within moments, day or night.

Aria, QualiFlow’s AI agent, answers new internet leads, texts, phone calls, messages and website chats day and night, in English, Spanish or French, then qualifies the shopper and books the visit.

  • Nights and weekends
  • English, Spanish and French
  • Inside your rules

Example: at 11:42 PM a shopper texts Riverton Motors about a used 2021 Highlander XLE. Aria replies right away, learns the shopper wants a Saturday morning test drive, books 10:30 AM and leaves a brief for Jordan in sales.

The problem at your store

Leads arrive all night. Replies wait for whoever is free.

Internet leads, texts and chats come in at all hours and on every channel, but replies depend on who is free. After-hours and weekend leads wait until morning, facts get lost between shifts, and shoppers who prefer Spanish or French wait for a bilingual rep.

  • After-hours leads wait until morning

    The 11 PM form and the Sunday text sit untouched while the shopper keeps browsing other stores.

  • Every rep asks different questions

    Budget, timing and trade-in get asked twice or not at all, and answers get lost between shifts and channels.

  • Language gaps slow the first reply

    Spanish- and French-speaking shoppers wait for the one bilingual employee to come on shift.

Capabilities

Your best BDC rep’s first reply, around the clock

Aria handles the first reply and the qualifying questions on every channel, then hands your team a shopper who is ready to talk.

  • Answers within moments, 24/7

    Aria responds to inbound conversations at night, on weekends and on holidays. Outside business hours, customers still get a useful reply. If Aria’s call line ever fails, the call forwards to your store line while you’re open, or goes to voicemail.

  • Qualifies like a pro

    Vehicle interest, new or used, budget, timing, trade-in, cash, finance or lease intent, and location. Aria remembers what a customer said on other channels, never re-asks it, and asks once for a phone number before a booking or hand-off on chat channels.

  • Speaks your customers’ language

    English, Spanish or French. Aria follows the customer when they switch mid-conversation and saves the preference for next time.

  • Answers from your real inventory

    Answers come from your inventory and your published dealership knowledge, with up to three real photos of the car from Inventory. Aria never invents prices, stock, discounts, payments or policies.

  • Screens out the noise first

    Opt-outs, wrong numbers, spam, invoices and job applications are handled before the AI ever sees them, so they never land in the sales queue.

  • Shows its work

    Every action carries a plain-English decision card: what triggered it, what Aria checked and what actually happened.

  • You set the autonomy. Off, Ask first (you approve each reply) or Autopilot within your rules.

  • One-click takeover. Aria stops for that conversation, including replies it had prepared but not sent.

  • Nothing goes live by accident. Signing up or importing contacts never starts outreach. Aria replies only once your channels are connected and her live rules are approved.

How it works

From first message to a booked test drive

The same four steps run for every new lead, on every channel, inside the rules you set.

  1. A lead arrives

    A website form, text, phone call, message, email or chat. QualiFlow records it once and links it to the right customer.

  2. Aria replies within moments

    On the same channel, in English, Spanish or French, using your verified inventory and published Knowledge.

  3. Aria qualifies

    Vehicle, budget, timing, trade-in and purchase intent, each fact saved with its source so nobody asks twice.

  4. Your team takes it from there

    Aria books only when the customer confirms, then hands the salesperson a ready-to-work brief.

8:15 PM on a Sunday, in Spanish

Here’s how it plays out at a dealership like Riverton Motors, a fictional store. The showroom is closed for the weekend, and a shopper writes to the website chat in Spanish about a gray Tacoma.

  1. 8:15 PM

    A shopper asks in Spanish whether the gray 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport on the website is still available.

  2. 8:15 PM

    Aria replies in Spanish right away and shows the truck from the verified inventory record.

  3. 8:16 PM

    The shopper wants to drive it after work on Monday. Aria offers open times and books 6:00 PM only after the shopper picks one.

  4. 8:17 PM

    Jordan in sales gets the appointment with a brief in English and a note that the shopper prefers Spanish.
