Each card shows exactly how FirstVoice connects today.

  • Calendly

    Books directly

    Checks real-time availability and books appointments directly into Calendly during the call using Calendly's public API.

    How it connects to Calendly

  • Google Calendar

    Books directly

    Books real appointments straight into your Google Calendar during the call, reading live free/busy availability via Google's public Calendar API.

    How it connects to Google Calendar

  • HubSpot

    Syncs every call

    Creates or finds a HubSpot contact and logs a call note for every call, using HubSpot's public CRM API.

    How it connects to HubSpot

  • Trade Me Motors

    Syncs every call

    Trade Me's listing-enquiries endpoint lets FirstVoice poll for and relay new Motors buyer enquiries, though this is a pull (polled), not a real-time push.

    How it connects to Trade Me Motors

  • Urable

    Syncs every call

    We integrate directly with Urable's public API to create new customer leads and log jobs/events in real time after a call - live slot availability isn't exposed by Urable's API yet.

    How it connects to Urable

  • Salesforce

    Connects via automation

    Salesforce users can have new records created and existing records found via Zapier, Make, or Salesforce's own REST/GraphQL API after every call.

  • Mechanic Desk

    Partner access

    MechanicDesk has an online booking API, but the spec sits behind MechanicDesk's support-portal login - FirstVoice would need to request access before any booking claim can be made.

    How it connects to Mechanic Desk

  • MotorCentral

    Works alongside

    MotorCentral has no confirmed API — its Auto Attendant only auto-replies to email, so FirstVoice fills the voice gap with a texted summary instead of a direct DMS write.

    How it connects to MotorCentral

  • Workshop Software

    Works alongside

    Workshop Software has no confirmed API — FirstVoice would text a booking link and email a summary, while pursuing a partnership.

    How it connects to Workshop Software

  • Protractor

    Works alongside

    Protractor has an Online Service Scheduler feature but no confirmed API.

  • Tekmetric

    Works alongside

    Tekmetric has an API portal but access terms are unconfirmed.

FAQ

Automotive: common questions.

Will an AI receptionist replace car sales staff?

No. It answers calls when your team is busy, captures enquiries and books test drives or service appointments, then hands everything to your people. Selling and negotiating stay with your sales team.

How quickly can an AI call back a new car enquiry?

FirstVoice's speed-to-lead add-on calls new leads from Facebook, Google Ads and website forms back in seconds, during the calling hours you set. Outside those hours it texts the lead straight away and calls when your window opens.

Which automotive businesses does FirstVoice work with?

FirstVoice works with mechanics, panel beaters, WOF stations and auto electricians and 3 other automotive industries in New Zealand. Each has its own call handling, urgent-call rules and software connections.

What software does FirstVoice connect to for automotive?

FirstVoice books directly into Calendly and Google Calendar, sends calls into HubSpot, Trade Me Motors, Urable and Salesforce and works alongside Mechanic Desk, MotorCentral, Workshop Software and Protractor. Every integration page explains exactly how it connects.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $297 a month for 200 minutes with setup included and no GST added. Industry app and CRM connections are included from Growth at $597 a month.
