Build a shop digital brain so Claude writes cleaner repair orders and advisor scripts
Brian Weeks, co-owner with his brother Chris of ATC Auto Center (12-bay shop in Augusta, Georgia and 10-bay shop in Grovetown, about 25 team members)
He starts mornings with a Claude "morning brief" of emails, meetings and deadlines. The team records calls and runs them through AI for advisor coaching, uses AI to clean vague customer problem descriptions on repair orders, and built custom AI tools that translate technician explanations into plain English for advisors. They document shop workflows into a "digital brain" so outputs match how ATC actually operates. They are not yet using AI to answer phones live.

How to set it up yourself
- Document how your shop actually books, writes ROs and talks to customers.
- Feed that into Claude (or similar) before asking it to draft anything customer-facing.
- Use recorded calls for coaching, not for live answering, until you trust the process.
