Does Kimoby integrate with CDK?

Yes. Full integration including write-back. Estimate approvals and payments write back to the CDK repair order automatically.

What is Kimoby Voice?

Kimoby Voice is an AI-powered missed call agent for dealership service departments. When no one answers the phone, Kimoby Voice picks up, identifies the customer from the DMS by phone number, captures their request, and routes a voicemail recording, full transcript, and AI summary to the right advisor. It integrates with CDK, Reynolds, PBS, Tekion, DealerTrack, and Autosoft.

How is Kimoby Voice different from a standalone voice AI tool like Numa?

Kimoby Voice is a module inside the Service Lane OS, not a separate vendor. It shares data with the same platform advisors use for texting, video inspections, estimates, payments, and loaners. When a missed call comes in, the advisor sees it in the same dashboard where they manage every other customer interaction. No new system. No new login.

Does Kimoby Voice integrate with CDK?

Yes. Kimoby Voice integrates with CDK, Reynolds, PBS, Tekion, DealerTrack, and Autosoft. It uses DMS data to identify callers by phone number and route messages to the correct advisor based on customer service history.

Can Kimoby Voice identify the customer before they speak?

Yes. Kimoby Voice checks the incoming phone number against your DMS records. If the number matches a customer profile, it identifies them by name and routes the message to their assigned advisor. The advisor sees the customer name, vehicle, and service history alongside the transcript.

Does Kimoby Voice replace a call center?

Yes. Kimoby Voice replaces third-party call center services and traditional voicemail. It provides DMS-integrated call handling with customer identification, full transcripts, AI summaries with sentiment analysis, and advisor routing.

What else does Kimoby include besides voice?

Kimoby Voice is one module inside the Service Lane OS. The full platform includes two-way texting, video inspections with AI-generated estimates, digital estimates with customer approve and decline, mobile payments with credit card surcharging, in-person payment terminals, loaner fleet management with GPS, CSI follow-up automation, and marketing campaigns. Over 1,000 dealerships use Kimoby across North America.

The Best DealerLogix alternative: Kimoby vs DealerLogix

How is Kimoby different from DealerLogix?

DealerLogix focuses on the service write-up and menu presentation workflow. Kimoby is a full Service Lane OS that covers the entire customer-facing service journey: texting, video inspections (also called digital MPI), AI-generated estimates, payments, loaner management, Kimoby Voice for missed calls, and marketing campaigns. Everything connects to the DMS and ties back to the RO.

Because Kimoby covers the full workflow in one platform, advisors don't need separate tools for texting, inspections, estimates, payments, loaners, and campaigns. One dashboard. One vendor. One login. And because it all shares the same data layer, every action has full context: the customer's vehicle, service history, open RO, payment status, and loaner status.
