What is a Dealership Engagement System™?

A DES™ gives your service department one modern way to connect with customers. It does three jobs: grow your revenue, make every interaction feel personal, and run your operations smoother. Kimoby built the first one. Back in 2014 we gave dealers an easy platform, and it has grown into a complete system for the service lane.

One operating system. Four modules.

The Service Lane OS runs the visit, from drop-off to pickup. The four modules extend it across the rest of the relationship. You start with the OS and add the modules you need.

How a DES works

From check-in to checkout, one connected flow that ends phone tag and turns service visits into revenue.

1

Customer books

Automated text reminders keep the schedule full and cut no-shows, without advisors burning time on confirmation calls.

2

Vehicle arrives

A digital or video inspection captures findings in minutes. No paper clipboards, no duplicate entry.

3

Customer sees the video

They see the brake wear or worn tire in a personalized video with an itemized estimate. Seeing is believing.

4

Approves by text

No phone tag. Approvals come back fast, so techs stay productive and ROs keep moving.

5

Pays, seamlessly

Text-to-pay or a terminal lets customers pay from anywhere, even before pickup. Advisors stay on the floor.

Built on real service data

Kimoby's DES runs on patterns from millions of real repair orders, not theory.

+246%

growth in average repair order size on Affirm-financed repairs.

$19.6M

approved through digital estimates in 12 months across the network.

6 minutes

median time from estimate sent to signed approval, versus 22 to 23 hours of phone tag (industry data).

Know your DES Score

A Kimoby metric that scores your customer engagement and points to specific, untapped revenue opportunities.

Prior to Kimoby, the customer experience was such a hassle. We couldn't connect with our customers fast enough. Kimoby has made a huge impact on our bottom line.
