AI visibility for your automotive clients
SocialCRM compares what AI tools say about a shop with verified shop facts. Your team sees the errors and tracks each correction.

Add an evidence check to the work you already do for shops.
Your team knows the client and the local market. SocialCRM keeps the confirmed facts, the stored answers, and the record of what was corrected.
Confirm shop facts
Record each client shop’s services, hours, phone, and certifications with the evidence behind them. Facts are entered directly; a shop-system connection is not required.
Check AI answers
Ask the same driver question through the AI provider APIs a workspace has configured: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, and Perplexity. Each answer is stored with its provider and model.
Review discrepancies
Each confirmed fact is marked as a match, a mismatch, or not stated in the answer. You and your client decide which errors are worth correcting.
Track corrections
Route an approved profile, content, or structured-data fix, then run the original question again and compare the stored answers.
Start with a conversation about your clients.
Tell us which shops you work with, how many locations they have, and the services you provide. We’ll talk through whether SocialCRM fits your client work and what a partnership could look like.
Questions from agencies
Does SocialCRM guarantee that AI tools will recommend my clients?
No. SocialCRM shows what configured AI providers say and where it differs from confirmed shop facts. Providers decide what their answers include, and a correction may or may not change a later answer.
Which AI providers does SocialCRM check?
In the dashboard, checks run through the provider APIs a workspace has configured: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, and Perplexity, with Grok available as an added check. The free AI Shop Checkup uses Perplexity. Answers in consumer AI apps can differ from API answers.
Does it connect to my clients’ shop management systems?
Not generally yet. Shopmonkey is in rollout, Tekmetric is in rollout, Shop-Ware is planned. Shop facts can be entered and confirmed without a connection.
Does SocialCRM publish changes to client websites automatically?
No. A fix is applied only after someone approves it. Your team and your client stay responsible for what gets published.
Is there a formal partner program?
Partnership details are discussed case by case. Contact us with your agency, your automotive clients, and the services you provide.
