Missed-call text-back and booking for mobile detailers and detailing shops
When you can’t pick up, KeepBuffing texts the caller back in seconds, quotes your prices, and books the job.
Plans from $297/month. 3 bookings in your first 30 days, or month two is free.
Example: a missed call becomes a booked job, by text.
Gloves on, phone ringing
You’re mid-polish with a machine running. You can’t answer, and you shouldn’t have to.
Nobody leaves a voicemail
Most callers hang up and dial the next name on the list instead.
Callbacks come too late
By the time you call back after the job, they’ve already booked someone else.
How it works
01
A call goes unanswered
After a few rings, your phone forwards the call to KeepBuffing.
02
They get a text in seconds
From your business name. It says up front that it’s your automated assistant and asks how it can help.
03
The assistant handles it
It asks about the vehicle, service, and location, and quotes from your price list.
04
They book on your calendar
Bookings land in your KeepBuffing app and sync to Google Calendar, with an optional deposit and reminders.
You get a notification for every booking, and you can jump into any conversation from your phone.
What’s included

Setup: $297 one time, waived for founding clients. 3-month minimum, then month to month. Pay annually and get 2 months free.
If KeepBuffing doesn’t book at least 3 appointments in your first 30 days after going live, month two is free. A booking counts when it’s made through KeepBuffing and not cancelled.
Book a 15-minute demo
KeepBuffing does one thing for one kind of business. Detailers can’t answer the phone mid-job, and the customers who call are ready to book today. That gap is what we fix.
We set up and run the system for you, tune the assistant to your menu, and send a plain report every month showing what it booked. If it isn’t earning its keep, you’ll see that too.
Do I need to change my phone number?
No. You keep your number. Unanswered calls forward to KeepBuffing with a quick setting on your phone.
Will customers know it’s automated?
Yes. The first text says it’s your business’s automated assistant. After that it uses your prices, sounds like your business, and you can take over any conversation.
I already use Urable, Jobber, or Square. Does this replace it?
No. Keep using it for invoicing and job details. There’s no direct sync to Urable or Jobber yet, so bookings land in your KeepBuffing app and your Google Calendar, and you get a text for each one.
How long does setup take?
About 15 minutes of your time to fill out a form. We handle the rest. Expect to be live in 1 to 2 weeks, depending on phone carrier approval.
Is there a long contract?
3 months minimum, then month to month. Cancel with 30 days notice.
What is missed call text back?
When a call to your business goes unanswered, the caller automatically gets a text from your business within seconds, so the conversation continues by text instead of ending at voicemail. KeepBuffing adds an AI assistant that answers questions and books the job.
Is this an AI receptionist for detailers?
Yes, for text. The assistant handles the conversation by text and books appointments. The Pro plan adds AI voice answering for calls.
Does it work for mobile detailers and detailing shops?
Both. For mobile detailers it checks your service area and builds in drive time between jobs. For shops it books around your bay hours.
What if the assistant gets something wrong?
You see every conversation in your app and can jump in any time. Tell us, and we’ll fix the wording the same week.
Book a 15-minute demo. You’ll call our demo line, hang up, and watch a booking happen on your own phone.
