How we work this out

Each line is volume × the share lost × the share that would have paid × your average value. The starting figures are a typical example for garages; change them to match yours.

  • Havari AI answers calls you can't and can follow up by text afterwards. We assume 60% of those callers still book.
  • Automatic reminders when customers are due back. We assume 25% of those who would have drifted away rebook.
  • Automatic reminders with one-tap confirm or rearrange. We assume no-shows fall by 30%.
  • Every WhatsApp, SMS, Instagram and Facebook message lands in one inbox and gets an instant reply. We assume 70% are saved.

These are estimates, not a guarantee.
