AI software to reply to Google reviews for auto repair shops

Replying to each one shows you listen; ignoring them leaves the conversation entirely in the complainer's hands, with no version from you. Once invited, connecting your shop takes a few steps: create your account, connect your Google Business Profile, and Repliq starts reading your reviews after the next sync.

Does Repliq understand technical reviews about repairs?
Yes. The AI reads the specifics of each review (the part, the quote, the wait time) and generates a reply draft about that specific thing, not a generic formula. You can review and edit it before publishing, or let Autopilot publish it directly.
Can I let replies publish on their own?
Yes, by turning on Autopilot. The safety filter still holds any review with legally risky language for your review, regardless of star rating. 1- and 2-star reviews are always held for your manual review. New reviews sync every 2 hours, so the draft is usually ready shortly after the review is posted.

Every 2 hours, so you don't need to check Google Business Profile manually to find out about a new review. This applies whether you use Autopilot or review each reply manually.
