Questions About AI Operations for Marine Diesel & Yacht Repair Companies in Texas
AI routes commercial workboat calls and recreational yacht calls through different intake processes. Commercial clients get PO number capture and vendor compliance documentation. Yacht owners get status updates and timeline estimates. One shop, two professional service experiences — without hiring separate staff for each market.
72 hours after a hurricane, 200+ calls come in simultaneously. AI triages by severity — sinking vessels first, engine damage second, cosmetic damage scheduled for weeks later. Every call gets answered, categorized, and queued. Your mechanics go to the highest-priority jobs while the AI manages the queue.
A 6-mechanic shop serving both markets recovers 4-6 jobs per week from improved call handling — at $5,000-$80,000 per job, that's highly variable but averages $80,000-$200,000/month in recovered revenue. Post-hurricane surge capture alone can add $500,000+ in a single season.
