TRY OUR AI SETTER · LIVE

This is the conversation
your leads actually get.

No script tree, no press-1. It reads the message, asks the right next question, and drives toward a booked test drive, in your dealership’s voice.

Example conversation between a car buyer and the Ikonic AI setter: the setter answers, recommends a vehicle, qualifies the buyer, and books a test drive.

THE ENGINE · HEAD TO HEAD

Same question. Different result.

A buyer asks for a reliable SUV with trunk space. One setter recommends the right vehicle, sends the exact listing, and books the test drive. The other loops the same generic questions, ignores what they asked, and never books, this is a real conversation a competitor’s bot just had.

With Ikonic · AI Setter

Recommends, links, and books.

The Ikonic setter recommends a Honda CR-V, sends the listing, qualifies financing, and books a Saturday test drive.

One qualified, booked appointment.

  • Actually answers and recommends the right vehicle
  • Sends the exact listing, not a generic inventory dump
  • Qualifies financing without a credit pull
  • Books a real time and sends a reminder so they show
Without Ikonic · Generic Bot

Loops, dumps, never books.

A typical dealer bot repeats generic questions, asks the buyer's name late, ignores the question, dumps a car list and an inventory link, and never books.

One lead lost to three competitors.

  • Forgets the conversation and repeats "how can I help you"
  • Ignores what the buyer actually asked
  • Dumps a car list and an inventory link instead of recommending
  • Pushes "come visit us," never books a time
