Customer Messaging

A conversation with the details already there.

Every customer conversation lives in your BUILT inbox, tied to the vehicle and the job. Reply, share photos, open quotes, and jump to the Live Workshop without leaving the thread.

Who it’s forFor owners, managers, and front desk staff. Installers see conversations only for the jobs assigned to them.

How it works

What it does

The inbox shows each customer with their vehicle, service, job status, and unread count. Filter by All or Unread, and by open conversations, closed jobs, or everything. Inside a thread, the vehicle and an Open Live Workshop button sit at the top, quotes open with Review Quote, and you can attach a photo, video, or file. Closed conversations keep their full history.

Scroll — the screen follows along.

  1. An inbox built around jobs

    Each thread shows the customer, vehicle, service, status, and unread count.

  2. Context at the top

    The vehicle and Open Live Workshop sit above the conversation, and quotes open right from a message.

  3. Keep the job moving

    Reply from the same thread through approval, work updates, and pickup.

No more digging through texts

The vehicle and job are attached to the conversation, so nobody asks “which car was this?”

Hand-offs without lost context

Anyone on the team with access sees the full history before replying.

Customer details stay protected

Customer phone and email appear only on booked jobs, and only for authorized roles.

Good to know

Clear about what it does today.

  • Conversations happen inside BUILT. Customers are alerted through in-app and push notifications where enabled; messages are not sent as texts or emails.
  • Opening the inbox does not mark everything read; messages are marked read when they are actually viewed.
