ShortLoop integrates with Tekion to automate dealership revenue capture
Tekion dealerships can now automate customer calls with AI that knows your real-time data.
AI phone agents only work if they're connected to real dealership data. Without access to customer history, service records, and real-time availability, AI gives generic responses that make customers hang up. That's why ShortLoop has become an official partner on Tekion's Automotive Partner Cloud (APC). Dealers can now connect ShortLoop's AI phone agents with Tekion's Automotive Retail Cloud (ARC), giving the AI access to the same customer and vehicle information your advisors use, live on every call.
What's New
ShortLoop Phone AI can read the customer's information, vehicle history, and appointment details directly from Tekion in real time.
Every call starts with full customer context
The AI pulls customer profiles, vehicle history, and real-time availability directly from ARC before the conversation begins, providing accurate and relevant responses.
Appointments are booked directly into the ARC Service Scheduler
The AI captures intent, selects the right vehicle, adds remarks and op codes, and schedules the appointment, creating new customer records when needed, without any manual data entry.
Outbound campaigns run on live ARC data
ShortLoop's outbound AI uses customer and vehicle records directly from ARC CRM run targeted campaigns — recall notices, service follow-ups, declined job outreach — and syncs outcomes back into the system after every interaction.
Everything is written back into ARC after the call
Call notes, OpCodes, appointment details, and updated customer information are synced automatically. Advisors have full context when they follow up.
"ShortLoop and Tekion just work together seamlessly. Every call is handled, every detail is in ARC, and my team has full context without having to chase anything down."

Service Manager, AM Ford
