"Yeah, uh, I'm broke down next to exit 78 on I-65... I think right past the exit sign & bridge? I got a dually F-350 loaded with equipment, and it's making a grinding noise. I can't move it. There's 5 lanes and I'm blocking the left lane."

01
Smart Pricing Engine

Your Prices. Your Rules. Quoted Instantly by AI.

Configure every variable that affects your tow pricing — base hook-up rate, cost per mile from HQ to pickup, vehicle type surcharges, and after-hours fees. The AI calculates and quotes your exact price to every caller in real time. No guesswork, no callbacks.

Mileage-based pricing from your HQ to pickup
Vehicle type & weight class surcharges
Nighttime, weekend & holiday surcharges
Fully editable from your dashboard — no code
02
Location Intelligence

Understands Locations the Way People Say Them.

Callers don't give GPS coordinates. They say "the Walmart on Broadway" or "across from the Shell station off I-24." Our AI resolves landmarks, intersections, and relative descriptions into exact addresses for both pickup and drop-off — no human clarification needed.

Results that hit the Bottom Line

We don't just answer phones. We capture jobs that used to go to the next company on the list.

"I'm a one-man operation — I drive the truck. When I'm winching a car out of a ditch or strapping a vehicle down, I can't answer the phone if a call comes in. Before Tow Deputy, those calls just went to voicemail and I'd lose the job. Now the AI picks up, gets all the details, and texts me the summary. I just glance at my phone and decide if I can take it."

-40% Dispatch Overhead

"We run 14 trucks across three counties. We used to need two full-time dispatchers around the clock. Tow Deputy handles the intake perfectly — vehicle type, drivetrain, exact location, the whole nine. The structured data feeds right into our routing, so we always send the closest available driver. We cut our dispatch overhead by 40% and our average response time dropped by 11 minutes."

100% Call Answer Rate

"I set it up specifically for the 12AM–6AM window. I used to wake up to every single call, half of them just price shoppers. Now Tow Deputy screens everything — it collects the info, qualifies the job, and only wakes me up with a text if it's a confirmed, high-paying call. I'm sleeping through the night again and still catching every legitimate job."

Smarter Intake. Faster Dispatch. More Jobs Completed.

Every call the AI answers is structured data — vehicle type, drivetrain, exact location, passenger count. That means your dispatch isn't guessing. The closest available driver gets the job instantly, cutting response times and letting you service more calls per shift.

How does an AI answering service handle after-hours towing dispatch?

Missed after-hours calls cost towing companies an average of $150 per lockout or local tow. We let you configure your own pricing model so you can easily edit your after-hours upcharge alongside other variables like price/mile & tranmission type upcharge. An AI answering service handles these calls by instantly collecting the vehicle make, exact location, and problem type, transferring these urgent details via SMS directly to on-call drivers.

How does Tow Deputy push call data into platforms like Towbook and Omadi?

After every call, Tow Deputy fires a real-time webhook containing structured intake fields — vehicle type, drivetrain, exact coordinates, and service requested — directly into your phone via SMS, Towbook, or Omadi account, so the closest available driver gets the assignment without any manual re-entry.

How much more revenue can a towing company capture by eliminating missed calls?

Operators using Tow Deputy report servicing 30% more calls per shift because every inbound call is answered and dispatched — not lost to voicemail. At an average job value of $150, capturing just five extra calls per week adds over $3,900 in monthly revenue.

AI Towing Dispatcher & Receptionist FAQs

Straight answers for towing company owners comparing AI dispatch software, answering services, and hiring dispatchers.

An AI towing dispatcher is software that answers your towing company's phone calls with a natural-sounding AI voice, collects the job details — vehicle make and model, drivetrain, exact pickup and drop-off location, and problem type — quotes your prices, and dispatches the job to your closest available driver. Tow Deputy does this 24/7, so no call ever goes to voicemail.
