Repairs and specialist services: AI enquiry assistant for tent repair companies
An AI enquiry assistant for tent repair companies that answers questions about dropping off fabric, drying and zips from your own approved explanations, and hands over to the workshop when unsure.
Which questions tent repair companies keep getting.
Tent repair companies get the same questions over and over, mostly about dropping off. Does the tent need to be clean? Can it come in wet? Do the poles and pegs need to come too? Can I send only the damaged part? Those questions arrive in the evening and at weekends when the workshop is closed, and in spring alongside the busiest work. The repairer answers between stitches, or they wait until the next day. There are also questions with no standard answer, such as whether a specific tear can be repaired. An assistant has to know the difference and must not guess at the condition of a tent it has never seen.

Choose approved sources
The assistant uses only texts the workshop has released: the guidance on drop-off and drying, the fabrics you repair, opening hours, shipping options and the enquiry route. It only mentions prices and ready dates if those texts contain them. Anything outside them, it is instructed not to know.
Recognise and bound the question
Asking whether the groundsheet should come too is a drop-off question with a fixed answer. Whether a particular tear can be fixed is an assessment only the repairer can make. The assistant recognises the difference and gives no estimate on assessment questions, pointing instead to the enquiry form and the photos the workshop needs.
Answer or hand over
For a question covered by approved information, the assistant answers briefly and says where the answer comes from. For doubt, a complaint or a question about a repair in progress, it passes the conversation to a member of staff with the question and any details. The customer is told plainly that a person will follow up.
On your own information, with a person behind it.
Tent repair companies usually have the answers already: on a frequently asked questions page, in emails that get reused and in the repairer's head. We gather those into a set of approved texts the workshop manages and can edit. The assistant sits on the website or beside the enquiry form. Handovers arrive in the same inbox or list where questions come in now, so there is no extra channel to check.
General information or job status too
An assistant that only handles general questions is simple and safe. One that can also give the status of a repair in progress saves more calls, but must be sure who it is talking to. Many workshops start with general questions and point to the customer portal for status, where customers already have access through their personal link.
Refer strictly or answer more freely
A strict assistant refers more often, which means more work but little risk. A looser one handles more on its own but may give a slightly wrong answer in an edge case, such as a fabric you rarely work with. For questions about whether something can be repaired we always choose strict; for opening hours and drop-off it can be looser.
Keep conversations or not
Keeping conversations shows which questions keep coming up and which answers are missing. They sometimes contain personal details too. So we keep only what is needed to improve the assistant, for a period you decide, and say so beside the assistant so visitors know what happens.

From approved texts the assistant answers questions about drop-off, drying, fabrics, opening hours and the enquiry route; when in doubt or asked for an assessment, it hands over to the workshop. We gather those texts from your emails and frequently asked questions at the start. Together we try an ordinary question about whether the poles need to come in, and someone describing a tear and asking whether it can be fixed. A regular summary of unanswered questions can be switched on afterwards.
View pricingSupport and updatesGood to know.
Explore pricing and optionsCan the assistant judge whether a tent can still be repaired?
No, and that is deliberate. Whether a tear, seam or zip can be repaired depends on the fabric, the location and the state of the tent, and only the repairer can judge that. The assistant explains which photos are needed and points to the enquiry form.
What if the assistant gives a wrong answer?
Because it answers only from approved texts, a wrong answer usually means a text is out of date. You correct it, and from then on the assistant gives the right answer. Conversations where a customer says something is wrong are flagged so the workshop can read them back.
Does the assistant answer in German or Dutch too?
If you supply or approve the texts in those languages, it can answer in them. That helps with campers from across the border. Without an approved translation it answers in the main site language and says a member of staff can help further.
How much work is it to keep the answers current?
Very little while your services stay the same. When something changes, such as new opening hours or a fabric you no longer handle, you update one text. The list of referred questions shows where answers are missing, so you add what is needed rather than rereading everything.
