BDC coverage

A modern BDC has to protect every lead type without turning the team into task chasers.

AI BDC matters when new leads, aged opportunities, missed calls, inbound replies, appointment touches, and manager escalations are all competing for the same people.

The BDC queue is usually bigger than the team.

Fresh leads, old leads, inbound replies, missed calls, and appointment reminders all compete for the same people. AI BDC coverage helps protect the work that usually gets skipped first.

Speed matters, but so does staying with the shopper.

A fast first text is only the start. TECOBI keeps follow-up active after the first contact attempt so higher-funnel buyers are not abandoned too early.

The handoff has to be clean enough for sales to trust.

AI should not create a second disconnected inbox. TECOBI routes engaged shoppers back to people with conversation context and manager-visible activity.

Store workflow

The AI BDC layer belongs where the queue starts to overflow.

TECOBI supports the dealership team at the exact points where manual BDC coverage usually thins out: first response, long-tail nurture, reply handling, and clean handoff.

  • New opportunities receive a text-first response before the lead cools off.
  • Auto Bots® keep working shoppers who are real but not ready on the first attempt.
  • Engaged replies move toward people with the conversation context still attached.

Operating model

Run BDC coverage as a continuous conversation system.

The goal is not to replace the BDC. It is to keep repetitive coverage moving so people can spend more time on the conversations that need judgment.
