ShortLoop is Reynolds Certified for ERA (DMS) and CRM

R & R.png

AI that works inside your Reynolds DMS and CRM, not around it.


Reynolds and Reynolds dealers who are in the market for voice AI might find most vendors to be just expensive answering machines, because AI without integration just creates more work.

ShortLoop integrates directly with ERA-IGNITE and FOCUS CRM, reading real customer records from within the system, answering on the first ring, and guiding callers through booking appointments, status updates, and even capturing sales leads from missed calls.


What's New

Every call answered with full customer context

ShortLoop’s phone AI pulls customer profiles and vehicle service history directly from ERA-IGNITE before the conversation begins, so responses are accurate and relevant from the first word, whether it's a returning customer or a new one.

Deeper dealership-specific customization 

The AI captures intent, selects the right vehicle, applies op codes and remarks, and books the appointment. Call notes, appointment details, op codes, and updated customer information are written back into ERA-IGNITE automatically. Advisors have full context when they follow up.

Outbound that actually knows the customer 

ShortLoop's outbound AI uses real customer and vehicle records to run targeted campaigns, including maintenance reminders, no-show reschedules, and recall notifications. Every interaction is personalized, even at scale, whether via call, text, or a combination of both.

New Leads Added into your CRM

ShortLoop connects directly to the Reynolds and Reynolds CRM, so every inbound sales call, whether answered or missed is captured and recorded. The AI handles inventory questions, schedules test drives, and logs the interaction directly into the FOCUS CRM without any manual input.
