We live in a world that has made technology almost ubiquitous. Many people try to reject it, but we here at A-1 Auto Transport obviously like technology, and we believe it should make our lives better.
That was exactly the idea behind our new Google Assistant Voice Bot, meant to be your personal assistant that will help you find the best solutions for shipping your vehicle. We’ve taken the principles that have been the very basis of this company from the beginning, and used them to help construct a bot that’s designed to help you make the right decision.
What the Bot Does
Shipping your car sounds like the kind of thing you don’t have to worry about very often in life. Except when you do, you’ll quickly see just how difficult it can sometimes be. From finding trustworthy companies to trust them with taking care of your car, making sure they ship to the location you need and somehow make sure the final price doesn’t leave you broke, the hassle can be too much to bear at times.
Well, the Car Shipping for Google Assistant is the solution you need to make the process run smoothly. It’s designed to help you quickly find auto shipping rates, as well as compare them. It will account for the exact locations you’re shipping from and to. Everything is made easier, faster, and more reliable.
The bot is currently available for the following devices:
- Android 6.0+ watches;
- Android 6.0+ TVs;
- Google Home;
- Android 5.0+ phones;
- iOS 10.0+ devices;
- Headphones;
- Smart Displays;
- Android 6.0+ Tablets.
How It Works
The Car Shipping is a feature integrated into Google Assistant, Google’s own version of Siri. You can directly interact with GA to perform a variety of tasks, like opening an app on your phone or tablet or start playing music.
If you’re looking for something, you simply have to directly ask GA a question and it will try to help you come up with Google results that can help you, and in some cases even give you the answer.
For instance, if you ask GA “what are the best Mexican restaurants in LA,” it will most likely provide a list where you can browse restaurants. If, however, you ask “who won the Nobel peace prize in 1990,” it will simply give you the answer because it has the ability to tap into Google’s features and take the answer itself.
From this, two things are clear: GA is great for getting quick answers to trivia questions but other than that it’s just an easier way to search stuff. Well, not exactly.
Google Assistant has something called “Actions,” which is a variety of tasks or features. Sometimes, the assistant is directly programmed to help you perform the action, such as making a phone call. But in other cases, third parties can step in and help out a bit to make Google Assistant’s help a lot more dependable.
This is essentially how A-1 Auto Transport got into the picture. The idea was to help Google Assistant give better advice when someone is in need of shipping a vehicle. All you have to do is open Google Assistant and ask to talk to Car Shipping or something like that, and the bot will step in to help you.
