Does Hammer work with eLead?

By the Hammer team · Reviewed August 18, 2026

Yes. Hammer answers every connected lead in under 5 seconds and writes the appointment into eLead. No CRM switch. Live in under 48 hours, starting at $99/mo.

The desk keeps eLead. Hammer is the first-reply layer on top of it.

What that looks like on eLead

A lead hits Marketplace, Messenger, ads, CarGurus, AutoTrader, OEM, SMS, or another connected source.
Hammer texts back in under 5 seconds, with real inventory and your store's voice.
Follow-up keeps going. The AI re-reads the thread daily. You edit copy and timing in the Hammer dashboard.
When they book, the appointment is in eLead. Your closer still desks the deal.

Inbound calls are transcribed and followed up by text. A human can pause the AI or let it continue when they leave the thread.

What it is not

Not a eLead replacement. Not a migration. Not an AI voice caller. You do not buy a new system of record to get a first text out tonight.
