Live now — founding shops lock launch pricing for life

The first shop platform
with a brain.

The big platforms were built a decade ago — before AI could read a photo of a leak, remember a conversation, or learn from your shop’s own fixes. Mech Correct was built after. Every ticket, text, part, and dollar lives in one connected system — and the busywork runs itself.

Why we win

The features the big platforms sell as add-ons.
Or haven't built at all.

We studied Tekmetric, Shopmonkey, AutoLeap, Shop-Ware, Fullbay, and Mitchell 1 — then built past them. Here's the arsenal, all included in one subscription.

NOBODY ELSE HAS THIS BUILT IN
🤖

AI Tech Copilot — with eyes and memory

Your tech snaps a photo of the leak, talks to it hands-free, reports test results back, and it updates the diagnosis. Grounded in federal recall data and your own shop's past fixes — real outcomes, not theory. Standalone AI tools charge $179/month for less, in a separate app.

ONLY MECH CORRECT
🔗

Shared VIN History Network

A car rolls in that another member shop serviced — your writer sees the sanitized service history at VIN scan, before write-up. Names, prices, and private notes never cross shops. The more shops join, the smarter every shop gets. No one else has this.

THEIR PAID ADD-ON — STANDARD HERE
📲

Revenue on autopilot

Appointment reminders the day before. "You declined the brakes — still happy to help" two weeks after. Maintenance nudges at six months, a win-back at twelve, and a birthday text on the day — all in your own words, from an editable template library with auto-filling tags. All automatic, all guardrailed, every send in your inbox thread. The incumbents sell this as a marketing add-on.

THEIRS COSTS EXTRA
🍕

The pizza tracker for repairs

Text customers one link. They watch their car move — checked in → estimate → in the bay → ready — with your estimate approval and inspection photos one tap away, and the balance once invoiced. The "any update on my car?" phone call, gone.

INCLUDED, NOT GATED
🧾

QuickBooks Online — one-tap sync

Connect once. Every invoice pushes customer, invoice, and payment straight into your books — RO number as the invoice number, no re-typing, no duplicates on re-sync. Plus free .IIF and CSV exports for QuickBooks Desktop.

NOBODY ELSE EVEN TRIES
📴

Built to ride out internet blips.

Your work is saved instantly and syncs across every device the moment the connection comes back. And for shops that want it, a fully offline standalone mode is available — ask us about it.

A car just pulled in

Watch one visit run itself.

This is the part the old platforms can't do. Every step below talks to the next one automatically — the chips show what the system did on its own while your people did the actual work.

7:58 AM · THE LANE

Scan the door jamb. The car introduces itself.

One VIN scan and the writer is looking at the owner, the tag, the mileage-due services, the full spec sheet — and what other shops on the network did to this exact car. New customer? The file builds itself from the scan.

→ owner & history matched→ network VIN history pulled→ services-due flagged from mileage
8:01 AM · CHECK-IN

Walk-around, photos, signature. Your techs are protected.

Every ding documented before a wrench comes out. The customer e-signs the condition report from their phone — and gets their live status link in the same text.

→ status tracker texted to customer→ signed condition report on file
8:07 AM · THE BAY

The tech asks the AI. With a photo.

P0301, rough idle. The tech snaps the plug, talks to the copilot hands-free, and gets a ranked diagnostic plan — grounded in federal recall data, this car's history, and the last time your shop fixed the same thing. Test results go back in; the diagnosis updates. No forum-digging, no leaving the bay.

→ photo read by AI→ your past fixes recalled→ recalls & complaints checked→ findings saved to the job
8:14 AM · THE PHONE

The estimate sells itself, line by line.

Findings become estimate lines in one tap. The customer gets it by text with the inspection photos — approves the brakes, holds the wipers, from the parking lot at work. The board shows "viewed" the moment they open it.

→ estimate texted with photos→ line-by-line approval recorded→ declined work banked for follow-up
8:20 AM · PARTS

Parts order themselves onto a PO. Prices set themselves.

Checked lines become a purchase order; the job flips to "waiting on parts" on its own. When the parts land, the real cost syncs onto the ticket, your pricing matrix sets retail, and the job flips back to ready — the tech never chased a delivery.

→ PO created from the estimate→ landed cost synced to the job→ matrix priced the part→ job state flipped automatically
12:45 PM · PICKUP

Paid, booked, reviewed — before the keys are handed over.

Text-to-pay closes the balance from the customer's phone; the ticket marks itself paid at zero. The invoice and payment post to QuickBooks with one tap. A review request follows. Two weeks from now, the declined wipers text goes out — by itself.

→ payment recorded, ticket closed→ QuickBooks synced→ review link texted→ follow-up scheduled automatically

🚚 New — Towing & roadside dispatch

Now run your wrecker inside Mech Correct.

Take the call, assign a driver and truck, move the job from requested to delivered, and price it by the mile — hook fee, mileage, wait and storage, totaled as you type.

The Mech Correct advantage

A vehicle's history shouldn't stay locked in one shop

A car you've never touched rolls in. With the opt-in Shared VIN History Network, you can see the sanitized service record other Mech Correct shops have logged for that exact VIN — what was done, when, and at what mileage. You diagnose with the full story, not a blank slate.

  • ${chk}Opt-in and private — off until you turn it on
  • ${chk}Shares only sanitized service events: date, mileage, services performed
  • ${chk}Never customer names, pricing, or your private notes
  • ${chk}Contribute to read — a fair, shop-to-shop exchange
Founding shops build the network first — and get the most out of it as it grows.

Questions

Good to know

How do I get started?

Go to mechcorrect.app, create an account, and you're in your own shop in about 60 seconds — no card, no sales call. Load the sample shop to explore, or add your first customer and go.

What is the AI Service Advisor?

A diagnostic assistant built into the app. Pick a vehicle (or type one in), paste the trouble codes from your scan tool, and ask a plain-English question. Codes are decoded instantly, the vehicle's open NHTSA safety recalls and complaint history are pulled in as sources, and you get an ordered diagnostic plan in about ten seconds. It never invents OEM specs — every answer ends with a reminder to verify against OEM service data before the repair.

Do my customers need to install anything?

No. Digital inspections, estimate approvals, payment links, and online booking are all just links — your customer taps and sees everything in their phone's browser.

Can customers pay by card from a text?

Yes. From any repair order, one click texts the customer a secure Stripe payment link for their balance. They pay on their phone, and the repair order marks itself paid.

Can customers book online?

Yes. Every shop gets its own booking page to link from a website, Google profile, or social page. Requests land on your schedule marked as online requests, and you confirm by text.

Can I use it on a phone or tablet at the counter?

Yes — and it installs as an app. On Android and desktop Chrome you'll see an "Install app" button right in the sidebar; on iPhone use Share → Add to Home Screen. Full-screen, its own icon, same live data for the whole team. A Google Play listing is on the way.

Can my whole team use it?

Yes. Invite advisors and technicians with roles that control what they can see and change. Technician logins automatically get the money-free tech view.

What do my technicians see?

Technician logins get a money-free view of the shop: the job, tech time in hours, parts and specs — never prices, totals, or invoices. Techs land in My Bay with their assigned work, can flag the front desk in one tap (need parts, need approval, question), and get their own My Hours page — credited hours per job with a Paid ✓ once the ticket closes, plus a printable statement. Assignment and dispatch stay with the front desk, and owners can preview the app as a technician anytime.

Can I bill warranty and insurance jobs?

Yes. Flag any repair order as customer, warranty, insurance, internal, or fleet. Mech Correct tracks the claim or authorization number and payer, splits an insurance deductible between the customer and insurer, and lets you mark individual parts and labor as warranty-covered.

What is the Shared VIN History Network?

An optional, private network of Mech Correct shops. When you opt in, a car you've never serviced can show you the sanitized service history other member shops logged for that same VIN — the services performed, the date, and the mileage. It shares only that: never customer names or contact info, never pricing, never your private notes. It's off until you turn it on, and you can turn it off anytime.

Is my shop's data secure?

Each shop's data is fully isolated at the database level, encrypted, and backed up. Export everything to JSON anytime — your data is yours.

What will it cost?

Plans start at $199/mo per shop, everything included — no modules, no add-ons, and the AI Service Advisor is in every plan. Comparable platforms start at $179–$239 before add-ons pile up. Annual billing is one month free. Every shop gets 14 days free with no card. When you subscribe, checkout includes a 7-day trial period before your first charge. Shops that join the founding list lock launch pricing for life.
