What you get on this side.
AI Diagnosis in every plan
Trouble codes and photos in, an ordered test plan out. It checks NHTSA recalls, complaints, and service bulletins, and it never invents OEM specs.
One price with everything in it
$199 / $329 / $479 a month. Every feature in every plan, and annual billing gives you one month free.
Built with working techs
Technician logins see the job, the clock, and the specs, never your prices. Techs flag the desk in one tap, and My Hours shows credited hours and a paid mark when the ticket closes.
Your data stays yours
Import from Tekmetric, Shop-Ware, Mitchell 1, or any CSV. Download a full JSON backup of your shop whenever you want.
Declined work and failed inspection items wait on the Follow-ups list.
