Your shop deserves better than a monthly subscription.
Appointment scheduling, vehicle-history CRM, digital invoicing, parts inventory, and bay management — custom-built for your auto shop. No monthly software subscriptions eating into your margins.
The problem
Shop software shouldn't cost more than a tech.
ShopWare, Mitchell, Tekmetric — $200–$400/month per location. They charge you monthly for scheduling, invoicing, and CRM features that should just work, and your data lives inside their product.
We build a custom platform tailored to how your shop actually operates. Your workflows. Your invoice templates. Your customer-communication style. One-time build, minimal hosting cost — you keep your margins.
Everything your shop needs.
6 modules · all yoursScheduling
Fewer no-shows.
Online booking with service-type selection, bay availability, and estimated duration. Automated SMS/email reminders keep the lift full.
Vehicle-history CRM
Drives repeat business.
Complete vehicle history per customer — services performed, parts used, mileage at service. Automated maintenance reminders bring them back.
Estimates & invoicing
Approve online, pay any way.
Professional digital estimates customers approve from their phone. Convert to invoice on completion — accept payment via Zelle, Venmo, or card.
Parts inventory
Know your margin per repair.
Track parts on hand, set reorder points, and log parts used per job. Real-time cost-per-repair and margin, not a monthly guess.
Bay management
Replaces the whiteboard.
Visual bay-status board — which tech is on what car, estimated completion, and job priority. Everyone sees the floor at a glance.
Reports & analytics
One dashboard.
Revenue per bay, average ticket size, tech productivity, parts-cost ratio, and customer retention — the metrics you run the shop by.
Built for how shops run
Built around
your workflow.
Every shop runs differently — appointment-only or walk-in heavy, single-brand or everything that rolls in. Cookie-cutter software forces you to adapt to its workflow. We build around yours: your service menu, your bay layout, your communication preferences. The result feels like it was always there — because it was built specifically for your shop.
Three shops, one platform.

Shields · Murray · AA Auto
Three independent auto shops on one shared CRM platform. Per-shop Postgres on isolated Proxmox VMs, a runtime integration-plugin architecture, Authentik SSO, and Caddy edge routing. Each shop gets the integrations it needs, none of the ones it doesn't — new shops onboard in hours, not weeks. Replaced per-shop SaaS subscriptions with software the shops own.
