How It Works
"Squealing brakes, 2019 Civic." Right on the dashboard. One field, plain English.
Labor time, parts cost, markup, tax. Calculated from 120+ common repairs. No Googling, no calling parts stores.
Customer gets a text with the price and an Approve button. They tap it. No phone tag, no callbacks.
Estimate approved. Work order created. You’re making money instead of chasing paper.
The Problem
A customer calls about their brakes. You put them on hold. Google the labor time. Call the parts store. Do the math. Call the customer back — they don’t answer. Leave a voicemail. They call back two hours later.
That’s 30–60 minutes of lost bay time per estimate. At $120/hr, that’s $60–120 in lost revenue. Do that five times a day and you’re leaving $300–600 on the table. Every single day.
The big shop software charges $200–400/month and still doesn’t solve this.
