Why shops use them

Train once. Catch every step, every job.

01

Step-by-step on every RO.

Brake job, MPI, pre-purchase inspection — build the checklist once, every matching job inherits it. Tech can't move on until each step is checked or skipped with a reason.

02

Photos + notes per step.

Every step gets a photo if needed and a tech note if needed. Both attach to the work order — visible to the customer, the advisor, and on file for the next visit.

03

Built for tablets, works on phones.

No app to install. Tech opens the RO on whatever device is in the bay, works through the list, hits done. Saves to the work order in real time.

How it works

Build it once. Every tech works the same playbook.

Define the steps. Define which require photos. Define which require measurements. Save. From that point on, every matching job uses your shop's checklist — no shortcuts, no missed items.

  • Reusable templates — one per service type
  • Required vs. optional steps clearly marked
  • Photo capture and measurement fields per step
  • Saved to the vehicle for next-visit reference
  • Exports to PDF for customer hand-off or warranty claims

The comeback you don't get is the cheapest one.

Tech checklists catch the missed lug nut, the forgotten oil cap, the unchecked brake fluid before the customer rolls out the door. Every step logged. Every comeback avoided.
