Everything your garage needs in one system

Complete garage management software - from the front desk to the shop floor to the books. Book cars in, track jobs, take payment and manage your team, all in one place.

Bookings & the workshop diary

Diary & smart scheduling
Apple-style month calendar plus a live timeline of every ramp. See cars in by time, by bay or by mechanic. Guided book-in finds the next free slot, spots clashes and checks the ramp can do the job.
Your own booking site
A branded booking page in your garage's colours that takes bookings 24/7 - or drop the booking widget straight onto your existing website with one line of code.
Digital job sheets
Parts, labour, fees and discounts with running totals. Start a job straight from a booking and share a live status link customers can follow from booked to ready.

On the shop floor

Mechanic mobile workspace
A phone-first view for your techs: their assigned jobs, big-tap status buttons, add notes, flag issues, tap to call the customer and request parts without leaving the ramp.
Parts ordering desk
Requests from the floor land on the parts desk. Mark ordered, received and fitted, with urgent jobs first - everyone sees where a part is.
Clock in / out & timesheets
Staff clock on and off from the workspace home. Hours this week are totalled automatically for wages and job costing.

Vehicles that carry their history

Live UK reg lookup
Type a registration and pull make, model and the full DVSA MOT history - passes, failures, mileage and advisories - straight onto the job sheet.
Cross-garage car passport
See genuine service history for a car even if the work was done elsewhere - what was done and when, with pricing and personal details kept private.
Network safety flags
Warn other garages about a cloned plate, dangerous vehicle or non-payment - GDPR-safe, registration-only, and it pops up the moment that car is booked in.

Invoicing, payments & the books

Invoices, quotes & payments
Build quotes and invoices, email or PDF them, take deposits and card payments through Stripe, send a pay-by-link or take cash and card in person. Partial payments handled.
Expenses & receipts
Log money out with a snap of the receipt from your phone, sorted by category with VAT tracked - so your figures always reconcile.
Reports & dashboards
VAT return summary, profit & loss, revenue and cash-flow graphs, plus per-job profit and margin. Enough to run the books and hand clean numbers to your accountant.

Customers & your team

Customer & vehicle records
A tidy CRM for every customer and car. Import your existing list from a spreadsheet in minutes - customers and vehicles together.
MOT & service reminders
Automatic reminders driven by real DVSA MOT dates bring customers back - fewer missed MOTs and more repeat work.
Rota, holidays & HR
Default weekly shift patterns, one-off changes, self-service holiday and sick requests, staff records, qualifications and payslip documents in one place.

Runs the whole business

Multi-location & ramps
Run several sites and ramps, each with their own capabilities - MOT, service, tyres, diagnostics, valeting.
Announcements & notifications
Post team announcements and get live in-app and browser notifications for reassigned jobs, parts arriving, holiday requests and more.
Accountant & MTD exports
One-click exports formatted for QuickBooks, Xero and QuickBooks Desktop - plus a VAT summary and plain CSV - so your accountant imports your figures instead of retyping them.

Nobody else has this

Every car carries its history between garages

When a car is booked in, MechManager shows the work it's had done - even at other garages on the network. You quote with confidence and spot the jobs a car is due, while customer details and pricing stay private to whoever did the work.

  • Anonymised, registration-only sharing
  • Personal data never leaves your garage
  • Network safety flags for cloned plates, non-payers and dangerous vehicles

DVSA MOT history integration

Real MOT history, not a guess

  • MOT-due-soon list on your dashboard
  • Advisories shown on the job sheet for the tech
