One platform organizes your entire shop.
Independent shops run on too many disconnected tools. FixMyCarDude replaces all of them - scheduling, estimates, customer updates, technician workflows - in one cloud-based system.
Run your shop from a single dashboard.
Digital estimates, appointment scheduling, technician job assignments, invoicing, and real-time profit tracking - built for 1-5 bay independent shops. No paper. No switching apps.
Your customers deserve better than a phone call and a prayer.
Give them a free app to book, approve estimates, and track their repair in real time. Higher approval rates, fewer calls, more repeat business.
