Every car in the workshop on one screen, from booked in to done.

Your day, your week, your whole team, visible at a glance. Drag jobs between technicians and time slots in seconds, and AutoChain warns you before a technician is double-booked.

The AutoChain dashboard gives you a live snapshot of today or the current week: revenue from completed work, predicted revenue from scheduled work, and every job by status. No digging, no spreadsheets.

From the first booking to the final invoice, every job has a full history. Vehicle details, work items, parts, notes, photos and videos all live in one place, and follow the car forever.

Technicians press Start, Pause and Done on the work item they are doing. The Live tab shows who is clocked on to what, with a running timer against the estimate, and AutoChain banks the time saved when a job comes in under its estimate.

Carry out a smart, guided vehicle health check on any device: desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile. Flag items as advisory or urgent, record real measurements, and send the customer a live authorisation link they approve with one touch.

Raise clean, VAT-ready invoices from any job and send them with a secure pay-online link. Track what's paid and overdue, issue credit notes, and see where your money comes from with business analytics and accounting reports.

Keep a list of the warranty companies you work with, with their invoice email, payment terms and what they call their claim reference. Bill a job to warranty, choose who pays for each work item, take the customer's excess, and AutoChain raises a warranty invoice and a customer invoice from the one job.

Every invoice and estimate can be printed on A4 with your garage logo, all job details, and VAT options. Hand it to your customer or email it in a single click from the job.

Build itemised estimates with labour, parts and VAT calculated for you, then send a link by email or text. Customers approve or decline each line on their phone, decisions given by phone or in person are recorded with who gave them, and approved work becomes the job.

Customer Intelligence sends a short 0-10 satisfaction survey automatically after every paid invoice, then shows you who is happy, neutral or unhappy, the reasons they gave, how each member of staff is doing and the revenue at risk from unhappy customers.

Take a photo of a parts, tyre or consumables invoice, or upload the PDF. AutoChain reads the supplier, invoice number, date and every line, matches them to your jobs, purchase orders and stock, and shows you everything to check before anything changes.

Enter the reg and AutoChain does the rest. A registration lookup pulls the vehicle's details, DVSA MOT history surfaces any advisories to mention, and postcode lookup fills in a new customer's address.

AutoChain tracks every vehicle's MOT due date and sends branded reminders automatically by email or SMS, at the lead time you choose. Service and advisory reminders are there too, sent from the customer record when you need them.

Every booking can trigger an automatic text reminder to the customer before their appointment, with your garage name, their reg and the time. Fewer forgotten bookings means fewer empty bays.

Stop guessing what's on the shelf. AutoChain keeps a live count of your parts, shows what's awaiting delivery, assigned to open jobs and sold, and deducts parts from stock when the job is invoiced. Parts stock is included in the core plan.

Axel is the AI assistant built into AutoChain. Ask a question in plain English and it finds jobs and invoices, pulls a vehicle's MOT history, checks who's free and opens prefilled booking, estimate and customer forms, so your team spends less time clicking through screens.

Look up repair times, service schedules, wiring diagrams, fault codes and more by registration, without leaving AutoChain. Add HaynesPro labour times straight onto a job or estimate, and let your health checks grade brake wear against manufacturer limits.

Add the AutoChain booking widget to your website and customers can book any time: they enter their reg, choose a service, pick a free slot and leave their details. Requests land in AutoChain for you to confirm. When the work is done, send the invoice with a secure Stripe payment link and it's marked paid when the customer pays.

Run the buying side of your garage from AutoChain. Keep tyre and consumable stock across your warehouses, manage your suppliers, raise purchase orders from a job's parts, search Group Tyre stock at your own trade prices and keep a Shopify store's parts in sync.

Add every member of staff with the right role and a default site, and run holiday and absence requests in AutoChain, with each person's allowance, carry-over and your leave year. Technician specialties make sure MOTs only go to MOT testers.
