How it works
Workshop Wrench connects your counter, floor, and back office so nothing falls through the cracks.
Customers book online or the advisor creates the appointment. All vehicle history and prior notes are surfaced immediately.
Technician completes a photo-backed digital inspection. Findings reach the customer via SMS before any work begins.
Labour and parts are itemised in the estimate. Customer authorises via their phone — no callbacks needed.
RO closes, a compliant invoice is issued, and payment is taken by card or text-to-pay. Revenue updates instantly.
Category · shop OS
Missed hours, weak ARO, and parts you forgot to invoice — most shop software watches those leaks happen without closing them. Workshop Wrench is AU-built shop management that plugs the gaps: bookings and check-in, repair orders on a board with enforced stage transitions, digital vehicle inspections, line-level customer approvals via a tokenised portal (written ACL authority-to-repair on every job), inventory that reserves on approval, and GST-correct tax invoices with a Xero export path. Owner KPIs use documented formulas in AUD — not black-box scores.
Primary search intent: shop management software
US buyers often search "shop management software." AU/UK buyers may prefer workshop or garage phrasing — same product, regional vocabulary.
Buyer problem
Shops buy "management software" and still run approvals in SMS threads and parts in spreadsheets — the OS never becomes the system of record.

Software that runs the operational lifecycle of an auto repair business: customers and vehicles, scheduling, repair orders, inspections, estimates and approvals, parts, invoicing, messaging, and reporting. Strong products also expose ARO and labour efficiency with clear definitions.
