To create a job

🤖 AI & Automation — The Performance Intelligence Layer

WrenchPilot's proprietary Performance Intelligence Layer brings real AI to every workflow in your shop. This is architectural AI — built into the core data layer, not a bolt-on feature.

  • Intelligent work order creation — Automation that handles the complexity of heavy-duty repairs. Pattern recognition and labor time recommendations so you create jobs in under 15 seconds.
  • Automated parts suggestions — AI-driven reorder alerts and margin optimization so you never lose a repair to missing parts.
  • Predictive KPI alerts — Real-time monitoring of technician efficiency, parts margin, and bay utilization. Get notified the moment something needs attention.
  • Up to 90% reduction in manual admin — Shops report saving hours every week on data entry, invoicing, and reporting. The AI works in the background so your team can focus on fixing trucks.
  • Invoice and receipt scan in chat — Upload a parts invoice or receipt image in the job assistant; the AI extracts line items, matches the supplier, applies your markup, and lets you add the parts to the job in one flow. Same pipeline as the dedicated Parts & Receipts scan.

Real-Time Technician Time Intelligence

Not just time tracking—labor cost per minute, billable vs non-billable visibility, and zero orphan time. The most intuitive technician time tracking for heavy-duty shops, including Smart Logs for intelligent activity tracking.

  • Tap-to-clock mobile logging — Technicians clock in and out from their phones; time automatically associates to the active job. No manual job selection required for standard flow.
  • Smart Logs — When techs clock out, they can log what they did: split time across specific tasks (action items) so every hour is tied to the right line item. You get a clear view of shop activity: who worked on what and for how long, with no guesswork or orphan time.
  • Automatic job association — When a tech switches jobs, one tap reassigns the clock; previous time stays on the correct job. Prevents orphan time and revenue leakage.
  • Forget to clock out? — Supervisors see live status; corrections take seconds. No end-of-day guesswork or lost billable hours.
  • Live labor cost per minute — Each job shows real-time labor cost as time is logged. Billable vs non-billable heat tracking so you see margin risk before the job closes.
  • Technician efficiency analytics — Utilization, cost per billable hour, and productivity metrics in one command view. State-of-the-art tech time tracking—it doesn't get more intuitive than WrenchPilot.

Payments & Financial Stack — QuickBooks & Stripe Integrated

Native Stripe integration, payment links, one-click invoice emails, printable PDFs, and QuickBooks Online sync with live progress and rollback. Real-time revenue visibility and no nickel-and-dime per-user fees.

  • Native Stripe integration — Card and ACH, automatic fee handling, secure payment links. Customers pay from the invoice email or customer portal. Stripe Terminal supported for in-shop card payments.
  • One-click invoice emails — Send professional invoices with payment link. Printable PDFs for in-shop or mail. Estimates and approval tracking built in.
  • QuickBooks Online sync — Two-way sync: invoices, payments, and customer data. Run a full sync with live progress (streaming), view sync run history, rollback a run if needed, or clear sync history. Automatic reconciliation and deposit tracking so your books match.
  • Integrations hub — One place to connect and manage Stripe, Stripe Terminal, QuickBooks, and email. See connection status at a glance and toggle sync or configure each integration.
  • After payment — Dashboard updates in real time; you can close jobs, sync to QB, and see revenue and AR in one place. No spreadsheets.

Inventory Management — Powerful, Not Bloated

We don't sell a separate inventory module you'll never fully use. We give you parts catalog, core tracking, vendor tracking, parts-to-job linking, and margin protection—without feature sprawl. We save the parts invoice image for every receipt.

  • Parts catalog and parts-to-job linking
  • Core tracking and vendor tracking
  • Stock alerts and margin protection
  • Bulk price updates and historical cost tracking

Estimates & Approval — Send, Track, Never Lose a Quote

Create estimates from the job, send them to customers by email, and capture approvals—all in one flow. Full estimate history and approval tracking so you never lose a quote.

  • Send estimates by email — One-click send: the customer gets a professional estimate with line items, labor, parts, and totals. They can review and approve from their device.
  • Approval flow — Capture when the customer approves. Full estimate history on the job so you always know what was quoted and what was approved before you convert to invoice.
  • Printable estimate & parts-quote PDFs — Generate and print estimate or parts-quote documents for in-shop or mail. Same totals and line items as the digital estimate.
  • Quote to invoice — Once approved, create the invoice from the job in two clicks. Labor and parts flow from the estimate so nothing is lost in the handoff.

Customer & Vehicle Intake — Built for Shops

Flows designed for diesel and truck shops: capture vehicle and repair documentation from the bay or road and attach it to the service order. From intake to final inspection, every job has a clear record—faster documentation, fewer disputes, and a better experience for fleet and retail customers alike.

  • Capture vehicle and service documentation from phone or tablet — attached to the job instantly
  • Clear history on every service order — intake, damage, parts, final result
  • Truck & vehicle service history — View full service history by VIN or unit number: all past jobs, action items, mileage per visit, and parts used. Editable mileage and expandable parts per job; sort by newest or oldest. One place for fleet and retail vehicle history.

Accurate Customer Records

Keep customer and vehicle records accurate and up to date with less manual entry. One source of truth for compliance, invoicing, and communication—built for shops that work with fleets and want clean, reliable data.

  • Faster, more accurate customer and company details on every job
  • One source of truth for customer records — better for compliance, estimates, and invoicing

Customer & Fleet Experience

Customer portal, fleet dashboard, vehicle and service images, service history, and digital estimates with approval tracking. Customers stay informed; you close more work with less back-and-forth.

  • Customer portal and fleet dashboard — one place for status and documents
  • Vehicle image uploads and service photo uploads — full visual history
  • Digital estimates and approval tracking — customers approve from their device
  • Service history timeline and status notifications — fewer "where's my truck?" calls

Reporting & Command Center Metrics

Live dashboards and KPIs so you run the shop from one place: daily revenue, gross profit, labor efficiency, and profit per job type. No exporting to spreadsheets.
