This is exactly what your customer sees on their phone.
The problem
You’re a great mechanic. The paperwork makes you look small.
Handwritten estimates
A number scribbled on a napkin or a torn invoice pad doesn’t say “trust me with your car.” Customers hesitate, and some walk.
Chasing approvals
Phone tag and “let me think about it” kill your day. You need a yes you can start on — in writing.
Chasing payments
The job’s done and you’re still texting for the money. No clean invoice, no easy way for them to pay, no record.
Looking small next to “real shops”
The dealer and the chain down the road have slick software. You do the better work — you just don’t look the part yet.
How it works
Estimate to approved in four taps.
Scan the VIN
Point your camera at the windshield. GarageInvoice decodes the year, make, and model automatically — no typing.
Build the estimate
Add parts and labor as line items, snap a few photos of the problem, and your total adds up as you go.
Send the customer a link
Email the estimate in one tap, or share the link however you text your customer. It shows your shop name, the vehicle, and every line — clean and professional.
They tap Approve
Your customer approves from their own phone. You get the go-ahead in writing, get paid faster, and look like a real shop.
Everything in one app
Built for one person and a phone.
One-tap approval
Send an estimate as a private link. The customer taps Approve — you get a yes in writing, timestamped.
VIN scan
Scan the windshield VIN and auto-fill the vehicle from the NHTSA database. No more typing 17 characters by hand.
Invoices & payment links
Turn an approved estimate into a numbered invoice with your payment links. Clean records, no more chasing the money.
Works in the garage
Concrete walls and dead spots don’t stop you. Build estimates offline — they sync the moment you’re back on signal.
Spanish-first
The whole app works in Spanish or English — from day one. Send an estimate in your customer’s language.
Emails that send themselves
Mark a job done and a “your car is ready” email goes out on its own. Issue the invoice and it’s emailed too — always in your customer’s language.
En español, de verdad
En español, de verdad — desde el primer día.
GarageInvoice no es una traducción a medias. Toda la app — los presupuestos, las facturas, el enlace que aprueba tu cliente — funciona en español natural, no en “español de robot.” La competencia solo habla inglés. Tus clientes, no.
Pricing
Start free. Upgrade when it pays for itself.
A fraction of the price of shop-management software — because you’re one person, not a fleet.
