AI Operations Manager for auto repair shops

Stop losing work you already found. Fill the bays with it.

VERA writes up repair order estimates, packages inspection photos for the customer, chases the work they deferred, reminds drivers by mileage, and keeps fleet accounts current - while your advisors stay in complete control by approving every action.

Powering independent shops from two bays to a full service drive

Your service drive runs on approval.

Three simple steps. Nothing happens automatically.

Stop wearing every hat

Stop letting good work drive away.

The work is already on your inspection sheets. It gets lost between a busy advisor, a customer who said not today, and a follow-up nobody had time to make.

Declined work never comes back

A yellow finding from March is revenue sitting in your own records. VERA re-prices it and drafts the follow-up with the original photos attached.

Estimate approvals stall

Cars sit on the lift waiting for a callback. VERA drafts the estimate text with pricing and photos so the advisor sends it in one tap.

Inspections nobody sees

A tech's photos only sell work if the customer looks at them. VERA turns the findings into something readable, not a raw checklist.

Customers you never see again

Mileage intervals are the easiest reminder in the business and the easiest to skip. VERA calculates who is due and writes each one.

Fleet accounts drifting

Vans skip their PM interval quietly until something breaks. VERA flags each vehicle past due and drafts the scheduling email to the fleet manager.

Reviews and rankings

Your reputation decides who calls after a check-engine light. VERA drafts a review request after each ticket and keeps your profile current.

What VERA does for you

Everything a great service advisor does - on your approval.

VERA proposes the work; your advisor decides what happens. Here is what that means for an independent shop.

01

Write up estimates in seconds

Tech findings become a clean line-item estimate with parts, labor hours, and tax, ready for the advisor to check and send.

02

Make inspections sell

Red and yellow findings assembled with the tech's photos, plain-language captions, and pricing, so the customer understands the recommendation.

03

Recover declined work systematically

Every deferred job gets tracked, re-priced at today's parts cost, and re-offered at the right interval instead of being forgotten.

04

Bring customers back by mileage

VERA calculates the next interval from the miles at the last visit and drafts a reminder with two open slots attached.

05

Keep fleet accounts on schedule

Per-vehicle PM tracking for commercial accounts, with the scheduling email to the fleet manager already written.

06

Grow without another advisor

Handle more repair orders and more follow-up without adding a salary at the counter.

Ask in plain English

Tell VERA what you need, in your own words.

The kind of thing auto repair ask for every day. VERA drafts it and waits for your approval.

Write up the estimate for RO #1184.

From the field

Built for how auto repair actually work.

We were finding the work and then losing it. VERA pulls every declined job from the last ninety days, re-prices it, and writes the follow-up with the original photos. That list alone keeps a bay busy.

Owner, Independent Repair Shop
My advisor used to spend the whole morning writing estimates. Now VERA turns the tech's findings into a line-item estimate and he just checks it and sends it. Cars come off the lift hours earlier.
K
Karen Duplessis
Shop Manager, General Auto Service
Customers do not read a checklist. VERA takes the tech's photos and writes it up so a normal person understands why the brakes matter. Approval rates went up and nobody feels sold to.

Mileage reminders were always the thing I meant to set up. VERA figures out who is due from the last visit and drafts every message. I approve a batch on Monday and the schedule fills itself.

Sheila Norwood
Owner, Family Auto Repair
We run maintenance for two contractors' vans. VERA tracks every vehicle's interval and writes the email to the fleet manager when one slips. No more finding out because a van broke down.

Duane Ferreira
Fleet Service Manager
The part I like most is that nothing goes out without a person looking at it. Every text to a customer is something one of us read and approved first. That matters when it is somebody's car.

What credits get you

Real per-action costs from the product.

  • Draft a post, email, or reply3 credits
  • Create a full content calendar25 credits
  • Research your competitors25 credits
  • Analyze business data or a report20–50 credits
  • Run an approved automation5–25 credits
  • Heavy agent task (web + tools)50–150 credits

Your plan’s monthly credits work across all of these, mix and match drafts, research, and automations however you like.

How credits work

What uses credits?
AI work: drafting content, research, analysis, and running approved automations. Simple chats cost the least; heavy agent tasks cost more.
Do unused credits roll over?
Your monthly plan allowance resets each billing cycle. Credit packs you buy separately roll over and don't expire.
Can I buy more credits?
Yes, add credit packs anytime (from $10 for 500 credits), or turn on auto top-up so work never stalls.
What are the plan limits?
Each plan includes a set number of seats, connected integrations, and scheduled tasks (see each card). Approval and automation capabilities also step up by plan.
What does that look like in practice?
Using the per-action costs above, Growth's 2,500 monthly credits cover roughly 800 drafted posts, or 100 competitor research runs, or 100 full content calendars a month, mix and match however you work.
What do I get during the 7-day trial?
A limited pool of trial credits to explore VERA, enough to evaluate it, not the full paid allowance. Upgrade anytime and your selected plan's full monthly credits and features unlock immediately.
What happens when I run out of credits?
The next AI action pauses before it runs (nothing is half-charged) and VERA prompts you to buy a credit pack or upgrade your plan. Work already completed is unaffected, and your monthly credits refill at the start of the next billing cycle. Turn on auto top-up and VERA adds a pack automatically so nothing stalls.

Answers first

Frequently asked questions.

01Will VERA text my customers on its own?

No. VERA never sends an estimate, a reminder, or a payment request by itself. It drafts everything and waits for an advisor to approve, edit, or decline.

02How does the declined-work follow-up work?

VERA reads the deferred jobs off past repair orders, re-prices them at today's parts cost, ranks them by urgency and ticket value, and drafts a follow-up with the original inspection photos attached.

03Can it write up an estimate from the tech's findings?

Yes. VERA turns findings into a line-item estimate with parts, labor hours, shop supplies, and tax. Your advisor reviews the numbers before the customer sees anything.

04Can it send inspection photos to the customer?

Yes. VERA packages red and yellow findings with the tech's photos and plain-language captions into an inspection the customer can actually read, queued for approval.

05How do mileage-based service reminders work?

VERA uses the miles recorded at each visit and your interval settings to work out who is due, then drafts a reminder with open appointment slots. Anyone with an open repair order is skipped.

06Does it handle fleet accounts?

Yes. VERA tracks preventive maintenance per vehicle for commercial accounts and drafts the scheduling email to the fleet manager when vans fall behind.

07Can I review everything before it happens?

Always. VERA is approval-first by design: propose → approve → execute. Nothing external happens without your say-so, and every action is logged.
