Fixes for the things your shop software makes you do by hand.

No new system to learn. Each fix is built around the software you already run, scoped in writing, and priced before work starts.

Common fixes, written up the way a tech writes a repair order.

Concern: “It won't remember my fleet's heavy-duty labor rate.”

Cause:The software can't set rates that specific.

Fix:Rate rules by customer, vehicle or job, applied automatically.

Concern: “My bookkeeper fixes the QuickBooks numbers every month.”

Cause:What the shop software sends doesn't match how the books are set up.

Fix:A QuickBooks connection built to match your books.

Concern: “I got a phone approval and wrote it on a sticky note.”

Cause:There's no clean place to record a verbal approval.

Fix:Phone approvals recorded with what Colorado's repair law asks for (date, time, number called, who gave and took the approval), plus a warning before a bill goes over the estimate by 10% or $25, whichever is less.

Concern: “I file sales tax for three different cities.”

Cause:Some Colorado cities collect their own sales tax.

Fix:Totals sorted by city so you or your bookkeeper can file. Not tax advice.

Concern: “I need a report it just doesn't have.”

Cause:Built-in reports stop short of what owners actually ask.

Fix:The report you want, delivered to your inbox every Monday.

Concern: “We type the same thing into two programs.”

Cause:The two programs aren't connected.

Fix:A connection between them, so nothing is typed twice.

How fixes are priced and delivered

  • Fixed price in writing before work starts
  • You own and keep what you paid for
  • Changes are quoted before they're made
  • No long-term contract
Do you work outside Boulder?

Yes. Calls and the checkup work anywhere in Colorado. In-person visits are easiest near Boulder.

What does a fix cost?

It depends on the fix. You get a fixed price in writing and decide before any work starts. No long-term contract, and the price in the quote is the price.

Who owns what's built for me?

You can use what you paid for for as long as you like. Similar work for another shop may use the same general approach, but never your data or your name. Details are in the terms.
