GaragePlug is a cloud platform for auto repair workshops and detailing centers. It combines workshop administration with customer communication and business reporting. Staff can manage workflows and appointments, create digital job cards, issue electronic invoices, perform inspections, approve estimates, track parts inventory, record technician time, and maintain vehicle history. The service sends quotes, invoices, inspection reports, service updates, and payment reminders through SMS, email, or WhatsApp. Customers can use a branded app, web booking, self-check-in, and service reminders. Dashboards cover revenue, sales, inventory, technicians, multiple outlets, and other business measures. Gia, its AI advisor, answers calls around the clock, books or reschedules visits, handles service-status calls, and transfers calls to staff. GaragePlug runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with access from desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets. The company lists role-based access, cloud infrastructure, automated backups, onboarding, training, live support, and in-platform chat.
