Shift is an automotive shop assistant that identifies missed revenue opportunities on every repair order by surfacing overdue maintenance, OEM-recommended services, and incomplete vehicle history. The platform gives technicians one-click tools to add overlooked jobs, reducing comebacks, cutting diagnostic time, and minimizing payroll disputes.

Problem
Automotive repair shops routinely lose revenue because technicians miss maintenance opportunities, overlook overdue services, or underprice work on repair orders. Misdiagnoses, inaccurate labor hours, and incomplete vehicle history records further erode profitability, leading to comebacks and disputes that cost shops time and money every day.
Solution
Shift is a repair-order intelligence platform that automatically scans every vehicle and repair order to identify revenue leaks, such as missed maintenance, incorrect pricing, and incomplete service history. It pulls together maintenance schedules, inspection results, and OEM-recommended intervals, then presents overdue or due-soon services directly in the technician's workflow. With one click, a job can be added to the repair order, ensuring no service opportunity is lost. The tool also streamlines diagnostics footprints, cuts comeback rates in half, and reduces payroll conflicts by catching discrepancies early. Designed as a daily sidekick rather than an extra administrative burden, Shift integrates into existing shop operations and surfaces actionable recommendations instantly.
