AI that gives automotive master mechanics their time back, not another dashboard.
When automotive master mechanics ask us what AI actually changes, the first question we put back is the same one every time: which part of your week, if it disappeared, would change how you feel on a Friday?

Straight answers
What's a typical engagement length for Automotive Master Mechanics?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Do you have proof this works for Automotive Master Mechanics?

Can it help with health and safety records?
It can keep them organised. A business must notify WorkSafe of notifiable events and keep those records for at least five years.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
