Garage management software built for independent workshops
GarageOS is garage management software designed around the way small UK workshops actually work — bays, jobs, MOTs and walk-ins, not corporate ticket queues.
Instead of stitching together a paper diary, a spreadsheet and three group chats, you get one workshop-first system that runs comfortably from a phone in an oily hand.
Who it's for
Independent garages running 1–5 bays who need every job, customer and invoice in one place — without a week of training.
Today bay board
Colour-coded bays, drag-and-drop jobs, real bay-time scheduling.
Digital job cards
Photos, notes, parts and labour attached to every job — no more paper folders.
Online bookings
Fast Lane menu for MOTs, servicing and quick repairs. Heavy work stays offline.
Customer records
Vehicles, history, contact details and job references linked automatically.
Invoicing & payments
Send a payment request, take card or mark cash — one status per job.
Owner controls
Pause bookings, block lunch, holiday mode, emergency slots per bay.
Why it matters
Most 'garage management software' was written for dealer groups: complex, keyboard-heavy, priced per seat. GarageOS is the opposite. It's built for the owner-operator who is also on the tools, needs to see the day in one glance, and doesn't have time to train the apprentice for a week.
Every screen is mobile-first. The bay board scales from a workshop tablet to a phone at the parts counter. Jobs move between bays with one finger. Job references (GO-XXXX-YYYY-000001) travel with the record from booking to invoice, so nothing gets lost between Workshop, Timeline and Payments.
What you get
- Cut phone-call chaos and voicemail overload
- Stop double-booking bays and missing MOTs
- One source of truth across workshop, timeline and payments
- Ready in an afternoon — if you can use WhatsApp, you can use GarageOS
