For auto service professionals

Keep your bays full and your schedule confirmed.

Automated SMS appointment reminders for mechanics and auto technicians who already use Google Calendar to manage service bookings.

The reality

An empty bay is revenue you can't recover from that day.

  • ×Customers forget drop-off times and show up late or not at all
  • ×Staff spend time chasing customers by phone between jobs
  • ×Same-day cancellations leave expensive workshop time unfilled
  • ×No easy way to see which bookings are confirmed

Customers show up on time, every time.

  • Reminders sent automatically 24h and 2h before each booking
  • Customers confirm or cancel via link; status updates in your dashboard
  • Works with your existing Google Calendar; no new system to learn
  • Set up once; reminders send automatically for every appointment
