WorkshopOS — Bays, vans and a site that fills the diary.
WorkshopOS is garage, MOT-bay and mobile-callout software. Type a registration and it fills oil, timing, tyres, service due and labour — then you create the job. It runs the bay or van diary, estimates, invoicing and live tracking on emergency callouts, plus your domain and local pages for MOT, service, mobile tyre and mobile mechanic search. The product is still in development.
What is WorkshopOS?
WorkshopOS is garage, MOT-bay and mobile-callout software. Type a registration and it fills oil, timing, tyres, service due and labour — then you create the job. It runs the bay or van diary, estimates, invoicing and live tracking on emergency callouts, plus your domain and local pages for MOT, service, mobile tyre and mobile mechanic search. The product is still in development.
The problem it solves
Most garages still run the diary on paper, then rebuild every estimate in WhatsApp — so bays sit empty and MOT reminders go out late. Mobile tyre and mobile mechanics lose the same hours on “where are you?” threads, with no live pin and no technical data on the van.
How WorkshopOS works
- 1Type the registration. Oil, timing, tyres, service due and labour times come back on the vehicle — create the job from that.
- 2Book the bay or the van on one planner. Emergency callouts send a live track link; scheduled work can stay on ETA.
- 3Your domain and local pages take MOT, service, mobile tyre and mobile mechanic bookings from search.
What's inside
From the registration
Registration in. Oil spec and quantity, timing type, tyre sizes and pressures, service due and labour times out. One tap creates the job. The data sits on the job card, not in a second window.
Callout is vans, not bays
Mobile tyre and mobile mechanics share this pack: van diary, vehicle data from the registration, your domain, and a live pin on emergency callouts. It is not a sixth OS. Scheduled mobile work can stay on ETA; the map is for “where are you?” jobs.
Pro is another address
Multi-site means a second workshop — Reading and Slough, not a third ramp in the same building. Each site keeps its own diary and MOT bays, and its own local pages. Extra bays at one garage stay on Growth.

Co-driver on WorkshopOS
Customers still message the business. Co-driver sits on that thread. It looks up stock, bays, lessons, hire and jobs from the same record your team uses, then sends a short UK reply — or holds the line and asks a person.
Job status, bay or van ETA, MOT due — not invented oil grades or labour prices.
What Co-driver is, across the family →Built to be found
WorkshopOS ships programmatic landing pages that target how your customers actually search — with valid schema, clean HTML and fast load times, so you rank in local search and get cited in AI answers.

WorkshopOS questions
What is WorkshopOS?+
WorkshopOS is garage, MOT-bay and mobile-callout software: job cards from the registration, a bay or van diary, invoicing, live tracking on emergency callouts, and a bookable website on your domain. It is part of Automotive Systems. The product is still in development.
What happens when I type a registration?+
WorkshopOS shows oil spec and quantity, timing-belt or wet-belt type, tyre sizes and pressures, service due and labour times, then you create the job — oil service, timing job, find tyres, MOT. That data sits on the job card. It is not a technical-data tab beside the diary.
What is Callout?+
Callout is the WorkshopOS band for mobile tyre fitting and mobile mechanics — vans, not MOT bays. It is the same product: vehicle data from the registration, job cards, your domain and local SEO pages for those searches. Emergency callouts send a live track link that goes dark when the job ends. A brick garage that also runs vans keeps one organisation and enables Callout alongside the bay band.
What does Pro mean — extra bays or extra sites?+
Pro is more than one workshop address, not extra ramps at one garage. One organisation, a diary and MOT bays per site, and local SEO pages per town. Growth is a full garage at one site. Starter is one site with one or two bays.
Will it remind customers about MOTs?+
Yes. MOT and service reminders are a core job on the bay bands. The website is there so the reminder can convert into a booking, not just an email. Custom domain and local SEO pages sit on every band, including Starter and Callout.
Who is it for?+
Independent garages, MOT centres, dealer service departments, mobile mechanics and mobile tyre vans who need the diary, the job card and the local-search website in one place.
What is Co-driver on WorkshopOS?+
Co-driver is the WhatsApp and SMS desk in every Automotive Systems product — not a sixth SKU. On WorkshopOS it can say: Job status, bay or van ETA, MOT due — not invented oil grades or labour prices. It sits on every band except Starter and Solo.
When does WorkshopOS launch?+
WorkshopOS is in development. The rest of the Automotive Systems family launches End of Q4 2026.
