Three places customers slip away.
Auto repair shops, tire shops, oil change, smog check, body and detail shops tell us the same three things.
Constant 'is my car ready?' calls
Your service writer spends half the day on the phone giving the same updates.
No service reminders
Customers forget their next oil change or inspection and end up at whichever shop is closest.
Missed calls while you're in the bay
When everyone is under a car, new customers get voicemail and call someone else.

A day with Wrenwork.
A sample day once it's set up. Nothing on this list needs you to open an app.
- 7:45amTwo drop-offs are checked in. Each customer gets a text saying their car is in.
- 10:20amAn estimate is ready. The customer gets a text and replies to approve the work.
- 1:00pmA customer due for an oil change gets a reminder and books for next week.
- 4:30pmA car is done. The customer gets a ready-for-pickup text, so they don't need to call.
- 6:10pmAfter pickup, the customer gets a thank-you text with your review link.
Questions we hear.
Can it pull status from my shop software?
Some shop management tools can connect and some can't. If yours can't, your team can send updates with one tap instead. We check during the free audit.
Will customers get too many texts?
No. We keep it to the updates that save a phone call: checked in, estimate ready and done. You choose which ones go out.
Do you work with shops outside San Jose?
Yes. We're in San Jose and work with shops across the South Bay, and remotely anywhere else.
