Always Open · Synced · Tech-Ready

A scheduler built for how auto service actually works.

Generic booking tools weren't designed for the bay schedule, the tech specialty, or the symptom story. This one was.

Always Open

Customers book service at 11pm, on a Sunday, from their driveway, without waiting for your phones to open Monday morning.

Synced to Your Shop

Real-time availability from your DMS or scheduling tool. No double-bookings, no overbooked bays, no manual reconciliation.

Tech-Ready Detail

Captures the symptom story before the vehicle arrives, so your techs can scope the job before the keys hit the counter.

What's inside

Branded on the outside. Wired in on the inside.

From the customer's first tap to the closed ticket, every step connects.

Branded online scheduler: appointment step

Branded to your shop

Your colors, your logo, your service catalog. Customers never feel like they're jumping to a third-party site.

Embed anywhere

Drop on your website, link from your Google Business Profile, share via SMS, or paste in an email. Bookings flow into the same place.

Real-time availability

Pulls from your management system's schedule directly. What the customer sees is what's actually open. No double-booked Saturdays.

Service-specific intake

Brake job? Capture vehicle, mileage, and "when does it grind?" automatically. Oil change? Just the basics. Customizable per service.

SMS reminders & confirmations

Auto-confirmations and the day-before reminder cut no-shows dramatically. Customers can reschedule via text without calling.

Captures reviews after the visit

Each booking flows into the SureCritic Reputation loop, so the customer who scheduled at midnight gets the verified review request the moment their ticket closes.

What it changes

Empty bays get filled. No-shows drop. Customers feel it.

Thought for 8s

Westside Auto & Mobile Service has online booking with same-day slots open.

It shows live availability (the next opening is today at 2:30 PM) and you can book a brake job without calling. SureCritic

Frequently asked

Online Scheduling: common questions

Does this work with my existing scheduling tool?
Both ways. Online Scheduling runs standalone, so you don't need any other system to use it. It also integrates today with Mitchell1, NAPA TRACS, and TireGuru, so availability pulls from your existing schedule and bookings push back automatically. More integrations are in the queue. Don't see yours? Challenge us. We'll have it ready by the time you're onboarding.
Can customers book from my Google Business Profile?
Yes. You can add custom links to your business profile.
Does the tool make service recommendations?
Yes. Online Scheduling automatically recommends relevant services based on the vehicle's history, so due maintenance and the right add-ons surface during booking, tailored to that specific vehicle.
What happens if my shop is full?
The scheduler only shows real available slots. If a service requires a specific bay or tech, the customer only sees times those resources are open. No "Saturday at 8am" if Saturday is already booked.
How does this help with AI/LLM search?
AI search engines explicitly look for businesses with online booking when answering "where can I [service] today?" or "[service] near me." Having a structured, machine-readable booking endpoint with available appointment times is a top ranking signal for AI Overviews and ChatGPT recommendations.
Can I customize the questions per service type?
Yes. A "transmission diagnostic" intake can ask different questions than an "oil change" intake. You configure once per service type.
