Automotive software development

Stock and listings, workshop scheduling, rental fleets and dispatch — for dealerships, repair shops, rental firms and taxi operators. One vehicle record, one availability calendar, and integrations with the systems the forecourt already runs on.

Who this is for

Businesses whose asset is a vehicle and whose problem is knowing where it is and when it is free.

Cars on the floor of a dealership showroom

Car dealerships

New and used stock published once and syndicated everywhere, part-exchange valuations, finance enquiries, and a test-drive booked from the listing.

A mechanic working on an engine in a garage

Auto repair and servicing

Bay and technician scheduling, digital job cards with photographs, parts ordering, and approval for extra work sent to the customer instead of chased by phone.

Car keys being handed across a rental counter

Car rental

Fleet availability across locations, online booking with deposits, damage and fuel captured at handover, and pricing that responds to what is actually free.

A taxi driver using navigation on a city street

Taxi and ride services

Passenger app, driver app and dispatch, with fares, allocation and live tracking. Built for the airport-run peak rather than the quiet Tuesday.

What we can do across the forecourt

Four things every business here needs, whether it sells the car, fixes it or rents it out.

01

Vehicle records and availability

One record per vehicle carrying specification, media, history, price and status, and one calendar that says when it is free. Everything else on this page is a view of those two things.

02

Listings, feeds and online booking

Stock and slots published to your site and to the marketplaces from the same source, with a test drive, service or rental booked without a phone call and confirmed against real availability.

03

Workshop and fleet operations

Bays, technicians, parts and jobs on one board; damage, fuel and mileage captured at handover with photographs. The dispute you can settle is the one you documented.

04

Payments, deposits and finance

Deposits held and released, balances taken on collection, and finance or insurance enquiries passed to the provider with the data already filled in.

One vehicle, four businesses

A dealership, a workshop, a rental desk and a taxi office ask the same two questions: which vehicle, and when is it free. Building those once and specialising the surface is why this work is faster than it looks.

Solutions we build

The systems this sector asks for most. Each one ships as its own increment, so the first release is in use while the next is being built.

  • Stock listing sites with search and finance calculators
  • Marketplace and classified feed syndication
  • Test drive, service and rental booking
  • Workshop scheduling and digital job cards
  • Rental fleet management with damage and fuel capture
  • Taxi dispatch with passenger and driver apps
  • Telematics and tracking integrations
  • Deposits, payments and finance enquiry routing

Questions this sector asks

Usually. Most expose an API or a scheduled export; where neither exists we work from the file drop or database it does have. We establish which at discovery rather than quoting the integration first.

Yes, and it should read from the same stock record as everything else. A separate marketing site with its own copy of the stock is how a sold car stays advertised for a week.

Yes. Rules by season, day of week, lead time and remaining availability, with a manual override that always wins. We start with rules you can explain to a customer, not a model you cannot.

By making the record automatic: timestamped, geotagged photographs at handover and return, a signed condition report, and an immutable history per vehicle. The point is that neither side has to remember.

Yes, and it should be designed that way from the start. Stock, staff and calendars per site with a shared customer record; merging separate per-site systems afterwards is the migration nobody enjoys.

Yes — vehicles, specifications, media, service history and customers. We rehearse it against a copy, reconcile counts before and after, and keep the old system readable until the new one is trusted.

What would this cost?

Four questions and you have a budget and timeline range. It is a range because the width is the honest measure of what is still unknown.
