Getting Started
How do I create my first project?

What's the difference between flip and repair projects?

Flip/Resale Projects: Track from purchase to sale with statuses: Acquired → In Progress → Ready to List → Listed → Sold. Perfect for car flippers tracking buy price, repair costs, and final sale.

Repair Jobs & Estimates: Create estimates for customers, track parts and labor, generate professional PDF quotes. Manage statuses: Estimate → Accepted → In Progress → Completed → Paid.

AI Valuations
What are AI-Powered Valuations?

AI Valuations use advanced computer vision to analyze photos of vehicles or equipment and provide instant estimates. Two types available:

  • Fix & Flip Analysis: Estimates repair costs and potential resale value to help you make buying decisions
