What it does

GarageOS is shop-management software built specifically for independent Jamaican auto-repair shops rather than a generic template. A shop opens a work order for a vehicle, adds labour and parts lines, gets the customer's approval on price, and moves the job from draft through approved, in-progress, to ready. Invoices generate from the work order with Jamaica's 15% General Consumption Tax calculated to the cent, take several payment methods including Inkress, and print on shop letterhead. The system tracks each customer's vehicles with local plate categories and Certificate-of-Fitness and insurance expiry dates.

Vehicle owners get a passkey portal, no password, to review an estimate and approve or decline a repair from their phone with a typed-name authorisation, and to see service history and invoices. One shared passkey login works across the shop app, the customer portal and an identity app, so the same person can be staff at one shop and a customer at another with a single account, and the app installs and works offline on a shop floor with a weak signal.

GarageOS is deliberately scoped for its first version: inventory stock levels, self-service online booking and accounting export are on the roadmap rather than shipped.
