Autera Assist

Diagnostic scans,
sorted for you.

Upload a fault-code scan and Autera Assist reads it for you: a health score out of 100, the faults decoded in plain English with likely causes, MOT fail and advisory flags, a summary your customer actually understands, and a draft quote in one tap. It writes your job-card descriptions too. On the web app and the iOS and Android apps.

READ THE SCAN

A diagnostic scan in, a quote out

A fault-code readout is a wall of P-codes your customer will never understand, and pricing it up by hand eats the afternoon. Upload it and Autera Assist turns it into a scored, plain-English read and a draft quote at your own labour rate. You review it, then send.

THE PROBLEM

Rough notes don’t belong on an invoice

In the bay, technicians jot the quickest thing that works: “frnt pads”, “oil leak sus”, “noise on full lock”. It makes sense to them. It does not make sense to the customer reading the invoice, and it doesn’t look like the work of a professional workshop.

Without Autera Assist

  • Shorthand the customer can’t read
  • Invoices that look rushed and unprofessional
  • “What does this actually mean?” phone calls
  • Every technician writing it differently
Autera Assist
  • A clear, professional description in seconds
  • Invoices customers understand at a glance
  • Fewer queries, faster payment
  • Consistent house wording, every job
SEE IT IN ACTION

A few words in, a finished description out

Type what you’d normally scribble, and Autera Assist drafts the clear, professional description that lands on the job card and the invoice.

What the technician types

Generate with Autera Assist

Drafted by Autera Assist

Replaced front brake pads and discs after the customer reported a grinding noise when braking. Cleaned and lubricated the calliper guide pins, then road-tested to confirm the noise was resolved and braking performance was correct.

Tweak any wording, then save, and it appears on the job card and the customer’s invoice.

HOW IT WORKS

Three taps on the job card

1

Type a few words

On the job card, jot the work in whatever shorthand you’d normally use, like “front pads + discs, grinding”. No full sentences, no fuss.

2

Autera Assist drafts it

Tap the ✨ button and it writes a clear, professional description in UK motor-trade English, using the vehicle on the job for context.

3

Tweak and save

Adjust any wording you like, then save. It’s on the job card and flows straight onto the customer’s invoice. Works on web and the iOS and Android apps.

It’s the same on every device: the job-card screen on the web app and the native iOS and Android apps.

NEW · CUSTOMER APPROVALS

Now it writes to your customers, too

Found extra work mid-job? When you send the customer an approval request, Autera Assist turns your rough note into a clear, honest explanation they read on their phone, so they understand what’s needed and approve with confidence. You review and edit every draft first; nothing reaches the customer automatically.

Drafted by Autera Assist

We've found your rear brake discs are badly scored and the pads are down to 2mm, near the safe limit. We'd recommend replacing both now to avoid damaging the callipers, which is a much costlier repair.

The workshop reviews every draft before it’s sent, and can edit a word or rewrite it. Nothing reaches the customer automatically.

WHY IT MATTERS

Small feature, real payoff

Saves real time

Stop rewriting the same paragraph job after job. A few words become a finished description in seconds, so technicians spend their time on cars, not on phrasing.

Looks professional

Customers see a clear description of the work in proper English, not “frnt pads” shorthand. The job card and invoice read like they came from a workshop that takes pride in its paperwork.

Fewer “what’s this?” queries

When the invoice plainly explains what was done and why, customers query it less and pay it sooner. Clearer descriptions mean fewer awkward phone calls.

Consistent wording

Every technician’s notes come out in the same clear, professional house style, so your paperwork reads consistently across the whole team, every job.

QUESTIONS

Common questions

Three things. First, and the one that makes you money, it reads a diagnostic scan: upload the fault-code report as a PDF, or a photo of the scan-tool screen, and Autera Assist gives you a vehicle health score out of 100, decodes every fault code with its likely causes and severity, flags anything that fails or advises an MOT, and writes a plain-English summary the customer actually understands. From that, one tap drafts a quote at your own labour rate. Second, it writes job-card descriptions from a few rough words like “front pads + discs, grinding noise”, in proper UK motor-trade English. Third, it drafts plain-English customer-approval explanations for extra work found mid-job. Everything is review-first. You edit or rewrite every draft before anything is saved or sent.

Both. Autera Assist lives on the job-card screen on the web app and on the native iOS and Android apps, so a technician can draft a description from the bay on a phone or tablet, or back at the desk on a computer. It’s the same feature wherever you are.

Always. The draft drops straight into the description box and you can tweak a word, add a detail, or rewrite it entirely before you save. Nothing is sent to the customer automatically, so you stay in control of every job card.

Your notes and the vehicle details are sent to our AI provider only to generate that one description, then the result comes back to you. They are not used to train public or general-purpose AI models. Autera Assist is built to tidy up your notes, not to harvest your workshop’s data.

Yes. Every plan includes a monthly allowance of Autera Assist generations, from the free Solo plan upward, with larger allowances on the paid tiers. See the pricing page for the current allowances.
