Availability

Developed in our shop.
Opening to more.

DealWrench is developed inside a working truck and upfit shop in Colorado. Our customer count is one shop—our own. Public enrollment is not open yet.

Available in the current product
Estimates, service approvals, customer communications, inspection findings, purchasing, team chat and a report library. Availability of connected features depends on provider setup.
Still being developed
Public onboarding and complete self-service data export. Migration scope needs a review of the source system and records.
Check your required workflows
Integrated parts catalogs, labor guides, payroll and multi-location reporting are not capabilities to assume. Staff workflows are primarily designed for desktop; a native mobile app is not available.
How to read the examples
The homepage work order uses illustrative sample data. It is not a customer testimonial, a live job or a product screenshot.

Every claim on this site, and where it was checked

Receipts.

Competitor figures come off published pricing pages, not somebody’s slide. Every row carries the day we looked. If a row is older than the day you are reading it, treat it as stale and check it yourself — the link is right there.

Our customer count1 shop — our ownInternal. The shop that builds it, in Colorado.12 Sep 2026

Three claims we have deliberately not made: that no competitor lets you try the software (ARI is genuinely self-serve at $39.99, and it is the honest exception); that we are cheaper than the category (we are not — Tekmetric tops out at $439 and Shopmonkey at $499); and any figure for how much a shop saves by switching, because we have one customer and no basis for one.
