MechanicX is garage management software for independent UK garages, MOT stations and mobile mechanics. It holds every customer, vehicle and service history in one searchable place, runs the workshop diary, gives technicians digital job cards on a phone or tablet, and turns finished work into a branded invoice that can be paid before the keys go back. It costs £29, £59 or £119 a month depending on the size of your workshop, and you can try it for 30 days without a card.
It was built inside a working garage, not by a software company guessing at a workshop day — so anything your shop does not use can be hidden, and most garages are taking bookings within an hour of signing up. Read more about who builds MechanicX.
Take the call, check the vehicle's MOT and service history from its registration, and drop the job into the workshop diary with the hours it will take. Daily capacity bars show when a day is full before you promise it.
MOT and service bookingThe booking becomes a digital job card in the bay. Technicians add photos, parts, labour and notes from a phone or tablet, and sign the work off — nothing walks out of the workshop on a scrap of paper.
Digital job cardsThe signed-off job card becomes a branded invoice or estimate with your own numbering, VAT and terms. Credit notes, part-payments and email sending are all built in.
Invoicing for mechanicsTake cash, card or BACS, or send a pay-by-link text before collection. Paid invoices push straight to Xero, QuickBooks or Zoho Books, so nothing is re-typed for the bookkeeper.
Payments and accountsVehicles, contacts, history and notes — clean, searchable, never lost in a drawer.
Branded PDFs, custom numbering, credit notes and email send — without the spreadsheet juggling.
Quick worksheets your technicians can update from a tablet or phone. Photos, parts, labour, all signed off.
Cash, Card, or BACS. Even send Dojo pay-by-link via text or email, all at the click of a button.

What garages say
“MechanicX was an easy step away from messy paperwork. Bookings to Invoicing is now easy and quick. Xero exporting has saved countless hours of data entry too!”
“MechanicX made running our workshop easy. We can book jobs and assign them to staff all from the office. Our technicians have their own log in so they can see jobs from the moment they turn up and log in!”
“With our growing workshop MechanicX fits in perfectly with our day-to-day business. Freeing up time to actually work rather than spending it doing admin.”
MechanicX costs £29, £59 or £119 per month depending on the size and needs of your workshop. It is a flat monthly subscription with no per-user charge and no setup fee, and it is a fraction of the bloated garage systems on the market. Optional add-ons such as Autodata, HaynesPro, Xero sync and stock control are billed only if you switch them on.
Yes. Most garages start fresh and add each customer and vehicle as it comes back in, which spreads the work over a few weeks and costs nothing. If you would rather move everything at once, send us a spreadsheet of your existing customer and vehicle list and we will help you import it before you go live.
No training course and no consultant. If our 63-year-old can use it after lunch, so can your team. The screens hide accounting jargon by default and show only what each role needs, so a technician sees job cards while the office sees the diary, invoices and payments. Most garages are taking bookings within an hour.
Yes. Technicians get a stripped-down Job Cards view designed for phones and tablets in the bay: today's work, the vehicle's history, photos, parts, labour and sign-off. It needs a working internet or mobile signal in the workshop, and it runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install on each device.
Yes. There is no long contract and no exit fee — you pay monthly and can stop at the end of any month. Your data stays yours: you can export your customers, vehicles, job history and invoices whenever you like, including on the way out.
