Your workshop’s day, in whichever view you need

Each view answers a different question: what slot you have left today, how the week is shaping up, what is being worked on right now. Switch between them without leaving the module or losing your filters.

Give a drop-off time while the customer is still on the phone

The day by technician with its gaps, the week to spread the load and the month to place services and inspections with room to spare. You know straight away what you can promise and which lift you have to do it with.

The order of the day, proposed and explained

You start the day knowing which car goes first and why. Cafler AI looks at the deliveries, the bays, the lift and each technician’s workload, and proposes an order you can apply as it comes or adjust your way.

  • First thing in the morning you have the order worth taking today’s cars in.
  • Every car comes with its reason in one line: the tightest delivery, the free bay.
  • What is approved with no slot, it offers to fit in: say how long it takes and it lands.
  • Apply, adjust or skip. Whatever you apply is logged and can be undone.

Booking

Book the appointment in the time the call takes

You pick up the phone, type the plate, and there is the customer, their car and what you did to it last time. The appointment is booked before you hang up.

  • Regulars never have to repeat their details: the plate brings them in.
  • A new car is created from the plate and little else; the rest, when you can.
  • Book them for another day or take the car in right now if it is at the door.
  • It suggests the freest technician and a compatible bay, and you say yes.

The technician and the bay, proposed by workload

As you set the time, the diary has already checked who has the lightest day, which bay takes that service and what slot is free. It proposes all three with the reason beside it and the alternatives below, so you decide in one click.

  • The proposal arrives ready: technician, bay and time, without opening another screen.
  • Every choice comes with its reason: lightest load today, compatible bay, free slot.
  • Below it, the alternatives with each technician’s workload, in case you prefer someone else.
  • Accept the suggestion or assign manually. The last word is yours.

From the workshop to the invoice

The car leaves with everything in writing, and you never type it twice

What gets decided at check-in travels all the way to the handover and the invoice. Nobody copies data from one screen to another, and the customer drives off with everything in writing.

  • Each technician sees their own and you see where every car stands, without asking.
  • Anything waiting on a part or an estimate shows up before it takes a bay.
  • The work order comes out of the appointment, and the invoice and handover from it.
  • The customer gets their appointment reminder, and you the alert if they miss it.

Questions about the scheduler

Five, and each one answers a different question: day, week and month to place the work ahead; by technician to see what is being done right now — if a job booked from 10:00 to 11:00 is still open at 11:30, its bar keeps stretching until it is closed; and workshop status to know where every vehicle stands and what is waiting on a part or an estimate. You move between them from the same bar, without losing your filters.
Yes. Put the booking widget on your site or share the link, and the customer picks service, day and time from the slots you have free; the appointment lands straight in your scheduler with their record and the vehicle already filled in. They get the confirmation and the reminder by email or SMS, and later on the periodic inspection and service reminders reach them when it is time to come back, so the scheduler also fills up with work you saw coming.
You drag the appointment to its new slot and the scheduler moves the technician and the bay with it. The change is logged, so the front desk always sees the right time.
It proposes and explains why, citing where it got the data: applying, adjusting or skipping is always your call, and whatever is applied is logged and can be undone. And if you would rather just ask, tell it to find a slot for a service and it leaves the appointment created, with the customer and the vehicle resolved, or moves and cancels it for you. Confirming is always yours.
In one click. The technician opens the job from their own view, the timer measures the real time of each stage, and once it is closed everything is ready to quote and invoice without typing the details again.
Yes. The reports sum up appointments completed and cancelled, no-shows, how busy each technician is and what was invoiced over the period, so you can compare weeks and see where you still have capacity.
Four things, and they are done once: the centre opening hours and holidays, the services you offer with their duration, the work bays — ramps, lifts, pits — and the technicians with their specialities. With that, the scheduler can already suggest technician, bay and a free time.
Yes. Each centre has its own scheduler, its own hours and its own bays, and group administration can see the whole picture and move an appointment from one centre to another without entering the customer details again.
