What shop owners say
“Most shop software was out of reach for our start-up. ARI was affordable, did everything we needed, and the integrations made the day-to-day simpler—especially estimates and invoices.”
— Hannah H., COO(G2)“Super easy to set up and use—we’re in it all day. Support felt first-class, and the hands-on demo helped us get rolling fast.”
— James D.(G2)“Affordable and powerful. The interface is solid and the AI labor guide is mostly accurate—lots of features for the price.”
— Bryan W., Owner(G2)“As a one-man show (service writer + manager + mechanic), I can build an invoice on my phone, send it, get a signature, and get paid.”
— Eurocarpro Pearland(App Store)“After trying about six invoicing apps, this was the one: comprehensive and intuitive. The customer/work-order/invoice flow is seamless.”
— JohnDoeXM2010(App Store)“I’m a mobile mechanic—this saves me time and makes my work orders look professional, especially with a mobile printer.”
