Vehicle-type templates
Motorcycle, 3-wheel, and car templates keep the order and language relevant.
Built around how inspections actually get sold.
Autobahn connects the three moments that decide whether inspection work becomes approved work: capture, communication, and follow-up.

Capture
Built around how inspections actually happen.
Start with the vehicle in front of you, not a generic form designed for a different shop.

Clear finding, captured in context.
Three inspection depths
Quick, courtesy, or detailed—match the work to the visit instead of forcing a two-hour checklist.
Four honest states
OK, can wait, needs attention, and not inspected. Blank never silently becomes a pass.
Media attached to findings
Use photos, video, and audio where they explain the finding—not in a disconnected gallery.
Communicate
Give customers something they can use.
The report should make the decision easier, even when the underlying work is technical.

Report view tracking
See when the customer opens the report and follow up while the visit is still fresh.
Declined-work follow-up
Keep deferred recommendations visible so they do not disappear after the first visit.
Finding to estimate
Create a clear path from a flagged finding to the work that needs a price.
DMS-ready foundation
Start standalone, then connect vehicle and customer context from DX1 or Tekmetric.
Why the workflow matters
Save shop time. Recover more of the work already found.
The product does not create revenue by magic. It makes the expensive parts of the workflow visible: re-keying, unclear evidence, missed follow-up, and recommendations that never become a decision.
Cost saving mechanism
Less admin and rework
Capture the finding once, attach the evidence in context, and give the service writer the same record the customer sees. That reduces avoidable handoffs and time spent hunting for the original detail.

Revenue mechanism
Recover deferred work
View tracking, urgency controls, finding-to-estimate mapping, and a follow-up queue keep declined recommendations visible after the first visit—when the customer is ready to act.

Honest roadmap
What comes after the core workflow.
The DVI is the wedge. AI-assisted capture, deeper integrations, live sessions, and back-office modules are deliberately sequenced behind it.
The best feature is a workflow the shop finishes—and gets paid from.
