Workshop management / UK garages

See every bay.
Run every job.

Other garage systems give you a diary and an invoice book. Bayline gives you the floor: what is on every ramp, who is on it, what is outstanding, and what it is worth. From the ramp to the invoice.

Why we built it

Most garage software was designed for the back office.

A lot of it is a business-management platform with a garage skin on top, or a Windows product that never left 2009. It works, at a desk, once you have been trained. It is no use to a technician at arm's length across a bay with dirty hands.

TYPICAL GARAGE SYSTEM
A diary and an invoice book. You still walk the floor to find out what is actually happening.
Built on a generic business platform, so it is dense, slow and needs training before anyone is productive.
Desktop-first. Technicians work off printouts, then someone types it all back in at the end of the day.
Checklists are an add-on, so cars still go out with work missed.
Pricing behind a demo call, a setup fee, and a charge per extra seat.
BAYLINE
A live bay board is the home screen. Glance at it from across the workshop and you know where you stand.
Purpose-built for garages. Set your bays up and book the first car in the same afternoon.
Technicians tick jobs off on their own phone. It lands on the job card instantly, timestamped and attributed.
Pre-check and post-check on every job, and the sign-off prints as the customer's work-completed report.
£99 a month as a founding garage, published on this page, every technician included.
01 / The bay board

The whole floor, on one screen

Bays grouped into lanes: ramps, detailing, yard. Drag a job onto a free bay to place it, drag between bays to move a car. Every tile carries the plate, the job, the status and how long it has been in. A job running past its estimate turns red on its own.

Lanes for ramps, detailing bays and yard, set up however your garage is laid out
Drag to place, move or swap a car between bays
Overdue jobs flag themselves in red against their estimate

02 / Job cards

A car cannot go out with work outstanding

Every job carries a pre-check and a post-check. Technicians tick them off on their phone, each one stamped with the time and who did it. Outstanding items carry an amber edge so a half-done list is obvious at a glance. Sign off the post-check and the work-completed report prints with the invoice.

Work items each carry a price and an estimated time, from a catalogue of common garage and restoration jobs
Parts tracked from to-order through to fitted, with supplier and part number

03 / In your pocket

Your technicians already have the terminal

Bayline on a phone shows a technician their jobs, the floor, the queue, and anything waiting on them. They advance work items, tick checks and ask a question on the job card without walking back to the office. Included, with no per-seat charge.

04 / Enquiries

Every enquiry, from every channel, in one queue

Website form, WhatsApp, phone, walk-in. They all land in one triage board and move New, Contacted, Quoted, Booked. Book one in and Bayline creates the customer, the vehicle and the job in a single step, and remembers which channel it came from so you can see what is actually bringing in work.

Stop typing what a lookup can tell you

Type a plate and Bayline fills the rest in. Every integration is included on both plans, not sold as a bolt-on.

A technician working under the bonnet Plate in, record out
LIVE
MOT & vehicle lookup Type a plate and Bayline pulls the make, model and MOT history straight from the DVSA record. No re-keying, no typos on the invoice.
LIVE
eBay listings List a finished stock car or a spare part to eBay from the record you already keep, and keep the listing tied to the car.
SOON
Parts suppliers Search factor catalogues by part number from inside the job, with price and stock, then add it to the card. Manual entry always stays as a fallback.
LIVE
Technician app The phone app is part of the plan, for everyone on the tools. No extra licence per person, however many staff you put on it.

Built for the shop floor

Designed for a bay, not a desk

These are constraints we hold ourselves to, not features we bolted on. Nobody else in this market publishes them.

A car raised on a workshop lift Designed around the bay
2m Readable across a bay Status is set at a size you can read from the other side of the workshop, not squinted at up close.
44px Gloves-on targets The buttons and toggles a technician taps are built to a 44-pixel minimum, so they work with cold hands and thick fingers, not a mouse pointer.
AA Bright light or dim office Light and dark themes are both first class and both meet WCAG AA contrast, in daylight or under strip lights.
0 Colour-only status Every status carries a colour, an icon and a word. Nothing depends on telling amber from green.
