Consumers spend 5+ hours a day on their smartphones. Buying decisions now happen in the palm of their hand — including approving auto repairs.

66%
Findings Lost Without DVI

Up to 66% of technical findings aren’t communicated clearly when shops rely on scribbled paper notes. Digital inspections close that gap completely.

Inspect, photograph, send — from anywhere.

Forget paper checklists and spreadsheets. The AutoSoftWay mobile app turns any phone or tablet into an inspection tool, and our DVI software helps streamline every inspection. Rate each item, add a note and a photo, mark up what matters, and put a clear recommendation in your customer’s hands.

Take photos from the mobile app

Take a photo or pick one from the gallery and attach it to any item — on a new inspection or one already in progress.

Draw directly on the photo

Tap a photo and mark worn parts or damage with the pen, in the colour you choose. The marked-up photo goes into the report, so customers see what you see.

View & edit existing reports

Save and continue later, on the phone or at the desk. Once an inspection is completed it is locked; an owner or manager can reopen it.

Built to match your shop’s standards.

Every shop runs differently. Create inspection templates that mirror how you work — then use them on every job, across every vehicle.

1 Before inspection

Customizable templates

Build templates in the DVI Builder: add items, group them into sections, drag to reorder, and duplicate a template to make a variation. Techs start every inspection from the same list.

2 Flexible by design

Unlimited checklist items

Add as many inspection items as you need — from a quick 5-point check to a full multi-point inspection. There is no cap on items or templates.

AutoSoftWay inspection PDF: Under Hood items with Good, Needs Attention and Immediate Attention and technician comments

Part of an AutoSoftWay inspection PDF (demo shop).

Professional reports you can share and print.

When an inspection is completed, AutoSoftWay creates the PDF for you: every item with its condition and the tech’s comments, the photos, and your shop’s name, address and logo.

Auto-generated on completion

No manual formatting. Preview it before you finish, and choose what appears on it in the DVI PDF settings.

Email, text or print

Send the report by email with the PDF attached and a text with a link when the customer has a mobile number — or print it from the desk.

Transparency builds trust

Customers open the report on their phone and approve or decline the work with one tap — you’re notified either way.
