Job Log: Your Professional Work History

Document every repair, track your efficiency and earnings, and build a verified work history that showcases your expertise. Free for automotive technicians.

The Problem Every Technician Faces

You complete hundreds of repairs every year, but when it's time to prove your experience, update your resume, or negotiate better pay, you're left scrambling through faded paper tickets and incomplete memories. Your skills and productivity are invisible—even to yourself.

Without detailed records, you can't identify which jobs drain your efficiency, track your true earnings over time, or demonstrate the breadth of your expertise to potential employers.

The Solution: A CARFAX for Your Career

The Job Log creates a comprehensive, searchable record of every repair you complete. Track VIN numbers, vehicle details, flagged hours, actual time, pay rates, and job descriptions—all automatically organized and analyzed.

Get instant insights into your efficiency trends, earnings patterns, and areas for improvement. Build a verified work history you can share with employers, proving your experience across makes, models, and repair types.
