ShopCoach AI delivers proven ROI through automated work orders, labor time optimization, and instant parts recommendations

LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESS Newswire / October 15, 2025 / ShopView, a leading heavy duty repair shop management software platform, announced that its ShopCoach AI assistant has helped multi-location Canadian repair shop Foothills Group generate $720,000 in additional annual revenue through increased operational capacity and efficiency. By reducing administrative tasks and speeding up work order processing, ShopCoach helps heavy duty shops complete more jobs daily while maintaining quality. The AI technology, now deployed across hundreds of heavy duty repair shops, transforms the traditionally manual work order process from 30 minutes to just 60 seconds.

The heavy-duty repair industry has historically struggled with time-consuming administrative tasks that pull staff away from revenue-generating activities. ShopCoach AI addresses this challenge by automating the entire work order creation process, including labor time guides, technician stories, parts suggestions, and repair history lookups. This helps deliver capabilities that most shop management systems currently lack.

"The results we're seeing with ShopCoach AI are transforming what shop owners thought was possible," said Cody, Co-Founder of ShopView. "It's a complete reimagining of how heavy duty repair shop management software should work. We're giving shops the ability to operate at twice the speed while providing insights that have traditionally been hidden in their data."

ShopCoach AI seamlessly integrates with existing shop workflows, building complex 30-line work orders with parts in under one minute. The system recommends appropriate labor times and parts based on VIN data, service history, and OEM guidelines, eliminating guesswork and ensuring consistent pricing across all locations.

Key performance improvements reported by shops using the platform include:

• 75% reduction in work order creation time

• 1.5 hours saved daily per user

• Reduced administrative workload by 1-2 full-time positions

• 30% improvement in billing accuracy

• Complete visibility into technician efficiency and shop performance metrics

Unlike generic business software, ShopView's heavy duty repair shop management software is purpose-built for the unique needs of truck and trailer repair facilities. The platform handles everything from automated work order creation and parts recommendations to labor time guides, estimates, and technician stories. Shop owners gain unprecedented visibility into their operations, enabling data-driven decisions that directly impact profitability.

"The ease of use for everyone is hands down a reason to switch alone," said Sam Stuart from SS Repair Ltd. "That coupled with the unbeatable customer service and dollar value you save by not spending a lifetime completing each work order, it's really a no brainer."

The AI-powered solution particularly benefits multi-location operations where consistency and efficiency across sites is critical. By standardizing processes and providing real-time performance benchmarking, the platform ensures all locations operate at peak efficiency.

ShopCoach AI is available immediately as part of the ShopView platform. The system works with shops ranging from 3 to 50+ technicians and includes multi-location management capabilities.

Industry analysts predict the heavy duty repair shop management software market will continue rapid growth as shops seek solutions to combat technician shortages and rising operational costs. ShopView's proven ROI positions the company as a leader in this transformation.
