Turn the finding into a priced recommendation.

Inspection findings become advisor-confirmed quote recommendations with labour, parts, supplier, ETA, and totals.

The revenue moment starts when a record becomes a clean recommendation. Openhood helps advisors turn inspection findings into quote rows, catalogue matches, labour, parts, supplier detail, and SMS-ready customer context without retyping the technician's work.
