Digital vehicle inspection: each item marked good, needs attention or urgent, with camera buttons for photos

Digital Vehicle Inspections (DVI)

Baybolt's DVI software transforms how your shop communicates with customers. Mechanics can document vehicle conditions with photos directly from their phone, attach notes and severity levels, and generate professional reports in seconds. Customers receive the report via text or email and can approve or deny recommended work instantly. Each approved item gets an Add to Task button, so it goes onto your kanban board with one tap.
