    Auto-Track Margin by Vehicle

    Repairius Vehicle Intelligence tracks book vs actual hours per make, model, and year. Stop guessing which cars to take.

    Frequently asked questions

    Why does actual time exceed book time?

    Aging fleet, rusted hardware, broken bolts, hidden damage, or jobs your team simply hasn't done enough of. Track per-tech and per-vehicle to isolate the cause.

    What's a healthy effective rate?

    You want actual $/hour within 85% of your posted rate. Below that, raise your labor multiplier on those vehicles.
