Engineered for high-throughput shop floors
Real-time dispatch, automatic slip detection, and 2-way SMS that technicians actually run from their bays.
Predictive Slip Detection
Lanekeeper continuously compares standard book labor times with actual bay clock telemetry. When an unexpected rusty bolt or parts delay occurs, the system recalculates estimated completion time before the delay cascades to following jobs.
- ✓ Configurable warning buffers (e.g. 10m, 15m, or 30m prior to delivery deadline)
- ✓ Automatic job re-sequencing suggestions for afternoon work orders
- ✓ Zero dashboard babysitting required — alerts push to assigned techs
Built for Greasy Fingers and Wall Tablets
Shop floors are tough on software. Lanekeeper features high-contrast touch targets, quick one-tap status toggles (Started, Paused, Waiting on Parts, Q/C Complete), and instant offline sync so network hiccups never freeze work in a bay.
- ✓ Optimized for iPad, Android tablets, and wall-mounted shop monitors
- ✓ Multi-touch drag and drop without accidental gestures
- ✓ Dark console & high-visibility daylight shop modes
Automated, Branded Customer SMS
Eliminate the endless "Is my car ready yet?" phone calls. Lanekeeper automatically texts customers when their vehicle enters a bay, when an inspection video is ready, or if a delay requires a revised delivery promise.
Everything included across all tiers
Intelligent Slip Prediction
Calculates standard job labor hours against active bay time. The moment a job drifts 10 minutes off pace, a high-priority alert triggers before the promise window breaks.

Targeted Tech Paging
Alerts route strictly to the assigned bay technician via push or dedicated shop SMS, eliminating noisy group chats and missed radio pages.
