Sound familiar?

A paper diary, a personal WhatsApp, and a phone that won't stop ringing.

Bookings live in a book. Reminders get typed with one thumb at 7pm. No-shows eat the morning, and every “is my car ready?” call pulls someone off a job. MekanykSync moves all of it onto one screen — and sends the messages for you.

Fill the diary without answering the phone

Customers book themselves through your booking page or the app. Walk-ins and phone bookings? Your team captures them in seconds from the dashboard. Everything lands on one schedule — nothing gets missed or double-booked.

Stop typing the same messages every day

The moment a booking lands, the customer gets a WhatsApp confirmation. A reminder follows the day before. When you mark the car ready, they’re told to come fetch it. Their replies land in your dashboard inbox — not on your personal phone.

WhatsApp, handled

The follow-up does itself.

Confirmations, reminders and “car's ready” messages go out through MekanykSync's verified WhatsApp number — every message mentions your workshop by name. You don't need a WhatsApp Business account, a new number or Meta verification. Free covers your first 15 jobs each month; Growth and Pro cover every job. It just works, from day one.

  • Booking confirmed — sent the moment a slot is taken
  • Reminder, the day before — fewer no-shows without anyone lifting a finger
  • Work started, quote to approve, invoice — each sent as the job moves along
  • "Your car is ready" — sent the second you mark the job done
  • Two-way inbox — your team answers from the desk, not from someone’s personal phone

WhatsApp gets read. Email gets ignored.
Mekanyk AI

Walk in, glance up, know everything.

The dashboard reads your day for you: who's booked, who's in a bay, who's waiting, and which cars are ready to go home. Mekanyk AI drafts your service descriptions during setup — and in the customer app, it helps your customers describe the problem and pick the right service before they book. You stay in control. Nothing goes out without your nod.

Ready for collection
3 cars ready — their owners have already been told on WhatsApp.
Walk-in pressure
2 walk-ins waiting — the oldest has been here 14 minutes.
Service backlog
5 of your regulars’ vehicles look overdue for a service.

My Polo makes a grinding noise when I brake.
Grinding when braking usually means worn brake pads — worth getting checked soon. AutoCare offers Brake pads (front) from R1,200. That looks like the right service for this.

Customer app

Your workshop, in your customers' pockets.

Customers see your workshop — your logo, your services, your gallery. They book a service, manage their vehicles and get help from Mekanyk AI, all in one clean app.

  • Your stage, not a marketplace
    Your logo, services and gallery. No competitors next door, nobody bidding for your customers — it’s your space inside the app.
  • Book in two taps
    Customers pick a service, pick a slot, done. Their vehicles are already on file.
  • Mekanyk AI on hand
    Helps customers describe the problem in plain language and pick the right service before they book. Fewer “it’s making a noise” bookings.
  • Service history that follows the car
    Every visit recorded against the vehicle — so customers trust the work, and they come back.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can’t find what you need? Email us.

Do I need a WhatsApp Business account?

No — that’s the point. All messages go through MekanykSync’s verified WhatsApp number and mention your workshop by name. No Meta verification, no new SIM, no monthly WhatsApp fees. Replies land in your dashboard inbox.

What happens after 15 jobs on the Free plan?

Nothing is blocked. Job 16 goes in like any other. The automatic WhatsApp updates pause until the month resets (or until you upgrade), but you can still reply to customers in your inbox and send any update by hand in one tap. If you’re passing 15 a month, your shop is growing. Growth gives you unlimited jobs and every update for R449.

How long does setup really take?

About 5 minutes. Sign up with Google or your email, pick your workshop type, then add your address, phone, services and a photo. We suggest a starter service list so you mostly tick boxes. Then share your booking link.

My customers won’t download an app.

They don’t have to. Your booking link opens in any browser — put it on your WhatsApp status, Facebook page or a counter QR code. And walk-ins or phone bookings take seconds to capture from the dashboard.

Can my staff use it too?

Yes. Free is you plus 2 team members. Growth takes up to 8 and adds manager and admin roles; Pro is unlimited. Each person gets their own login, and you can see who did what.

Does it work for company fleets?

Yes. Company accounts come with every plan. Growth and Pro add fleet tracking, bulk bookings for whole batches of vehicles, service schedules, and a list of vehicles with documents expiring in the next 60 days.

Can I send my customers marketing on WhatsApp?

Soon, on Pro. Broadcasts and win-back messages are paused while we finish opt-out handling, so customers can reply STOP and messages only go out at sensible hours. Your team records each customer’s marketing consent in MekanykSync.

What about my customers’ data?

It stays yours. You can export your reports, bookings and invoices to CSV whenever you like. If a customer asks you to delete their personal information, the owner can remove it from the customer’s page in one step. Invoices you have already issued stay, because the law requires you to keep them for five years. Customers can also email support@mekanyk.com, and we’ll deal with it within 30 days.

Can I cancel or change plans anytime?

Yes. Plans are month-to-month, there are no contracts, and downgrades take effect at the end of your billing period. Your data stays yours.

What does it cost my customers?

Nothing, ever. The app and booking are free for car owners — no booking fees, no markups.
