Auto upholstery quoting from photos

Auto upholsterers: quote the trim from a photo. Fabrics chosen, price sent.

Customers driving in just for a price and samples borrowed and lost. We build photo quoting and job tracking for auto upholstery shops.

Looking for auto upholstery quoting software?

Auto trim jobs depend on the vehicle, the seats and the material. We build tools that quote from photos and let customers choose materials online.

Wollopit builds booking systems, stock feeds, quoting tools and websites for auto upholsterers around how your workshop or yard actually runs. We connect the systems you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to the work.

01The problems

What we hear from auto upholsterers

Does your auto upholstery business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most auto upholsterers we talk to are juggling the phone, the counter and the workshop at once. It works, right up until three customers want an update at the same time.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your auto upholstery business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things auto upholsterers ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can it handle full interior restorations?

Yes. Large restoration jobs can be staged with progress payments and photo updates.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your auto upholstery business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Can you work with our existing workshop or dealer software?

Usually, yes. We build around what's working and connect it to your website, bookings and accounts. If something is holding you back we'll show you the options before anything changes.

Can customers get text updates?

Yes. Booking confirmations, progress updates, quotes to approve and 'ready to collect' messages can all go out by SMS automatically.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most auto upholsterers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
