Legacy Detailing IO is the only field-first platform that runs your shop, your sales team, your rental income, your fleet vehicles, your IRS mileage log, and your personal finances — from your phone in the driveway or from your desk at 6am. 90+ modules. 5 revenue engines. Bilingual.
One click drops you into a real workspace preloaded with 3 months of business — 70 new clients a month, live schedules, payment plans and commissions. Look around, click anything. It resets itself every night.
Quote from photos, dodge the heat, run payroll, scan the receipts, certify your rep army — the five flows detailers use every single day.
Customers fill a 2-minute form with car photos, pick a real package from YOUR menu, and instantly see a price range pulled from your pricing guide — size, add-ons, and travel included. You review the photos and send the final quote for one-tap approval.
Per-job forecasts, NIOSH-based risk levels, cooler-slot suggestions inside customer booking on scorcher days, one-tap worker check-ins with a guided 911 flow, and hydration supply forecasting.
W-2 and 1099 in one run — tip credit, OT, PTO, year-end W-2/1099 downloads, and a guided I-9 onboarding checklist with a secure compliance vault.
GPS-verified clock-ins, TomTom one-click route optimization with live ETAs, and a Field Tab that runs the whole day from the driveway — offline queue included.
Any job becomes a branded invoice with a Pay Now link — sent by text or email. Overdue reminders fire on autopilot until it's paid.
Point your camera at a receipt, a case of water, or a gas pump slip — AI vision stocks inventory, prices units, tracks cost per job, and builds your weekly restock shopping list.
Recruit door-to-door reps, hand them territories, and watch the bookings roll in — every knock tracked, every drop-off proven, every commission computed automatically.
Build training courses in minutes (AI drafts them from your product docs), gate real exams behind them, and issue verifiable certifications — then sell your courses on the marketplace or recruit reps the moment they certify in your territory.
Every dollar your customers spend earns points automatically. Tiers, cashback, and a rewards catalog you control — with a self-serve portal where they watch their balance grow.
Information flows automatically from lead capture to follow-up. Complete the job once — customers, jobs, inventory, payments and books all update in the same breath.
Five new modules built after riding along on 100+ mobile jobs. Every one runs from your phone in the customer's driveway.
GPS-pinned jobs, before/after photos, offline queue, route ordering, and an End-of-Day SMS summary to the owner. Built for the driveway.
Every job's PPM × gallons drains a live tank gauge. Sidebar bell fires when resin is low. Water cost auto-flows into P&L per job.
Tap Start in the morning, tap End at night. AI reads the number off your dashboard photo. Auto-writes to the IRS mileage log.
Snap a gas receipt. GPT-5 Vision extracts gallons, price/gal, station, and date. Rolling actual cost/mile keeps your job P&L honest.
Stacked chart of fuel + maintenance + depreciation per vehicle. Spot the truck that's silently killing your margins before you lose the month.
Every other tool stops at "jobs and invoices." Legacy IO keeps going — into a 5-tier sales-rep engine, semi-passive tool rental, DI water intelligence, GPS-pinned field ops, IRS-audit-ready mileage tracking, gas receipt AI, and a full household finance workspace. All in one login. All in your pocket.
Drop every job on a live TomTom map, then hit Optimize — waypoint sequencing runs up to 12 stops per route, computes total miles + drive-time, and stamps a per-stop ETA. Auto-recalculates the moment a job is added, deleted, or rescheduled, so the board and the Field Tab never go stale.
Each rep opens their phone and sees only their own stops in optimized order, each with a live ETA and turn-by-turn hand-off. No more group texts of the day's plan — every rep is on the exact same page as dispatch, and every reshuffle pushes to their phone instantly.
Upload a CSV of storefronts or residential targets → we geocode every address, cluster by density, and sequence 12-stop day batches with TomTom optimization. A 60-lead push turns into 5 sequential day routes without a whiteboard.
Every dropped card renders as a color-coded pin on the manager's TomTom map — pending gray, done green, skipped amber. Coverage, gaps, and hot corridors are visible at a glance without pulling reports.
Doesn't just count drops — tracks which business types ACTUALLY convert (barbershop, cafe, auto shop, salon…). Business types with ≥2 QR redemptions AND ≥25% redemption rate get flagged HOT and future leads of that type light up so reps double down on what's paying.
Every drop-off card carries a unique QR. Pick your redemption behavior per-tenant — a hosted branded mini page with your logo & promo code, a redirect to your own site with the promo (and QR token) appended, or silent scan logging. Every scan feeds the hot-territory heatmap.
Mobile-friendly quoting in seconds. Auto-pulls from Service Pricing and generates dynamic ranges for compact / sedan / SUV / truck. Live job cost + margin sits next to the quote so nobody quotes at a loss on the driveway.
Every completed drop-off captures the rep's GPS and an optional proof photo (via Emergent Object Storage). Ends the 'did the rep actually go there?' debate and locks the drop into the territory analytics.
Reps recruit sub-reps. Recruiter earns a % override on their downline, cascading up to 5 tiers deep. Set the rate once, the engine does the rest.
Every rep gets their own login at /rep. KPI cards, bonus progress bars, awards feed — never sees your business data.
Reps log bookings, D2D, or social sales from their phone. Owner reviews and approves. Commission compute + multi-tier cascade fires automatically.
Anonymized, org-wide 'which store type converts best'. Reps see 'target barbershops first — $18.57/card' without ever seeing your customers.
Every rep gets a personal QR code. Customer scans → sale auto-routes to the right rep + cascades overrides up the chain.
Refer another detailer → earn 15% of their subscription monthly. Reps sell for a cut, cascading passive income up to 5 tiers deep. Recurring for as long as they stay.
18-module rental business inside your account. Tool Catalog, Package Builder, Rental Orders, deposit tracking — a whole second revenue stream you already have inventory for.
Automated customer scoring from behavior. Bronze/Silver/Gold tiers unlock deposit discounts. Late returners auto-flagged. Reduces friction without exposing you to risk.
40% of every rental payment auto-credits toward purchase. Eligibility checker, PMT amortization, and a live agreement tracker built in.
Rank every upgrade decision by NPV, ROI, and payback period. Stop guessing which purchase pays back — the engine tells you.
Live valuation math (annual net × configurable multiplier). Know what your business is worth today — for lending, partnering, or exit conversations.
Track every service vehicle. Editable maintenance schedule, work log with linked services, curved depreciation, and rolling 10,000-mile reserve fund — automatically.
Repair + depreciation math combined into a live $/mi figure. One-tap injects into Local Routes, Cross-City Planner, and Quick Quote so drive fees stop leaking profit.
Shows exactly how much you should be setting aside every month for the next big repair — window shifts with your odometer so the number is always fresh.
Live math on every quote. Down payment vs. financing fees, hard costs, net profit — flags jobs that look profitable but leave you carrying too much risk. Embedded in 3 places.
A new commission stream. When a rep gets a customer approved on 3/6/12-month financing, they earn — tiered by loan size, configurable, and cascades up the 5-tier chain.
6 KPI cards + 4 charts (cashflow, status donut, plan usage, top clients). Overdue alerts panel + originator dashboard — your whole AR portfolio at a glance.
Tiers no longer 'stick' at Platinum forever. Silver/Gold/Platinum recomputes on every job from a configurable 3-month spend window — customers move down when they stop coming in, so rewards keep working.
Turn any completed job into a professional invoice in one click. Email or SMS the customer, they pay with Stripe on a branded public page, or download a print-ready PDF. Overdue reminders auto-fire on your schedule.
Set your cadence (default 3/7/14 days after due date) and the system nudges customers on autopilot — same channel as the original send, capped by your max, with a 24-hour de-dupe so nothing goes out twice.
A mobile dispatch view built for the driveway. GPS pins, before/after photos, offline queue, route ordering by proximity, drive-vs-work timers on every job, and an End-of-Day SMS summary to the owner. Everything a detailer does on the road, done from their phone.
Track your DI tank by PPM × gallons — not flat gallons. Live capacity gauge, sidebar alerts before resin exhaustion, per-job water cost, and customer-water FREE toggle so detailers never eat a cost they didn't incur.
Tap Start in the morning, tap End at night. GPT-5 Vision reads the odometer number straight off the dashboard photo. Auto-cascades into your IRS Year-End Summary as a tax credit on every day's P&L — with photo audit trail baked in.
Snap a gas receipt at the pump. GPT-5 Vision extracts gallons + price/gal + station + date. Rolling actual cost/mile (30-day window) becomes the new primary source for job P&L — no more flat-rate guesses.
Stacked area chart per fleet vehicle: fuel + maintenance + depreciation. A 4-week-vs-prior-4-week trend chip turns rose when costs are climbing — so you catch the truck killing your margins before the month ends, not after.
Add unlimited trucks, vans, and personal cars. Assign each vehicle to a specific worker or leave it in the shared pool. Each detailer picks their car from their phone. Cost-per-mile follows the vehicle, not the driver.
A full 4th workspace inside your Legacy IO account. Household budget, bills tracker, net worth ledger, debt payoff engine and savings goals — the exact system every 'run your money like a business' guru sells for $497. Included with Pro.
Enter every card, loan, and BNPL. The engine picks the highest-APR debt first, rolls freed-up minimums into the next one, and shows you the exact month you'll be debt-free. See how much interest you save vs. the minimums-only trap.
Auto-computes your emergency fund target from your essentials budget × months of coverage. Then unlimited savings goals with auto-calc completion dates. Because you can't scale a business while personal money is on fire.
Every manual transaction lives in a Plaid-compatible schema, so the day we flip the switch, your bank feed goes live instantly — with zero re-entry. Auto-categorization + a review queue you approve from your phone.
Every category, budgeted vs. actual, live from your Daily Log. Status chips flag every category as On track / Watch / Over so you catch overspending BEFORE the credit card statement hits.
Every module. Every column header. Every alert. Flip the switch in the top-right and the entire OS speaks Spanish — landing page, dashboards, invoices, sheets, help text. Unlock the entire LatAm detailing market in one click.
Daily Work Log, Chemical Inventory, Payroll, Taxes, Accounting Dashboard, Client Profiles, Financing, Gas & Mileage, and now full Personal Finance — the 32-sheet detailing operating system PLUS a household finance system, all pre-built.
Three systems just shipped — built from real detailer pain, not feature checklists.

Four color-coded operating levels watch your personal + business cash, protected obligations and 90-day forecasts — and tell you exactly what to cut before cash hits zero.

Upload three photos and the AI Video Creator renders real MP4 lessons with your own avatar presenting every scene — same face, every video, powered by Veo 3.1.

Turn your detailing knowledge into paid courses — curriculum builder, slideshows, multi-page lessons, quizzes, certificates and student analytics, with an AI co-writer on tap.
Every detailer's business — and personal life — grows through the same predictable stages. Legacy IO is the only platform with the modules for each one. You never outgrow us. You never migrate again.
Track jobs, quote clients in 30 seconds, run mileage vs. fuel, and export IRS-ready reports. Free up to 20 jobs, then $8.99 Starter or $29.99 Pro.
Upgrade to Premium ($59.99). Add reps, invite them, and each gets their own /rep portal. They log placements + sales; you approve.
Reps recruit reps. Set your override % once. A self-scaling street team compounds your revenue with zero fixed payroll overhead.
Upgrade to Platinum ($99). Your existing tools become a semi-passive rental business AND your service vehicles get true cost-per-mile tracking — Trust Score gating, RTO agreements, auto-computed valuation, curved depreciation, and drive-fee math injected into every quote.
A whole 4th workspace: household budget, bills tracker, net-worth ledger, avalanche debt payoff, savings goals & Plaid-ready bank sync. Because scaling a business while your personal money is on fire is how detailers burn out. Included with Pro+.
A full bookkeeping layer that reads directly from your jobs, inventory, payments and payroll — no double entry, no month-end scramble. Chart of accounts, double-entry-compatible ledger, monthly close, tax package, and accountant portal all included.
Financial reports and tax estimates are provided for business management purposes and are not tax or accounting advice.
Each action inside the OS auto-updates every downstream system. Fewer spreadsheets, fewer sync errors, fewer late nights reconciling.
Twelve deeply integrated modules. Every action touches only what it should — never the same data entered twice.
Run your business books cleanly, then get optional visibility into your personal picture — household budget, net worth, debt payoff — inside the same login. Business and personal transactions are never automatically combined.
Personal Finance is optional and can be excluded from any calculations you choose.
An honest look at what generic tools DO and DON'T give a detailing business. Where competitors have partial support, we mark it — we're not going to pretend they have zero features.

Based on publicly-listed features as of Feb 2026. “Field CRM” represents category leaders (Jobber, HouseCall Pro, Workiz). “Manual” means possible with spreadsheet formulas but requires you to build + maintain it yourself. “Add-on” means available only via a paid third-party integration. Comparison intended as a decision aid — verify current features on each vendor's pricing page before switching.
