- Every week we rebuild car count, ARO and gross profit in a spreadsheet.
- Declined work never gets followed up.
- Technician hours and efficiency are worked out by hand.
- Accounting entries get retyped from the end-of-day report.
- We cannot compare this month to last year without a lot of digging.

## What we build

Each one is a working piece you can open and check when it's done.

### Weekly shop numbers

## Questions people ask first

**Does Mitchell 1 have an API?**

Not a public one for shop data. We build from Manager SE reports and exports and its existing add-ons.

**Will this replace Manager SE?**

No. Your service writers keep working there. We handle the reporting and follow-up around it.

**Can you connect it to QuickBooks?**

Mitchell 1 offers its own QuickBooks add-on. Where that does not fit, we format the daily totals for your bookkeeper.

**Is it a lot of manual exporting?**

Usually one export on a set day. We keep that step short.
