Keel

A workshop app: the job card, MOT slot, courtesy car, and keys-hold are the same object.

Keel ran the day as a diary, a pegboard, and a key drawer. One courtesy Polo had two names on it by lunch.

The job is the object. MOT, parts, warranty, and the loan car live on it. Ready does not mean keys until money is on the record.

Today, bays, parts, courtesy, exceptions, warranties, people — one Polo, a warranty fight, and an unpaid Octavia.

Workshop days still fail when the card is not the keys: workshop job card software for the MOT slot, the courtesy car, and the invoice.

The problem

Diary for bookings, parts on a pegboard, courtesy keys in a drawer, warranty arguments in a group chat.

What we built
