Built for UK bike shops & mobile bike mechanics

Run your whole bike workshop from the stand.

MechanoMan takes you from first enquiry to paid invoice — quotes, booked-in services, parts and stock, invoicing and automatic chasing of late payers — in one app that works on your phone even when there's no signal.

Everything in one place

One app for the whole job — not five

Stop juggling a notebook, a spreadsheet, a messaging app and a separate invoicing tool. MechanoMan covers the full operational lifecycle of a bike workshop.

Enquiries & quotes

Capture an enquiry, turn it into a professional quote in seconds, send it by email with a PDF attached, and convert it straight to a job when the customer says yes.

Jobs with task breakdown

Build jobs from reusable templates — "Basic Service", "Full Service", "Puncture Fix", "Tubeless Conversion" and more. Each materialises an editable task list, scheduled and assigned to the right technician.

Route-planned days

For mobile bike mechanics: one tap re-orders the day's callouts into the shortest drive, with distance and drive-time estimates for every stop. Less time driving, more time wrenching.

Parts & inventory

Tubes, chains, cassettes, sealant — log parts against a job, track stock automatically, and get low-stock alerts before the workshop runs dry.

Invoices & PDFs

Generate clean A4 invoices with your business header, VAT and totals. Send them as a PDF and let customers pay online by card via a secure payment link.

Card & cash payments

Take card payments online through Stripe — connect your own account and the money lands straight in your bank — or record a cash or bank-transfer payment manually. Haven't set up card payments yet? Your portal shows customers your bank-transfer details instead. Everything reconciles to the invoice automatically.

Automatic invoice chasing

A built-in dunning worker escalates overdue invoices — email first, then email + SMS — at set thresholds, and never sends the same reminder twice. You get paid without the awkward phone calls.

Reports & analytics

See cash collected this month, outstanding receivables, overdue amounts, open jobs, quote win-rate and a technician leaderboard — all on a single dashboard.

Offline-first field app

Update tasks, log time and record parts even with no signal. Changes apply instantly and sync the moment you're back online — even after closing the app.

Push notifications

Technicians are pinged the moment a job is assigned. Owners and managers are notified when an invoice is paid in full. No more checking in.

GDPR & data control

Record consent, export everything you hold on a customer, and erase personal data on request while keeping the financial records the law requires you to keep.

HMRC Making Tax Digital Add-on

File your VAT returns and Self Assessment (ITSA) quarterly updates straight to HMRC from your books — digitally linked, no re-keying. An optional add-on, bundled into the Workshop plan.

Tool & asset register Add-on

Keep a register of your workshop tools and demo fleet — assignments, service history and maintenance-due alerts. Staff check kit in and out right on the app. An optional add-on.

Built for the workshop, not the desk

Works where you work — even with no signal

Basement workshops, event paddocks, roadside callouts. MechanoMan is offline-first, so your technicians never get blocked mid-job.

  • Read jobs, tasks and parts straight from the device cache.
  • Change status, log time and record parts — changes apply instantly.
  • Queued work syncs automatically when signal returns — even after a restart.

Owners, managers & technicians

Everyone sees exactly what they should

Role-based access keeps the books with the boss and the spanners with the team. Technicians only see the jobs assigned to them — no customer lists, no pricing, no invoices.

  • Built-in owner, manager and technician roles — plus custom roles you define.
  • Field-level permissions: control who can reschedule, reassign or re-price.
  • Change the rules at any time — no developer, no redeploy.

Stop chasing late payers by hand

Unpaid invoices are the silent killer of small trades. MechanoMan watches every invoice and escalates politely but persistently until it's settled.

  • Three escalating reminder levels — email, then email + SMS.
  • Each reminder logged so a customer is never double-chased.
  • A pay-by-card link in every reminder, so settling up is one tap.
  • Connect your own Stripe account and card payments pay out straight to your bank.

Give your customers their own portal

Every customer gets a private portal to approve quotes, follow their job, pay invoices and book their next visit — on your own web address, in your own colours. Fewer "where's my invoice?" texts, and a business that looks a size bigger.

  • Approve or decline quotes with one tap — you're notified the moment they decide.
  • Follow the job task-by-task, view invoices and payment history, download the PDF.
  • Pay the outstanding balance online by card — or see your bank-transfer details when card payments aren't set up.
  • Book an appointment from your real availability — it lands as an enquiry for you to confirm.
  • Sign in with a one-tap magic link — no passwords, no accounts for them to manage.
  • Your logo, your colours, your own domain (portal.yourbikeshop.co.uk) — your brand front and centre.

Whether it's just you, or a team of ten

MechanoMan scales from a one-person operation to a small fleet — same app, more seats.

Solo bike mechanics

You're the boss, the booker and the spanner. MechanoMan handles the admin so you can stay on the stand.

  • Look professional with branded quotes and invoices.
  • Get paid faster with card links and automatic reminders.
  • Know your numbers without an accountant on speed-dial.
  • Run the whole thing from your phone between jobs.

Bike shops & teams

A few technicians, a busy stand, services to coordinate. Keep everyone in sync and the cash flowing.

  • Assign jobs and watch progress in real time.
  • Roles & permissions so the right people see the right things.
  • A technician leaderboard and hours logged per person.
  • Shared parts inventory with low-stock alerts.
Simple, honest pricing

Every plan includes the everyday toolkit for running the business. Plans differ by how many people are on the team — and larger plans bundle in specialist add-ons. Start with a 14-day free trial: card on file, cancel any time before it ends and you won't be charged.

Good questions

Frequently asked

How does the free trial work?

When you create a workspace you enter your card details securely through Stripe and your 14-day free trial begins. You won't be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel any time before then from the billing portal — no charge, no questions.

Do my technicians need their own accounts?

Yes — each team member gets their own login with a role (owner, manager or technician, or a custom role you create). Technicians only see the jobs assigned to them, keeping customer and financial data private.

What happens if I lose signal on a job?

Nothing stops. The app is offline-first: you can read your jobs and keep working — updating tasks, logging time and recording parts. Your changes are saved on the device and sync automatically when you're back online, even if you closed the app in between.

How do customers pay me?

You can send a secure card payment link powered by Stripe, or record a cash or bank-transfer payment manually. Connect your own Stripe account and card payments go directly to you — you're the merchant of record, paid straight into your bank. Either way it reconciles against the invoice, and everyone with the right role is notified when it's paid in full.

Do my customers get anything online?

Yes — every customer gets a private portal, on your own web address and in your branding, where they can follow their job's progress, view their invoices and payment history, download the PDF and pay the balance by card. They sign in with a secure magic link sent to their email — no password to set up — and that link is included in every invoice and reminder you send. You can point it at your own domain (e.g. portal.yourbikeshop.co.uk) with your logo and colours, so it feels like part of your business.

Is my data safe and GDPR-compliant?

MechanoMan is built GDPR-first for the UK and EU. Each business's data lives in its own isolated database. We record consent, let you export everything held on a customer, and support right-to-erasure — anonymising personal data while keeping the financial records you're legally required to retain.

Can I file my VAT and tax through it?

Yes, with the HMRC Making Tax Digital add-on. Connect your Government Gateway account and file VAT returns and Self Assessment (ITSA) quarterly updates straight to HMRC from the figures already in MechanoMan — digitally linked, with no spreadsheets to re-key. It's an optional add-on, and it's bundled into the Workshop plan.

Can I keep track of my tools and equipment?

Yes, with the tool & asset register add-on. Keep a register of your workshop tools and demo fleet with service history and maintenance-due alerts, and let staff check kit in and out from the app so you always know who has what. It's an optional add-on you can add to any plan.

Which devices does it run on?

One codebase, everywhere: iPhone, Android and any web browser. Sign in once and pick up where you left off on any device.
