TireTutor Debuts AI DVI, the Most Advanced AI-powered Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI) Software to Drive Service Bay Efficiency for Tire Dealers

‍BOSTON, MA, March 3, 2026 - TireTutor, the AI-native shop management system™, today announced the late-stage beta rollout of its AI-Powered Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI), now expanding across its dealer base through a closed, invite-only release. The DVI is part of TireTutor’s Shop Management System and is purpose-built for tire dealers growing their automotive repair business. As shops face increasing pressure to manage higher volumes with limited staff, TireTutor’s AI DVI automates the most time-consuming parts of the inspection, ensuring technicians spend more time turning wrenches and less time on paperwork.

A New Standard for the Service Bay

Whether a shop is moving away from manual processes or looking to upgrade their existing tech stack, TireTutor’s AI DVI offers a tailored path to efficiency:

• For Shops Transitioning from Paper: The AI DVI provides a revolutionary jump in professionalism. It replaces grease-stained paper checklists with a sleek, digital interface that allows technicians to capture photos and videos, instantly building a level of customer trust that paper simply cannot provide.
• For DVI-Experienced Shops: TireTutor goes a step beyond traditional digital tools by using AI to remove the "data-entry tax." By automating vehicle identification and report writing, the platform makes the inspection process faster and less tedious for technicians, helping them focus on the repair rather than the tablet.

Frictionless Inspections Driven by AI

The platform introduces several key "AI-first" features to the service workflow:

• Instant Vehicle Onboarding: Technicians simply snap a photo of a license plate or VIN. The AI instantly parses the data and populates vehicle fields, ensuring accuracy and saving valuable minutes on every car.
• AI-Generated Customer Summaries: After a technician documents the vehicle's condition, the AI drafts a professional, easy-to-read narrative summary that can be edited by the technician, and which includes breakdown of required and suggested services, a total cost estimate and a one-click approval option. This ensures every customer receives a clear, high-quality explanation of their vehicle’s health, eliminating the need for service advisors to manually draft reports. The time savings should also act as a labor replacement for dealers.
• Mobile Approval Workflow: Detailed, color-coded reports (Red/Yellow/Green) are delivered directly to the customer’s smartphone via text or email. This transparency allows for faster customer approvals and a more efficient hand-off between the shop and the driver.

Optimizing Shop Throughput

By digitizing and automating the inspection process, TireTutor is helping dealers maximize their existing resources and get more cars through their bays.

"Our goal is to meet shops where they are," said Jason Abrahams, Founder & CEO at TireTutor. "If you are still using paper, this will feel like a leap into the future. If you are already using a DVI, the AI-driven speed of this tool will be a game-changer for your daily efficiency. We are helping shops turn wrenches faster and build lasting trust with their customers."

This offering is a seamless way to modernize shop operations, improve daily shop capacity, and help dealers upsell through suggested repairs. It is available via an invite-only waitlist that is building fast.
