After spending nearly two decades as a master mechanic, I've witnessed firsthand how the auto industry often prioritizes profit over honesty. Too many times, I watched innocent customers get pressured into unnecessary repairs, overcharged for labor, or sold parts they didn't need.
The breaking point came when I realized I was contributing to a system that exploited people's lack of technical knowledge. Shop managers pushed quotas. Technicians got bonuses for upselling. Diagnostic fees were waived only if customers approved expensive repairs. I couldn't be part of that anymore.
So I walked away from the shop floor and started Auto Analyst with a simple mission: give customers the truth they deserve.
Now, I use my expertise to level the playing field. Every repair quote I analyze, every diagnostic plan I create, and every pre-purchase inspection I conduct is about protecting you from the tactics I used to see every single day.
