Do I have to change my shop management software?
Not necessarily. If your current system can connect, the AI books and updates repair orders inside it. If it cannot, or you want one system for scheduling, estimates, inspections, parts and payments, Pista covers it. The free AI audit checks your setup first and recommends the cheaper path, not the bigger project.
