The only thing you pay for

New customers MapleDriven's AI brings you

A car owner tells our AI what their car needs, and we send the job to the closest shops that do it. You pay only when that customer comes in. No-shows are not charged, and you see the exact fee on every request before you say yes.

starts at

$5

per customer who comes in

Nothing to lose. Your shop profile and the bookings made through your shop page, QR code or link cost nothing. Want more customers looking for a shop near them, or don't want to lose the ones who call while you are busy? MapleDriven AI leads and the AI receptionist are there if you choose them - entirely your call, and you can switch them off any time.

AI receptionist · optional

Every call answered. Even when you are under a car.

Plenty of new customers find you on Google and simply call. When you are busy in the bay or out on a job, the phone rings out - and a missed call is often a missed job, because they call the next shop. Your AI receptionist picks up, answers questions about your shop, finds a free time and books it.

Without it

  • The phone rings out while you work
  • Most callers never leave a voicemail
  • They call the next shop instead

With it

  • Every call answered in seconds
  • The job lands in your calendar
  • A short summary of each call

Test it yourself before going live - switch it on only when you are happy with it.

A real test call. Long pauses shortened.

Simple price

$1per conversation

  • A call it answers, up to 5 minutes - a real caller rarely needs longer
  • A text conversation on your MapleDriven number is the same $1
  • Bookings it makes cost nothing extra
  • No monthly fee. Switch it off any time and you are not billed next month

To switch it on, add a card. We charge $1 to check the card works and give it straight back.

How that compares

What shops usually pay elsewhere

A monthly fee for the shop software, and AI receptionists that bill by the minute - plus their own monthly plan.

With MapleDriven

Shop software with no monthly fee, and $1 a conversation for the AI receptionist.

We are here to make a change in the auto industry. MapleDriven is built by a team of local software engineers, after hours of meetings with mechanics.

We give your shop its own number. Forward missed calls - or all calls - to it once, at your phone company.

2

Choose when it answers

Only when you miss a call, or every call after a few rings. Switch it off any time.

3

It books into your calendar

It checks your real free times and your services, then books the job or sends you a request to confirm.

4

You see every call

Who called, their car, what they need and what was agreed - a short summary and the full conversation.

Answers day and nightEvenings, weekends and when everyone is under a car.

Passes the call to youWhen a caller needs a person, it rings your cell or takes a message.

Share your link and QR

Put the QR code on your counter or door and the link on your social profiles — or let us do it for you, free. Your customers see which dates and times you have open before they call, and land straight on your page to book.

Choose how appointments arrive

Two ways, both optional. Switch on instant booking for a service and customers book an open slot straight away - connect your calendar too and your busy times stay blocked. Or do nothing — we contact you with the request, and you reply yes with your estimate if you have a bay free, or reply with a time that works, exactly as you would on the phone. We never ask you to replace your systems or change how you work.

WHY SHOPS STAY

No bidding. No agency. No monthly gamble.

We approach the closest shop that does the job. That is the whole algorithm.

Closest shop wins, not the biggest budget

No sponsored slots. No paying to rank above your neighbour. When a car owner needs the work you do, we contact the shops nearest to them.

Stop paying for leads that never turn into customers

A lead is not a booking. Here, bookings through your own page, QR code and link are free. No ad spend here, no SEO retainer, no agency invoice.

Change nothing about how you work

Save our number and email. You get a text instead of a call. Reply yes with your estimate, or reply with a time that suits — same as on the phone. No app, no new software.

Or let them book themselves

Switch on instant booking, set your prices and how long each job takes, and customers book an open slot instantly. You just get the notification.

No-shows are not your problem

A no-show is not a confirmed booking, so it never counts. Tell us and we warn them; after three in six months we pause the account. Customers here pick their own time, so they turn up more often than a time you gave them over the phone.

Haven't got time to set it up?

Email info@mapledriven.ca with the subject “Join — [your shop name]”. We'll call you and do it all.

PRICING

Free to join. You pay only for customers we bring.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions

No. Optional products or paid services must be presented separately. You decide whether to add them.
No. Keep your current system. You can link MapleDriven to your existing booking page or receive appointment requests through the notification options you enable.
Yes. Requests are not booked until you accept them. Instant Booking only fills open times for the services you switch it on for, and you can switch it off any time. You can update availability or pause appointments when needed.
MapleDriven emails the appointment details to the shop email on the profile and emails the customer that the request was sent. A requested time remains unconfirmed until the shop accepts it.
The customer is still deciding, and we tell you that straight away. Please hold the time until you hear from us. If they pick you, you get the booking with their name, car and number. If they go elsewhere, you are told immediately so you can fill the slot. Either way you are never left waiting on a job that has gone.
Customers choose, not us. They see every shop that replied with its time, estimated price, distance and reviews, and pick the one that suits them. Replying quickly with a clear estimate helps. Shops that switch on instant booking can be booked on the spot without texting at all, so they often get picked first.
Some profiles use public business information. Press "Ask to join" and our team will call you to hand it over, fix any details or remove it. We may ask for proof that you run the business.
MapleDriven is run by Maple Driven Inc., a federally registered Canadian company. It is built by Yabuh Ltd, a Canadian IT company with expertise in SEO, software, websites, marketing and staffing.
Any automotive business on MapleDriven that hosts with us, shows its MapleDriven QR code at the shop and has instant booking switched on (using the MapleDriven calendar or a calendar synced to it). The build is free; hosting is $200/year and business email $50/year. Already paying for hosting elsewhere? Move it to us and we will usually beat what you are paying. Scope is confirmed before work begins.
Listing, bookings from your own page and QR code, walk-ins and the shop software are free, with no monthly fee. You only pay for a customer MapleDriven's AI brings you: fees start at $5, depending on the size of the job and whether it was booked instantly or as a request you approve - you see the exact fee on every request before you accept it. You are charged when the customer came in, and also when the problem was on your side: the customer arrived on time and you could not take the car, the customer waited more than 10 minutes past the confirmed time and had to leave, or you cancelled a confirmed booking less than 12 hours before. Cancelling 12 or more hours ahead is free, a customer who does not show, or comes late and you cannot fit them in, is never charged, and a quiet month costs you nothing at all. Your own customers are free: a booking through your QR code, or someone coming straight to your profile and asking for you, costs you nothing.
No. If someone scans your QR code, searches for your shop, or lands on your profile and books with you directly, you pay nothing for that booking - whether they take an open time instantly or send you a request. They came for you, not for us. We only charge for new customers MapleDriven's AI brings you, from $5 per customer who comes in.
Instant booking is straightforward — the slot is taken and the job is yours. A booking you approve first takes more to arrange, so it costs a little more. Fees start at $5, and every request shows its exact fee before you accept it.
It is optional, and there is no monthly fee. It costs $1 per conversation: a call it answers (up to 5 minutes) or a text conversation on your MapleDriven number. Bookings it makes cost nothing extra. To switch it on you add a card - we charge $1 to check the card works and give it straight back. Switch it off any time and you are not billed the next month.
There is no ad spend, no SEO retainer and no agency invoice — and nothing at all in a month where we bring you no bookings, because you are only ever charged for a booking you actually got. You are also not bidding against shops with bigger budgets or agencies doing their SEO.
No. When a car owner needs work done, we approach the closest shops that offer that service. There is no paid placement and no way to buy your way up the list.
You are not charged for it. After every booking, answer it in your panel: "Mark done" (the customer came in), "Didn't show", "Couldn't take it" or "Came late" (the customer came late and you could not fit them in - not charged). You can block that customer from your shop, and when a car owner keeps missing bookings our team pauses them on the whole MapleDriven site and warns the shops they have booked.
Then do not. Email info@mapledriven.ca with the subject line “Join — [your shop name]” and our team will call you and set everything up for you.
Your booking QR code for your counter or front door, your Google Business Profile, and your social profiles — all at no charge when you onboard.
