# Software for brake, suspension, and exhaust shops.

Show the finding, describe the repair, and get the customer's decision. Keep the approved scope with the job and invoice.

[See how it works](#feature-workflow)

[Shop types / Brake, suspension & exhaust](https://usebrinlo.com/shop-types/)

## Front brake pads and rotors

One job. Connected records.

1.  Front axle parts and labor
2.  Inspection photo and note
3.  Decision on added work
4.  Approved-work invoice

## From the finding to the agreed repair.

### Describe the repair clearly

Name the parts and labor in the estimate. Use the description to distinguish front from rear work or one side from the other.

[Write the estimate](https://usebrinlo.com/features/estimates/)

### Show what you found

Attach a photo and note to the inspection finding. The customer can review the work and approve or decline individual jobs.

[Record inspection findings](https://usebrinlo.com/features/inspections/)

### Keep the decision with the job

If the scope changes, send the revision for reapproval. Only approved work converts to the invoice.

## What Brinlo covers

Inspection records

Use the editable general-repair checklist, photos, and notes. An inspection finding is evidence for review, not permission to perform the repair.

Technical repair information

Keep using your repair references and equipment for torque specifications, alignment readings, and diagnostic procedures. Brinlo keeps the job records, not the technical repair database.

Repeat work

Reuse descriptions or duplicate an earlier estimate. Review the parts, labor, and price for the current vehicle before sending it for approval.

## Keep the work and the customer decision together.

Write the estimate, get approval, and keep the invoice and balance with the job.
