Cloud-Platform for car wash systems

Five modules.
One login.
One data pool.

Maintenance lists, damage claims, chemicals & stock, service and analyses. What is ticked off or booked on the tablet appears in the dashboard without any intermediate step — as evidence, as a case file and as a per-vehicle metric.

The highlighted connections are the two that save the most in daily operation: meter readings from the maintenance list and consumption bookings from stock become the metric per vehicle without any transfer.

The main database and the separate interface for personal data run at Hetzner in Nuremberg and Falkenstein.

The five modules

What each module takes over in daily operation

Each module can be booked individually. The overview shows point by point what it contains — and which devices it is operated from.

Maintenance lists

Tick off inspection points instead of keeping binders. Every completion gets a time, a name and a record — the evidence is there before anyone asks for it.

  • Your own listsChecklists based on your inspection schedule — daily, weekly, monthly or freely composed.
  • Individual tasksEvery inspection point is freely defined: visual check, measured value, cleaning.
    • Number fieldsMeter readings for water and electricity are entered directly in the list. The value flows into the analysis without any transfer.
  • Individual intervalsDue dates can be set freely per list — lists due today appear in the dashboard with their completion status.
  • NotificationsA reminder when a list is due or has been missed.
  • Retrospective entriesMissed inspection points can be entered later with the actual time — traceable in the completion history.

Damage claims

The scrap of paper becomes a case file: driver, vehicle, photos, registration document, damage items and signature in one process.

  • Customer requestRecorded directly on the tablet — or the customer enters the claim themselves via QR code, without access to your data.
  • Automatic customer emailThe customer receives confirmation of their claim without anyone typing.
  • Printout for the customerThe claim as a receipt to take away — straight from the case file.
  • All files on the case fileVideos, images, PDF: everything on the case, nothing on an employee's phone.
  • AI rejection letterA draft based on the case file and your previous rejections — computed locally, without internet access.
    • Ready to printas a letter for printing
    • Ready to sendas an email to the customer
  • RetentionCase files are kept for at least four years before deletion.

Chemicals & stock

Stock, orders and consumption in one place — so no canister runs empty on a Saturday morning.

  • Open ordersSpare parts and chemicals in view until the goods arrive.
  • Goods receiptBook the delivery, stock updates itself.
  • ConsumptionBooked via list or QR/barcode scanner.
    • Chemical dosage per vehiclecalculated from consumption and wash counts — ends up in the analysis
  • Stock trackingStore minimum levels, see critical items and stock value in the dashboard.

One data pool

What is recorded, the platform works through per vehicle

Two connections are the core of the overview: number fields from the maintenance lists and consumption bookings from chemicals & stock flow into the analysis with no step in between. No transfer, no second spreadsheet.

Outliers are flagged. Creeping excess consumption shows up within the month, not only in the utility company's annual bill. The effort: entering meter readings once a month — a few minutes.

Recording

Recording happens where the work happens

The platform does not depend on your wash control system. It is the layer above — operated from the devices that are already there.

Tablet in kiosk mode

PIN-protected. Shows only the list to be ticked off — no login, no searching.

Maintenance lists · Damage claims

Company phone

Mobile app with its own account and its own notifications — service cases and approvals on the move.

Service · Notifications

Browser in the office

Dashboard, analyses, orders, roles and permissions — you open the analysis wherever you sit.

All modules

QR link for customers

The customer enters the damage claim themselves — without access to your data. The confirmation of receipt goes out automatically by email.

Damage claims

QR/barcode scanner

Book consumption and goods receipt without typing — stock updates with the scan.

Chemicals & stock
Roles and permissions

Everyone sees their own site — and within it only their modules

Permissions are limited twice: first to the site, then to the module. An employee ticking off maintenance lists sees no damage case files — and no second site.

Super admin

Unrestricted access and all permissions — across all sites. Usually the owner or the management.

Site admin

Access and permissions limited to their own site. Sees all modules and processes of their site, not those of the others.

Employee account

Enabled per site and per module: damage claims, stock or maintenance lists. More permissions only exist if someone grants them.

Basic (tablet)

The account for the on-site tablet: kiosk mode, PIN-protected, with no access to analyses, case files or settings.

Data sovereignty

Data protection is not a chapter in the contract but part of the architecture

Servers in Germany

Hetzner, Nuremberg and Falkenstein. Personal data — name, address, number plate — sits on a separate interface, not in the same data set as your operational data. No US cloud, no third-country transfer.

Local AI without internet access

The language model for rejection letters runs on our server in Germany and has no access to the internet. The case does not leave the system. You read the draft, change it, approve it.

Encryption and access

Database encryption with AES-CBC, TLS for every connection, two-factor login and roles per account. Daily backups.

Documents before signing

Data processing agreement, data protection impact assessment and TOM documentation are available before you sign — not on request.

Next step

Two details are enough for your price range

We do not need an on-site meeting for a reliable estimate. Have these two points ready and the rest is settled on the phone.

  1. How many sites or car wash tunnels are to be equipped
  2. Which of the five modules you need

You speak directly with the developer and owner, not with a call centre. If a single module is enough for your operation, we tell you so — instead of selling you five.
