Mechanic Time Tracking App for Automotive Technicians

Not a shop time clock

Many time tracking tools are built for managers, payroll departments, or shop-wide employee monitoring. Flat Rate Tracker is different. It is a personal tracking tool for the automotive technician who wants an independent record of the work they completed.

Your dealership has its records. Flat Rate Tracker gives you your own: repair orders, jobs, flagged hours, pay status, and historical totals you can review before payroll.

What technicians can track

Flat Rate Tracker is focused on the workflow flat-rate technicians actually care about. You can log workorders, add the jobs or operations inside each RO, record flagged hours, review pay periods, and keep historical work information in one place.

That makes it useful whether you are checking current pay-period progress, looking up an older job, or comparing your personal flat rate hours against a paycheck.

Why paper and spreadsheets fall short

A notebook can work until it gets lost, soaked, or left in a toolbox. A spreadsheet can work until it becomes too slow to update from a phone. Mechanic time tracking is most useful when it is easy to maintain during the workday and organized enough to review later.

Useful during paycheck review

The practical value is simple: track your work, know your flagged hours, then check your paycheck. If something does not match, you have the RO numbers, job details, dates, and hour totals needed to investigate the discrepancy.

Built for flat-rate tracking

Flat Rate Tracker uses the language and structure of automotive technician work: repair orders, jobs, flag hours, paid and unpaid workorders, reports, and pay-period totals. It is not trying to be a full dealership management system.
