Embed on your site

Seamless on the website you already have

One line of code drops the booking widget into your site — themed to your brand colour, resizing itself to fit. No redirects, no developer.

<!-- paste once, anywhere -->
<script src="https://workshopbook.com.au/embed.js"
data-workshop="your-workshop"></script>

Matches your brand colour · auto-resizes · keeps customers on your site

Everything, in one place

One login. The whole job, front to back.

Every feature, on every plan. Nothing here is a paid add-on.

Online booking

Two ways to take work in — your call.

  • Your own booking page — branded with your logo and colours, or embedded in your existing site
  • One service or several in a single booking, with live availability
  • Hourly labour and multi-day drop-off jobs with estimated ready times
  • Rego & state capture, customer notes on every booking
  • Auto-confirm or manual review with a pending queue
  • Customers book themselves in around the clock — no app, no account
  • Fixed, from, range or hourly pricing per service — or “Contact for price” on the jobs you’d rather quote
  • Returning customers are pre-filled from their last booking
  • Public page with your hours, address, services and reviews — indexable by search engines

Calendar & operations

Run the whole week from one screen.

  • Day, week and month views across every bay, colour-coded by status
  • Phone and walk-in jobs added in seconds — same picker, same calendar
  • Buffer time, minimum notice, bay capacity and blockout dates
  • Printable daily run sheet and a mobile calendar for the floor
  • Dashboard: today's run, week booked, estimated revenue
  • Multi-bay capacity — online bookings can never overbook a bay
  • Hold bays back from online booking for phone and walk-in work
  • Reschedule, cancel, complete or mark no-show in one click
  • Opening hours per day, public holidays and closures
  • iCal feed — your bookings in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook

Communications

Less phone tag, fewer no-shows.

  • Email & SMS confirmations and reminders, sent as your workshop
  • Reschedule and cancellation notices handled automatically
  • Customer replies go to your inbox, not ours
  • New-booking alerts and a daily digest to the manager
  • Self-service manage-booking links — customers reschedule or cancel without ringing
  • Add-to-calendar buttons in every confirmation
  • Oversight copies — CC an owner or the office on every booking email

Quotes & estimating

For the jobs you can’t price off a menu.

  • Quote requests from your booking page
  • AI job estimator scopes labour and parts — you set the price
  • Customer accepts the quote and books in one step
  • Customers describe the job and their car; you send back a real quote
  • Your labour rate and parts markup drive every estimate
  • Every estimate is kept, so repeat jobs get faster and more consistent

Retention & marketing

Bring customers back without lifting a finger.

  • Post-job follow-up with Google review request, rebook link and referral code
  • Service-due reminders and vehicle-aware “your car is due” sequences
  • Win-back for lapsed customers
  • Segments, one-off campaigns and automated journeys
  • Google reviews shown on your booking page
  • Next-service-due set automatically when a job is completed
  • Per-vehicle reminder opt-out and one-click unsubscribe, handled for you

Customers, team & account

Everyone who touches the job, in one login.

  • Customer portal via magic link — history, vehicles, self-service reschedule, no password
  • Customer list with vehicles, rego and next-service-due tracking
  • Staff accounts with roles and invites
  • Help Centre guides — and a founder on the end of the email
  • Customer and vehicle records built automatically from every booking
  • Full booking history per customer and per car
  • Month-to-month billing in the app — card, invoices and plan changes without emailing anyone

Questions, answered

The stuff workshops ask us

Can I use it with the website I already have?+

Yes. Keep your site and drop the booking widget in with one line of code, or send customers to your hosted WorkshopBook page. Same engine either way.

Do my customers need an app or an account?+

No. They pick a service and time and book in under a minute — no login, no download. Their details pre-fill next time.

What about jobs I can’t price off a menu?+

Turn on quote requests. The customer describes the problem and their car, the AI estimator drafts the labour and parts, you set the price and send it. They accept and book in one step.

I still take phone bookings — does that break it?+

Not at all. Add phone and walk-in jobs to the calendar in seconds and your online availability updates instantly. You can also hold bays back from online booking altogether.

Does it handle multiple bays?+

Yes. Set your bay capacity and WorkshopBook prevents overbooking automatically, with buffer time between jobs.

Can I run more than one workshop?+

Yes. Each workshop gets its own booking page, calendar and settings, and groups are priced per site. See pricing and talk to us about your group — we’ll set the sites up together.

Is there a lock-in contract?+

No. Month to month, cancel anytime. You only pay per workshop.
