Rev capabilities

Everything Rev can do

Rev isn't a chatbot tacked onto a maintenance app. It's an AI mechanic with read and write access to your garage — your vehicles, service history, parts, schedule, build plan, and shops. Here's the full picture.

Memory & context

Knows your garage

Rev has structured access to every record you keep. No re-typing context. No "what car are we talking about?" Each turn already knows your vehicles, mileage, parts, history, and shops.

Reads your full service history

Every oil change, brake job, mod, and shop visit you've ever logged. Rev can recall any entry by date, mileage, category, or vehicle.

Tracks current mileage and what's overdue

Rev knows your odometer, your scheduled intervals, and exactly which items have slipped past their due date or mileage.

Knows the parts on your shelf

Owned, wanted, ordered. Quantities and locations. Rev can answer "do I have what I need?" before you turn a wrench.

Multi-vehicle memory

Daily driver, project car, motorcycle, RV — Rev keeps each garage separate and switches context the moment you do.

Remembers your service shops

Which shop did the timing belt? Who's good for alignments? Rev keeps your shop list with notes, ratings, and visit history.

Activity feed across vehicles

"What did I do last week?" Rev pulls a unified timeline across every vehicle so you don't have to dig through each one.

Diagnose & research

Diagnoses problems. Researches repairs.

Rev pairs your garage data with live web research and a knowledge base of recalls and bulletins. No more page-3-of-Google for the answer.

Snap a photo, get a diagnosis

Leak under the car? Worn belt? Mystery part? Take a photo. Rev identifies it and tells you what to do, for your vehicle. Works in the iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android apps and the web app.

Recalls and service bulletins for your year/make/model

NHTSA recalls and TSBs for your specific vehicle, retrieved automatically when you ask about a symptom or system.

Live repair research with parts, prices, and torque specs

Ask how to do something. Rev searches the web, structures the answer, and lists parts, prices, tools, and torque values you'll need.

Pre-purchase inspection checklists

Looking at a used car? Rev generates a model-specific PPI checklist — common failure points, things to test-drive, red flags to refuse.

Tracks your build plan

Wishlist → planned → ordered → installed. Rev knows what mods you're working toward and what's already on the car.

Flags duplicates before you log them

About to add an item that's already on your fix list? Rev catches it and points you at the existing entry instead of stacking duplicates.

Agentic actions

Takes action — with your OK

Rev doesn't just answer. It writes to your garage. Logs, items, parts, mileage updates, build progress — all by conversation. Every change is described and confirmed before it happens.

Logs maintenance for you

“Logged an oil change today, 5W-30 Mobil 1, 62,340 miles” — Rev drafts the entry with date, mileage, category, parts and cost, and saves it when you confirm.

Adds issues, scheduled work, and reminders

“Add a reminder to swap to summer tires next month” or “flag this clunk as critical” — Rev proposes the right kind of action item and adds it once you confirm.

Updates your odometer in seconds

“I’m at 184,200 km now” — confirm the new reading and the mileage is updated, the schedule recalculated and overdue items flagged.

Marks items complete and logs the work

Finish a fix from your list, and Rev offers to close the item and log the work at the right mileage. You confirm once and both happen.

Rev always asks before it changes anything

Reading your data is free-form. Writing to it is not. Every create, update, and delete is described in plain language and gated behind your explicit yes — "yes", "go ahead", "да", "sí", "はい". Until you confirm, nothing in your garage moves.

Localized

Speaks your language

Rev adapts to where you live and how you measure. Same engine, native to each language and unit system.

Replies in your language

GarageHub comes in 13 languages: English, Bulgarian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Portuguese, Dutch and Romanian. Rev answers in the one you set, or in whichever one you write to it in.

Your units. Your currency.

Miles or kilometres. USD, EUR, BGN, JPY, anything. Rev formats every number the way your garage uses it.

Same Rev on iOS, Android, and the web

Switch devices mid-conversation. Same memory of your garage, same tools, same agentic loop. The only thing that changes is the screen.

Best way to understand Rev is to talk to it about your own car.

In the chat

What you'll see in chat

Rev's replies aren't just walls of text. When the answer is structured — a vehicle, a service log, a fix list — Rev hands you a tappable card you can act on.

GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat: the owner types that they changed the Civic’s oil with Mobil 1 0W-20 and a Honda filter at 58,240 miles. Rev shows a confirm card for an oil and filter change with the odometer, the cost, the oil and filter it will take off the parts shelf, and the next oil change at 65,740 miles or March 2027, then replies that it’s done.GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat: the owner types that they changed the Civic’s oil with Mobil 1 0W-20 and a Honda filter at 58,240 miles.

Service log. Tell Rev what you did in one sentence. Once you confirm, it logs the service, takes the parts off your shelf and moves the next oil change.
GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat for a 1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata: asked to put the timing belt on Up Next using parts on the shelf, Rev shows a confirm card for a critical timing belt and water pump job, last done at 87k miles eight years ago, with the Gates kit from the shelf linked, then replies that it’s done.GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat for a 1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata: asked to put the timing belt on Up Next using parts on the shelf, Rev shows a confirm card for a critical timing belt and water pump job, last done at 87k miles eight years ago, with the Gates kit from the shelf linked, then replies that it’s done.
Rev asks first. Rev proposes the timing belt for Up Next as critical, with the kit on your shelf linked, and adds it once you confirm.
GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat for a 2018 Honda Civic Si: the owner asks whether brakes that squeal for a couple of minutes after a cold start are a worry. Rev checks the brake history first (pads and rotors, brake fluid six weeks ago), explains the squeal is surface rust burning off the rotors, lists when to book it in, and gives its verdict: normal, nothing to fix today.GarageHub on iPhone, Rev chat for a 2018 Honda Civic Si: the owner asks whether brakes that squeal for a couple of minutes after a cold start are a worry.

Under the hood

How Rev stays current

Rev doesn't reload your entire garage every turn — that would be slow and expensive. Instead, three things happen behind the scenes.

  1. 01.

    Refreshes its memory of your garage

    Rev keeps a compact summary of each vehicle — recent logs, open items, parts, mileage — and rebuilds it in the background as your data changes.

  2. 02.

    Searches recalls and bulletins on demand

    When your question matches a known issue, Rev pulls the relevant NHTSA recall or manufacturer bulletin and works it into the answer.

  3. 03.

    Saves repair research for next time

    Every live web research session is stored against your vehicle. Ask the same question again in six months — Rev pulls back what it found before.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What can Rev actually do?

Rev reads your service history, parts, mileage, schedule, build plan and shops. It diagnoses problems from photos, looks up recalls and bulletins, researches repairs with parts and prices, and builds pre-purchase inspection checklists. It also writes to your garage — logs maintenance, adds issues, updates mileage, tracks your build — each time after you confirm.

Does Rev change my records without asking?

No. When Rev wants to log a job, add an item or set a reminder, it shows you what it will save. Nothing is written until you confirm.

Can Rev diagnose car problems from a photo?

Yes. Snap a leak, a worn part, a warning light or a part you don’t recognise, and Rev identifies it for your vehicle. Photo diagnosis works in the iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android apps and the web app.

What languages does Rev speak?

GarageHub comes in 13 languages: English, Bulgarian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Portuguese, Dutch and Romanian. Rev replies in the language you set, or in whichever one you write to it in.

Does Rev work the same on iOS, Android and the web?

Yes. Rev runs on our servers, so it has the same memory of your garage and the same tools in the iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android apps and the web app. Only the screen changes.

All of this. About your own car.
