Fleet inspections versus shop billing
Whip Around is built for fleet operators: customizable digital inspections, defect follow-up, work orders, PM schedules, DOT and FMCSA compliance workflows and AI-powered inspection photos. A repair business that serves those fleets needs the other half: estimates, approvals, parts and invoices to outside customers. MetaFleet gives fleet customers a portal to request and approve work instead.
