AUTOHOUND INNOVATION COUNCIL

Build AutoHound with us.

Council members work directly with AutoHound product leaders to pressure-test ideas, preview selected workflows, and help ensure new features work in real collision operations.

A limited council for active collision shops that want a direct voice in AutoHound's product direction.

HOW IT WORKS

Built with shops, not just for them

Your team knows where work stalls, where software gets in the way, and what would actually save time. We turn that operating knowledge into better product decisions.

1

Show us the real workflow

Walk us through the handoffs, workarounds, and repeat problems your team deals with today.

2

Test what is relevant

Preview concepts or try new features when they apply to your shop. You are never expected to test everything.

3

Close the loop

Tell us what worked, what did not, and what would make it useful in daily collision operations.

COUNCIL MEMBER BENEFITS

What council members get

Useful access and practical support for shops willing to share honest operating feedback.

01

Direct product-leadership access

Reach the people setting priorities without working through layers of account management.

02

Early feature access

Preview selected workflows before wide release and help catch what does not fit the shop floor.

03

Roadmap influence

Bring recurring shop problems into discovery sessions, prototypes, and product reviews.

04

Quarterly workflow review

Use a focused working session to examine one process that is costing the shop time or visibility.

05

Priority issue escalation

Operationally important problems get a faster path to product and engineering review.

06

Private peer roundtables

Join optional conversations with other operators who are solving similar collision-shop problems.

THE WORKING AGREEMENT

What we ask. What we protect.

The program works when feedback is specific, participation is voluntary, and neither side wastes the other's time.

What we ask from your shop

  • 01

    Share candid context about how the work actually moves

  • 02

    Join occasional focused calls, usually 30 to 45 minutes

  • 03

    Test only the concepts and features relevant to your operation

  • 04

    Close the loop with clear examples of what worked and what did not

What AutoHound promises

  • 01

    No expectation that you test every release

  • 02

    No unfinished workflow placed into live operations without your consent

  • 03

    No public use of your shop's name or feedback without approval

  • 04

    No promise that every request ships, but clear follow-up on what we learned

WHO IT FITS

A strong council member is...

We are looking for operating partners, not a particular shop size or repair mix.

01

Running real work

Your team uses AutoHound in daily operations or is ready to do so.

02

Close to the floor

An owner, manager, or process lead can explain where work gets stuck.

03

Specific with feedback

Your team can show the problem, not just ask for another button.

04

Open to iteration

You want practical improvement and understand that early ideas will change.

APPLY TO JOIN

Tell us about your shop

We will use this to understand your operation, the problems you care about, and whether the program is a good fit for both sides.

Limited council membership
No separate program fee
No obligation to test everything

Participation stays flexible. Early previews may change as the product develops.

Email your interest

Tell us your name, shop, role, number of locations, approximate team size, and the part of your operation that most needs improvement.

Please confirm that you are authorized to discuss the shop's workflow. Participation is limited and by invitation.
