Every oil change, every repair, every inspection — tied to your VIN and in your pocket.
Whether you're a DIYer logging your own work, an owner keeping records straight,
or a shop that wants customers to trust you for life — TemplateVault is the vehicle's permanent memory.
You did the timing belt yourself. You know you did it right. But three years from now, will you remember the mileage? Will whoever buys this truck?
You've got receipts in the glove box, a folder on the counter, and a shop that closed two years ago. When your mechanic asks what's been done — you guess.
Self-employed? Track business miles for your IRS deduction — right alongside your vehicle records.
Your customer leaves and their history goes with them. The next shop starts from scratch. You never get credit for the work you did.
You drive for work — deliveries, client visits, job sites. Every mile is a potential tax deduction. But you're logging it in a notes app, guessing at year-end, or not tracking it at all. The IRS wants mileage logs. TemplateVault keeps them — automatically, tied to your vehicle, ready for your accountant.
Search or scan your VIN. Log your work — or let your shop log it. Oil changes, tires, inspections, repairs, photos. It all lives on the vehicle record, not on a receipt or in someone else's software.
Every record is anchored to the vehicle — not the shop, not the owner.
DIY or shop-logged — inspections, repairs, photos, and dates all in one place.
Sell the car and hand over the full history. Visit a new shop and give them access. You're always in control.
Built for DIYers, owners, and shops — all on the same VIN.
