Built for Real Auto Body Shops

Most shops still run their production on whiteboards, sticky notes, or spreadsheets.

Helios replaces all of that with one live production board where every job, technician, and deadline is visible in real time.

The result: fewer bottlenecks, better communication, and a shop that runs smoother every day.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

  • See everything at once – Job status, repair phase, parts hold, technician workload—it’s all color-coded and crystal clear.
  • Spot issues early – Stay ahead of delays by flagging bottlenecks before they snowball.
  • Run your shop your way – Mobile-ready, real-time synced, and built for the floor, not the back office.

Whether you’re walking the shop floor or checking in remotely, Helios gives you the confidence and clarity to keep operations humming.
