What is vehicle job card data extraction?
A vehicle job card is the document a workshop or garage creates every time a vehicle comes in for service, repair, or inspection. It records the customer's details, the vehicle's make, model, and registration, every job carried out, the parts used, the hours billed, and the final cost. It is the source of truth for workshop billing, parts inventory, and service history.
Automotive workshops and fleet management teams process dozens of these cards every day. Manually keying that data into a dealer management system, ERP, or fleet platform is slow and error-prone. A mistyped registration number or wrong part code can corrupt service records and delay invoicing.
Vehicle job card data extraction uses AI and OCR to automatically read and capture every field from a job card, whether it arrives as a PDF, a scan, or an email attachment. No typing. No transcription errors. The data lands in your system clean and ready.
Parseur handles job cards from any workshop software, dealer group, or custom-printed form, in any layout.
