Everything AutoGnome Has to Offer

Type like you talk. AutoGnome's AI parser understands queries like 'BMW specialist near Sacramento' or 'shops that carry Bilstein coilovers' — extracting location, vehicle, and service intent automatically.

Powered by Algolia. Lightning-fast keyword search across business names, descriptions, tags, services, parts, and cities — with live results as you type.

One tap uses your device location to rank nearby results first. Radius is adjustable from 5 to 100 miles directly in the filter panel.

Filter by any address, city, or ZIP code — not just your current location. Set a custom radius and see everything within that circle on the map and in the list simultaneously.

Filter by services offered, brands used, parts carried, business amenities (loaner cars, financing, online scheduler), event type, modality, and more. No other automotive directory goes this granular.

Filter by exact chassis and year generation — not just 'BMW' but 'E46 (2001–2005 3 Series).' Over 820 year-range entries across 36 makes and ~195 models ensure you find a shop that has actually worked on your specific generation.

Save any search — filters, location, radius, and vehicle — and return to it instantly. Your searches are remembered across devices.

The filter panel supports expand-all and collapse-all shortcuts so power users can review or clear every active filter in one click.

On desktop, a scrollable listing grid sits alongside a sticky full-screen map. Scroll through results and the nearest card highlights its pin automatically — no click required.

On mobile, the map fills the screen. A bottom sheet snaps to three positions (peek, half, full) to reveal the listing grid without losing map context.

Map pins load from PostGIS for the exact viewport you're looking at — not a pre-cached tile. Pan and zoom to any area and pins populate automatically within the current bounds.

As you scroll the listing grid, the map pin for the topmost visible card pulses orange. Hover any card on desktop to highlight its pin. Tap a pin to open the card.

Admins can switch the global map style from Mapbox's dark theme, satellite, streets, or any custom Studio style — applied site-wide with no redeploy.

Every listing detail page includes a static Mapbox tile centered on the business address. Clicking it opens Google Maps directly for turn-by-turn directions.

Upload a 16:7 cover image, a circular business logo, and up to 10 gallery photos. All images are stored in Supabase Storage and served at the edge.

A dedicated widget on every FIX/SHOP listing shows which vehicle makes, models, and year generations the business specializes in — organized by make tabs with clickable year-range pills.

Verified users leave star ratings and written reviews. Ratings aggregate automatically (database trigger) and surface in search ranking. Businesses cannot pay to remove honest reviews.

Day-by-day hours with open/closed labels. Clearly displayed on every profile so users know before they drive.

Every profile shows direct phone and website links. The built-in contact form routes inquiries straight to the business — no referral fee, no lead charge, no notification delay.

Link to any online booking tool — or use AutoGnome's built-in scheduling integration. Customers book directly on your listing without leaving the platform.

FIX listings tag services, brands used, and business amenities. SHOP listings tag parts sold, brands carried, and financing availability. ATTEND listings include event type, spectator info, and entry fee. LEARN listings tag modality.

Select a garage vehicle and the entire directory filters to businesses that specialize in that exact make, model, and year range. Every result is relevant to your car — not just a broad category.

AutoGnome fetches factory specs and a service schedule for your vehicle — oil type, tire size, horsepower, torque, and maintenance intervals — so you always know what your car needs.

Log every modification, part swap, and service event over time. The Build Book is a running record of your vehicle's history — shareable with buyers, mechanics, or the community.

Make your garage or individual vehicle profiles public. Share a link with anyone — buyers, mechanics, or the community — with a unique share token that doesn't require an account to view.

All claimed coupons live in your account under My Coupons. Each has a unique QR code page reachable from any device — no printing required.

Powered by GPT-4o-mini. Converts free-text queries into structured Algolia filters — extracting location, vehicle type, category, services, and parts from a single sentence. Falls back to plain search if parsing fails.

Type a business name and website URL. AutoGnome's AI reads the site and auto-fills your listing description, services, hours, phone, and tags. What used to take 20 minutes takes 20 seconds.

Every vehicle added to the Garage gets an AI-generated photorealistic render based on exact make, model, year, and color. Generated asynchronously — no waiting on the form.

AutoGnome generates factory specs (horsepower, torque, displacement, fuel type, tire size) and a maintenance schedule for every garage vehicle — no manual lookup needed.

Your position in search results is determined by relevance to the user's query — vehicle match, location proximity, service match, verified status, and community rating. Ad spend is not a factor. Ever.

Your dashboard shows profile views, website click-throughs, and direction requests — broken down by day and rolling 30-day window. Know when traffic spikes and which listings perform best.

Create percentage-off, fixed-amount, or free-service coupons with expiry dates, redemption limits, and per-user limits. Users claim via QR code. Full redemption tracking in your dashboard.

The built-in contact form captures the user's name, email, phone, and message and routes it directly to you. Reply-to is set to the customer so your response goes straight back to them.

Magic Fill auto-populates your listing from your existing website in seconds. Vehicle taxonomy, services, hours, and contact info are pre-filled — you review and submit.

AutoGnome may have already created a placeholder listing for your business. Claim it in minutes — no need to start from scratch. Admin review ensures only the real owner can claim.

Manage your own FIX or SHOP listing for $20/month (or $200/year). AutoGnome Pro adds the full shop management platform — job board, estimates, invoices, and more — for $200/month.

Coming soon — job board, estimates, digital inspections, invoices with online payment, appointment booking, and a customer portal. All bundled with your FIX listing.

AutoGnome's business model is flat-rate subscriptions. There are no banner ads, no sponsored listings, no competitor ads on your profile, and no retargeting scripts. The UX is clean because the incentives are clean.

AutoGnome is a corporate-free zone. National franchises and private equity roll-ups are not welcome. Every listing is an independent business, local organizer, or individual specialist.

PostGIS powers proximity queries, viewport-bound map pins, and nearby-listing ranking. Algolia geo-ranking layers on top for keyword + location hybrid queries. Both update in real time.

AutoGnome runs on Vercel's edge network with ISR caching for static pages and real-time data where freshness matters. No tracking bloat — pages load fast everywhere.

No third-party advertising networks. No user profiling for resale. AutoGnome collects only what's needed to deliver the service and complies with CCPA and GDPR.

AutoGnome publishes how rankings work (relevance, proximity, verification, rating). There are no secret paid tiers in organic search. What you see in results is what the algorithm decided — not what someone paid for.
