Built for shops and mobile operators who need speed, clarity, and control, Strata carries the full customer and job lifecycle in one place, from first inquiry to final payment.

Whether you run a tint shop, detail business, wrap studio, mechanic shop, tire shop, glass shop, or a fully mobile operation working out of a van, Strata helps you move faster, stay organized, and bring money back. Storefront or mobile, one system runs the whole business.
