Built by a technician who's actually turned wrenches for 20 years, ForgePilot is the AI diagnostic co-pilot you wish you had at the bay. Pull a code. Scan a VIN. Ask Forgy what's likely. Get a real answer — grounded in OEM procedures, your shop's history, and the kind of diagnostic logic that takes a decade to learn. WHAT YOU GET - Forgy — an AI co-pilot trained for automotive diagnostics. Ask it about any DTC, any vehicle, any symptom. Get a focused diagnostic path, not a wall of generic text. - MOTOR-licensed procedures, torque specs, and DTC flowcharts — straight from the source, viewed in-app, never bounced to a browser. - Live OBD2 streaming via Bluetooth — pair your existing scanner (OBDLink MX+, Autel, Launch, others) and stream PIDs, freeze frame data, and live sensor readings in real time. - VIN scanner with camera + barcode + AI fallback — get the right vehicle profile in seconds. - Multi-format scanner screenshot support — snap a photo of any scan tool's screen, paste it into Forgy chat, get an analysis. - Vehicle history that persists — every car your shop touches builds a record. Pull it up next time. BUILT FOR SHOPS, NOT CONSUMERS ForgePilot isn't an OBD2 toy or a parts-buying app. It's a professional diagnostic tool for working technicians at independent shops. If you've ever wished your scanner had a brain — this is it. YOUR DATA IS YOURS We never sell your shop data. We never sell your customer info. We never train AI on your individual repair orders without permission. Read the full privacy policy at crimsonforge.pro/privacy — it's written in plain English. QUESTIONS?
