Built by Shop Owners, for Shop Owners
We're not just a software company — we're auto repair industry veterans who got tired of bad tools and decided to build better ones.
Our Story
UnivSoftware was founded by a team of seasoned auto repair industry consultants who had spent decades helping shop owners improve their operations. After evaluating every shop management tool on the market, they came to a simple conclusion: nothing was good enough.
Existing software was either outdated, overpriced, or built by tech companies that didn't understand the daily realities of running a shop. So they built Auto Repair Manager (ARM) from the ground up — combining deep automotive knowledge with modern cloud technology.
Today, ARM powers over 5,000 auto repair shops, tire centers, and quick lube operations across the country. And we still operate with the same principle: build what shop owners actually need, not what looks good in a pitch deck.
