AutoLeap information comes from its public website and review sites, consulted on November 7, 2026: autoleap.com/pricing, Capterra. Prices and features change: check with AutoLeap. AutoLeap is a trademark of its owner; Karzen is not affiliated with it.
Parts catalogues, labour guides, digital inspection and two-way texting are already part of its plans.
If your shop wants everything in a browser and has a reliable connection, a cloud platform is a natural fit.
One published price per shop, with no setup fee and no paid add-ons to reach the features you need.
Every screen, invoice and estimate in French or English, with GST and QST already set up.
Karzen runs on your shop’s network, so the counter keeps going during an outage.
