Sourcing

Built for restoration shops.
Not tire shops.

Every feature was designed around how specialty restoration shops actually operate — long-cycle projects, complex parts sourcing, high-value customers who want transparency.

🏎
Project Management
Full lifecycle from intake to delivery. Status tracking, progress bars, photos, customer notes, and complete restoration history per car.
Core
🔩
Parts & Inventory
Track every part with PIT tracking IDs, UPC barcode scanning, supplier info, ordered/received status, and one-click purchase orders.
Core
Hours & Billing
Clock in by project and task. Standard, Support, and Overhead work types. Monthly billing reports with billable vs. total hours clearly separated.
Core
📋
Canned Services
Pre-build your most common jobs once. Engine rebuild, paint prep, transmission overhaul — add to any estimate in one tap. No more typing for an hour to write a quote.
Estimates
🌐
Customer Portal
Every customer gets their own login. They see their car's live status, shop updates, photos, and approved estimates. No more "where's my car?" calls.
Customer Facing
💬
Real-Time Messaging
Customers message the shop directly from their portal. Internal team chat for staff. File and photo attachments. Instant notifications when customers write in.
Communication
📦
Shop Stock & Consumables
Track oils, fluids, fasteners, welding wire, and all consumables. Log usage per project, auto-deduct from stock, and get low-stock alerts before you run out.
Inventory
👥
Team Management
Role-based access for managers and techs. Daily attendance punch. My Day view for techs shows their assigned tasks and shop floor status — no dollar amounts visible.
Team
🔍
Vehicle Intake Forms
Structured intake for every car — VIN, mileage, customer concern in their own words, pre-existing damage, preserve/avoid notes, and customer authorization checkbox.
Intake

Up and running in a day

01
We Onboard You
We set up your shop, configure team accounts, pre-load your canned services, and walk through the system with your manager. One call.
02
Add Your Projects
Enter active cars with owner info and current status. We help import from spreadsheets during onboarding so nothing gets missed.
03
Team Clocks In
Techs clock in on the shop tablet, log hours to projects, and see their assigned tasks. Managers see everything live on the dashboard.
04
Customers Self-Serve
Invite each customer to their portal. They check their car's progress and message the shop directly — without calling you at 7pm.

Most shop management software was built for a tire shop doing oil changes. Blackbird MD was built in a real Porsche restoration shop, for shops that do serious work.
Blackbird MD — Built in the Bay, Not a Boardroom

Specialty shops doing
serious work

🏆
Porsche Restoration
Built on real Porsche workflow. 911s, 356s, 944s, 928s — the long-cycle, high-value jobs that need actual project management.
🔥
Classic American Muscle
Camaros, Mustangs, Corvettes. Multi-month restorations with complex parts sourcing, body work, paint, and demanding customers.
🏁
European Specialists
Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes, Alfa Romeo. Rare parts, long lead times, and customers who expect constant transparency on their investment.
Custom Build Shops
Restomod, rotisserie builds, show cars. Any shop where the work takes months, costs six figures, and demands professional documentation.

Simple, honest pricing

Every plan includes onboarding support and monthly managed service hours — because software without help isn't a solution.
