Rain Technology has launched Ortho, a voice assistant purpose-built for the auto repair market. Using Motor’s OEM database and housed inside a ruggedized tablet, Ortho offers a hands-free data lookup, delivering answers in seconds.
By saying “Hey Ortho” and asking a question, users get access to hundreds of specs, fluid details, diagrams and maintenance intervals, all specific to the vehicle being worked on, and without having to leave the bay.
Vehicles can be loaded using select shop management system integrations, scanning a VIN or manually selecting year, make and model.
In recent months, Ortho has been piloted in more than a dozen shops across the United States and Canada.
Ortho includes a free trial, offers flexible pricing models for individuals and shops, and comes with a voice-optimized tablet.
