About

Shaped by someone who does this for a living

Most business software is built for every trade at once. Czar was built alongside Nick Vacco, around how an auto detailing business actually runs.

Nick founded Detail King in 1999 and today trains detailers at The Detail Czar. His students leave the classroom to run their own businesses, some solo and some with a crew. Czar was shaped for them: the handful of things a working detailer actually needs, and none of the enterprise CRM weight.

Week-one simple. Built for the truck, not the office.

  • Your customer list is a paper book riding in the truck.
  • The rest is scattered through your phone notes and old texts.
  • For the ones who don't call back, there's no system. You just hope.

Features

Everything about the job, nothing extra

Czar does four things well instead of forty things badly.

  • 01/ 04

    One card per customer

    Every vehicle, every service, every price you've charged — in one place. Walk up to any car already knowing what you did last time.

  • 02/ 04

    Rebooking that remembers for you

    Every finished job starts a clock. When it runs out, that customer lands on your rebook list, so regulars stay regulars instead of falling off the calendar.

  • 03/ 04

    A schedule built for driveways

    Your day laid out job by job, with addresses and notes, on a screen you can read in direct sun with wet hands.

  • 04/ 04

    Overdue list that fills slow weeks

    It keeps track of who's due and hands you the list. One text each, and quiet Tuesdays start filling up.

How it works

Three steps, then it's working for you

Not a setup project. Do each of these once and you've used the whole system.

  1. 01

    Add your first customer

    Name, number, what they drive.

  2. 02

    Send your first quote

    The service and the price you already charge, texted from your phone.

  3. 03

    Set when they're due back

    Your usual window, or 3, 6 or 12 months for a coating. Czar puts them on your rebook list when it's time.

FAQ

Straight answers

When does Czar launch?

Soon, but we won't guess at a date. The core of Czar is built. What's left includes carrier registration for business texting, which every platform that texts your customers has to clear. Join the waitlist and you'll hear the day Czar opens.

What does joining the waitlist cost me?

Nothing. It's your email address: no card, no account, no commitment. We'll email you when Czar opens, and only about Czar. You decide then.

Do I need a computer?

No. Czar is built to run from your phone, because that's what's in your pocket at the job. A laptop works too, but it's never required.

I'm not a tech person. Will I be able to use it?

If you can send a text, you can run this. Add a customer and book a job, and you've used the whole system. Nothing to install, no training to sit through.

Can I bring my existing customer list?

Yes. Upload a spreadsheet and Czar matches the columns, shows you a preview, and skips anyone already in there. A paper book or phone contacts go in by hand, once.

How does texting my customers work?

Two ways. On both plans, Czar writes the text and you send it from your own phone, so replies come straight back to you. On Pro, Czar can also send texts for you automatically, under your business's name and only to customers who've agreed to them. Any customer can stop those anytime by replying STOP. What customers agree to, and how opting in and out works, is in our SMS Terms.

What if it isn't for me?

Once you're on a plan, tell us within 30 days of your first payment and we'll refund it in full. That's a month of real jobs to decide whether Czar earns its place.

What happens to my customers if I cancel?

They're yours. Export your full customer list and history anytime, whether you stay or go.

Keep your regulars coming back.

Czar is almost ready. Join the waitlist and we'll email you the day it opens.
