A CRM for tint, wrap and PPF shops that follows up on the jobs customers are still deciding on.
Car owners usually ask several shops for a quote, especially for wraps and PPF. Alcreo gets your quote back quickly, follows up on bigger jobs while customers compare, sends wrap proofs for approval and books installs with a deposit so the bay is protected.
Customers compare shops. A clear, timely quote and a follow-up go a long way.
Tint, wrap and PPF customers often research for weeks. These are the gaps that cost jobs:
Quotes that take a day
Someone DMs three shops for a PPF quote. A clear reply with a price range often gets the next conversation.
Big quotes without follow-up
A $4,000 wrap quote goes out and nobody checks in while the customer thinks it over.
Requests across several apps
Quote requests come through Instagram, Facebook, text and your website, and some get missed.
No-shows on full-day installs
An install that doesn't show up costs a whole bay for the day.
Commercial wraps without a process
Business wraps need proofs, approvals and deposits tracked in one place.
Social posts, few Google reviews
Customers post their car online but rarely leave a Google review unless asked.
Quotes, approvals and installs in one place
Design files and cutting software stay where they are. These tools handle the customer side.
A website that shows your work
Pages for window tint, color change wraps, commercial wraps, PPF and ceramic coating, with galleries and quote forms.
Quick quote replies
Quote requests get a fast reply with starting prices and next steps.
One inbox for DMs and texts
Instagram, Facebook, text, email and web chat messages land in one inbox.
Quotes by stage and value
See each quote by stage and dollar value, from request to booked to installed.
Wrap and PPF follow-up
Bigger quotes get a polite follow-up that stops when the customer books or replies.
Installs booked with deposits
Customers book install dates online and pay a deposit to hold the bay.
Proofs and approvals
Send commercial wrap proofs and agreements for approval and e-signature.
Aftercare and check-ins
Send care instructions after tint and film installs, and a check-in a few weeks later.
Review requests
After pickup, customers get a review request with a link to your Google profile.
From a new-car DM to a protected finish
Someone takes delivery of a new car and wants paint protection before a road trip. Here's how it could go.
Quotes that don't book get a seasonal check-in.
This is an illustration of how the system can work, not a specific customer's results.

Fewer DMs to dig through, and deposits tracked in one place
Many tint and wrap shops run on Instagram DMs, a booking app, a payment app and notes. Quotes slip, and follow-up depends on memory.
Alcreo keeps quote requests, DMs, follow-up, booking, deposits, proofs, payments and reviews together, so the whole shop can see them.
During setup we import your past customers so review requests and seasonal offers can start right away.
Is Alcreo a good fit for your shop?
It suits independent tint, wrap and PPF shops.
A good fit if
- Quote requests are spread across DMs and texts
- Wrap and PPF quotes don't get followed up
- Install no-shows cost you bay time
- Commercial wrap approvals are disorganized
Probably not the right tool if
- You need design, plotting or pattern software
- You're a franchise required to use corporate systems
- You sell film wholesale
Follow-up with permission
Quote follow-up works when customers asked for it.
Consent on every form
Forms include clear, unchecked texting consent with links to your privacy policy and terms.
Opt-outs honored automatically
STOP replies and email unsubscribes are honored right away.
Registered business texting
We help you register your number for A2P 10DLC, which mobile carriers require for business texting from local numbers.
Policies that stay current
Growth includes an auto-updating privacy policy, terms and cookie consent for your website. On Launch it's a $20/month add-on.
This is general information, not legal advice. Talk to your own advisor about the rules that apply to your business and your state.
What your tint and wrap shop website could look like
A bold site with a strong gallery and a quote form that takes a minute.
Service and city pages help you show up for searches like "window tint near me" and "PPF installer in [your city]." Gallery photos, clear packages and reviews help enthusiasts choose you.
What happens after you sign up
You don't have to learn the software on your own. Here's what the first week looks like.
One onboarding call
We learn how your tint and wrap shop works today, which tools you're keeping and what to fix first.
Your website and phone number
We build your website or connect your current one. Keep your number by forwarding or porting it, or get a new local number.
Your contacts and starter setup
We import your contacts, load the standard pipeline and turn on the starter automations that fit. You can rename stages and edit messages any time.
Live in under a week, with support after
Most accounts are running in under a week, though texting registration depends on the carriers. After launch, support helps when you want to change something.

AI for the routine work, with your team in charge
For a tint or wrap shop, AI can answer the questions that come in every day, like tint percentages, film brands and how long an install takes, and draft follow-ups that explain your work without sounding pushy.
You decide what AI handles. Anything that needs judgment, or a personal touch, stays with your team.
Describe a workflow in plain English
Type something like "when a wrap or PPF quote is sent, text a check-in on day 2, email an FAQ on day 4 and create a call task on day 7" and the AI builder drafts the automation. You review it, adjust the timing or wording, and turn it on.
An assistant for routine questions
AI agents can answer common questions, collect details and book appointments by chat or text, in many languages. You decide what they say and when a person takes over.
Help drafting messages
Draft reminders and replies faster, then edit them to sound like your business.
Help when you want to change something
We show you the AI tools during onboarding, and support can help you adjust an automation later instead of starting over.
