🌟 Why We Exist

Chief Mechanic is not here to attack dealers.
Most dealers are hardworking, honest people—but they simply cannot know the full mechanical history of dozens of cars on their lot.
Problems are often unintentional, born from a system where information is fragmented and inspections are too costly.

Our mission is to fix that system.

We combine human effort, AI precision, and expert experience to create a PPI service that is affordable, accurate, and accessible to everyone—especially buyers searching for reliable cars within a limited budget.

Chief Mechanic was built in Rochester, shaped by local students, mechanics, and real-world challenges in our community.
And our goal is simple:

No one should ever have to buy a used car blindly again.
