RotorGauge

RotorGauge is a mobile app (iOS/Android) that helps DIY car owners and small independent shops quickly assess brake and suspension wear using guided photo capture and simple measurement prompts. The app walks users through taking consistent images of rotors, pads (where visible), calipers, struts, and bushings, then flags obvious red flags (deep rotor scoring, uneven pad wear patterns, leaking struts, torn boots) and recommends next steps: “safe to monitor,” “needs inspection soon,” or “do not drive.” It also stores a timeline of photos, mileage, and service history so users can prove deterioration over time and avoid unnecessary upsells. This is not a magic scanner: it’s a structured checklist plus computer-vision assistance to reduce missed issues and improve decision-making. Monetization: freemium for owners, paid “shop mode” for documentation and customer reports.
