Built for independent garages and auto repair shops.From paper job cards and spreadsheets to one system.
Still juggling paper job cards, spreadsheets and old software?
Sound familiar?
The old way
- ✕A customer asks "what did you do last time?" and you are digging through files.
- ✕A technician fitted a part but forgot to write it down — and the margin disappears at month end.
- ✕Nobody knows exactly what came in or went out of the till; cashing up takes hours.
- ✕Your old software needs an ancient PC, receipts are on paper and it never works on a phone.
- ✕Without service reminders, customers drift to another garage.
With Baktam
- Type the plate — the vehicle's full history is on screen in a second.
- Technicians add parts from a tablet; prices and tax are calculated automatically.
- A live cash book, and the end-of-day report in one click.
- Phone, tablet or computer — the same data everywhere.
- Service reminders by date, with a target mileage, bring customers back.

Owners see one thing, technicians another. So does Baktam.
4 roles, 4 views. We handle the permissions; you stay in control.
Owner
Revenue, profit, receivables and branch comparison. The pulse of the business at a glance.
Manager
Job assignment, calendar, staff and stock control. The operations command center.
Technician
Today's jobs, parts used, time spent — a few taps on a tablet. No prices or costs.
Cashier
Quick sale (POS), payments, end of day. No complicated menus.
Under the car, in the office or at home — Baktam goes with you.
The same data on phone, tablet and computer.
Phone
On the move — plate lookup, quick messages to customers.
Tablet
The technician's helper — add parts to work orders, upload photos.
Desktop
For managers and owners — reports, cash book, wide tables.
Bonus: Want to run it on your own server? Baktam comes with a self-hosted (Docker) edition. Your data, on your machine.

Frequently asked questions
Can I bring my data over from my current software?⌄
Yes. Send us an Excel export or a backup of your old system and we will import your customers, vehicles and stock. It is free during your first week.
What happens if the internet goes down?⌄
The cloud version needs an internet connection — there is no offline mode. A phone's mobile data works as a backup connection. If you need to work independently of the internet, the Enterprise plan lets you run Baktam on your own server, on your local network.
Who owns my data, and where is it stored?⌄
Your data is yours. The cloud version is hosted on servers in Germany (EU) with automatic daily backups, and you can export your records to Excel from the reports pages. On the Enterprise plan you can run Baktam on your own server.
Does it work with my country's currency, VAT and time zone?⌄
Yes. When you sign up you choose your country — for example the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada, Australia or New Zealand, with more in Europe and Türkiye — and Baktam sets your currency, tax rates, phone code, mileage unit (km or miles) and time zone. Scheduled reminders go out in your local time.
Can I issue VAT invoices?⌄
Baktam prints invoices in your country's format: a bilingual English/Arabic Tax Invoice with your TRN in the UAE, a VAT invoice with your VAT registration number in the UK, a Tax invoice with your ABN or GST number in Australia and New Zealand, an invoice with your GST/HST number in Canada or your VAT number in Ireland, and invoices showing sales tax in the US. In Saudi Arabia, Baktam connects to ZATCA's Fatoora platform for Phase 2 e-invoicing: you onboard your own e-invoicing unit with an OTP from the Fatoora portal, and each sale you issue is signed, reported to or cleared by ZATCA and printed with the ZATCA QR code (Pro and Enterprise plans).
Will it run on my old computer?⌄
Yes. Baktam runs in the browser: any computer with an up-to-date Chrome, Edge or Firefox will do, with nothing to install.
Who trains my staff?⌄
A free 30-minute one-to-one online onboarding session is included when you start. The interface is available in 12 languages — English, Arabic (with an RTL layout), French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish and Turkish — and each user can pick their own language.
What if I cancel?⌄
There is no lock-in. Cancel in any month, keep using Baktam until the end of your paid period and download your data.
