The process

Start with the thing, not the terminology.

Garage Gremlin turns the stuff scattered around your bench into a focused record you can come back to.

01

Photograph the unknown.

Show the object from two to four useful angles. No staged inventory shots, no catalog vocabulary required.

Add the story.

Make, model, year, location, and the clues only you can see in the garage.

Keep it moving.

Track the request, preserve the context, and make the next step obvious.

The bigger fix

Old parts. New life. Your build.

When a component is discontinued, a dead end is still useful information. Garage Gremlin makes space for the demand behind those searches—so the right repair or reproduction can become easier to spot.

01

Identify

Give the mystery part a clear request and a useful trail of context.

02

Find parts

Keep research and the details of your machine in the same place.

03

Reproduce

Make unobtainable parts visible as shared demand instead of isolated frustration.

Pick your pace

Start with the part in front of you.
