Auto detailing websites for Jobber that stop pricing leaks

What's broken on most auto detailing websites
Most auto-detailing sites still make the owner price from a vague contact message. We end up texting back for make, model, condition, and service type before we can even decide whether this is a maintenance wash, a high-ticket correction job, or a low-fit tire kicker. That slows follow-up while the buyer keeps messaging the next detailer who replied first.
Cost of delay
A weak first reply can cost the booked detail, the higher-ticket coating job, and the recurring maintenance customer that should have followed.

What the connected website changes
What a Jobber-connected auto detailing website does instead
The website separates standard details, ceramic coating interest, and high-friction cleanup work before the handoff starts. On the native path, Jobber receives a Request through the documented request or booking experience. On the custom path, the site can use Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API so the Client, Property, and Request record carry cleaner vehicle and route context before the office replies.
Native path
Use Jobber's native request path when the shop mainly needs a faster lead handoff into the office workflow.
API or managed intake
Use the GraphQL path when the website needs vehicle-specific intake, photo context, or mobile-route screening before the request reaches Jobber.
Connection patterns
How the connection works
Native Jobber Request intake
The website sends the buyer through Jobber's native request or booking flow so the office sees a Request right away. This fits when the business can do the rest of qualification inside Jobber.
When to use
Choose this when the detailer wants the fastest website-to-office handoff without a deeper custom funnel.
Custom auto detailing intake + Jobber GraphQL
The website captures vehicle make, model, condition, requested package, service address, and photos before a backend uses Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API. That keeps the office from pricing off a blind contact form.
When to use
Choose this when the website needs to separate standard details, coating consults, and low-fit jobs before the callback.

We usually find 3 Jobber handoff leaks on auto detailing sites.
- We keep seeing standard details and ceramic-coating consults dumped into the same callback path.
- We keep seeing the form skip vehicle condition, photo proof, and mobile-route detail until after the lead lands.
