Latest Integration: Now available inside Xpose Management • “Powered by Cortex”

From symptoms to solutions -
with shop-ready confidence.

Cortex is a modern diagnostics and repair intelligence system built to guide technicians through tests, likely causes, verified fixes, and service estimates - fast, consistent, and easy to trust. No hype. Just results.

Built to scale: cross-referenced procedures, continuously updated knowledge, and OEM-grade structure.
Cortex • Live Guidance
Case: 2017 Ford F-150 • P0302 • Rough idle
Symptoms: misfire at idle, fuel trim +12%, slight shake
Next best tests:
1) Swap coil cyl #2 → verify misfire follows
2) Inspect plug gap + condition (oil/fuel fouling)
3) Relative compression + injector balance
Most likely causes: coil/plug, injector, compression

Built by Techs - For Techs.

Cortex organizes diagnostics the way techs actually work: symptoms → tests → causes → repairs → verification. Structured, repeatable, and easy to audit.

DX

Guided Diagnostics

Turn vague symptoms into a clear, test-driven path. Cortex recommends the next best checks, reduces dead ends, and helps your whole shop diagnose the same way.

RP

Repair Paths

Step-by-step repair flows with verification. Less “hope it works,” more “confirm it’s fixed.” Perfect for training, consistency, and comebacks.

SV

Service Intelligence

Maintenance recommendations with shop-friendly language and line items. Designed to support trust, upsell ethically, and keep customers coming back.

How Cortex works

Cortex is designed to cross-reference a growing library of trusted procedures, patterns, and structured repair knowledge. It prioritizes consistency, traceability, and shop-ready outputs.

01

Ingest + structure

Procedures and repair knowledge are organized into structured steps, checks, and outcomes — so the result is actionable, not just “advice.”

02

Cross-reference

Cortex compares symptoms, codes, and vehicle context to highlight the most likely causes and the fastest tests to confirm or eliminate them.

03

Output shop-ready

Results are formatted for estimates and RO workflows: labor guidance, parts suggestions, checklists, and verification steps — built to plug into your process.

Why shops choose Cortex

Cortex doesn’t replace your technicians - it makes them faster, more consistent, and more confident. That’s how you win: fewer comebacks, better estimates, and a smoother customer experience.

Faster diagnostic flow

Get to confirmable tests quicker. Reduce guesswork and stop bouncing between random sources.

More consistent results

Standardize how your shop diagnoses and repairs, so quality doesn’t depend on who’s on shift.

$

Better estimates

Structured outputs help you build clearer labor + parts line items and explain work to customers.

Professional by design

Cortex is built to feel like a true diagnostics platform: structured workflows, repeatable steps, and outputs you can stand behind.

KB

Continuously updated knowledge

New procedures and patterns are added over time — keeping the system fresh and improving coverage.

QA

Traceable outputs

Designed for clarity and accountability: tests, reasons, likely causes, and verification.
