Frequently asked questions

ChatGPT and similar AI tools are trained on large amounts of general internet text and are excellent at writing, explaining, and reasoning across many topics. However, they are not trained on verified automotive repair data, nor are they designed to understand how real workshop diagnostics and repairs are performed.

WrenchLane, on the other hand, is:

• Trained on automotive and repair data
  Designed to understand fault codes (DTCs), vehicle systems, common failure patterns, and real-world repair cases.
• Built for workshop use
  Understands how multiple fault codes, symptoms, causes, and corrective actions relate to each other — the way an experienced technician reasons.
• Data-driven and structured
  Provides consistent, relevant insights based on vehicle logic, not generic guesses or text-based assumptions.
• Integrated into real workflows
  Designed to support diagnostics, troubleshooting, and decision-making inside the workshop — not as a standalone chat tool.

In short:
ChatGPT can talk about cars. WrenchLane is built to help fix them.
