ClutchScope

ClutchScope is a mobile diagnostic tool that uses the phone's microphone and accelerometer to analyze clutch engagement sounds and vibrations, helping DIY mechanics and technicians differentiate between transmission gear binding, input shaft issues, or clutch disc problems. It overlays guided sequential tests on a virtual manual transmission diagram, logs intermittent symptoms for later review, and provides component compatibility checks for cable-actuated systems.

Key Features
  • Audio vibration analysis for clutch/transmission binding
  • Sequential guided diagnostic tests with on-screen diagrams
  • Intermittent symptom logging with time-stamped recordings
  • Component compatibility check for cable-actuated systems
Target Users: DIY car owners and technicians working on older manual transmission vehicles with cable-actuated clutches
Revenue Model: Freemium (basic diagnostics free; advanced logging & compatibility check via $4.99/month subscription)
