Automotive RepairDiagnostics & Troubleshooting3MediumOwner$ implied
Needs a single software-based diagnostic tool that works on a laptop with an OBD2 adapter, instead of buying multiple expensive proprietary tablets for different vehicle makes.
Existing solutions are either brand-specific (VCDS only for VW/Audi) or require buying separate expensive tablets for each diagnostic system (Launch, Delphi), forcing mechanics to invest in multiple devices.
