App Concept

VibeSolve Diagnostic

VibeSolve Diagnostic is a mobile app that uses the phone's accelerometer to measure and analyze vehicle vibrations. It guides the user through a structured diagnostic process, identifying the root cause (e.g., wheel imbalance, tire non-uniformity, driveline issue) and provides actionable repair recommendations. Unlike generic balancing, it offers a step-by-step workflow tailored to the vehicle's symptoms.

Key Features

On-phone vibration analysis using accelerometer
Structured diagnostic workflow with possible causes
Visual presentation of vibration severity vs. speed
Log and compare test runs
Recommend specific repairs (e.g., road force balance, tire rotations)

Target Users: Car DIY enthusiasts and small automotive repair shops without access to advanced balancing machines

Revenue Model: $4.99 per diagnostic session or $9.99/month subscription for unlimited use
