APAI is a cloud-based management platform for automotive glass shops, mobile installers, and employee teams. It brings together VIN-driven NAGS part matching, AI-assisted quoting, job scheduling, technician assignment, digital work orders, invoicing, payment tracking, insurance claims, customer intake, and analytics. Its browser-based access is intended for office and field users, while optional tint-shop workflows extend the platform beyond core auto-glass operations. For teams that need one system for quoting and day-to-day job administration, APAI is a focused fit.

Pricing is organized around Professional and Enterprise plans. Professional costs $99 per user per month with monthly billing and includes unlimited vehicle search, AI-assisted quoting, NAGS data and VIN decoding, ADAS pricing and calibration integration, job dashboards, invoices, and live pricing integration. The published plans also show a 30-day trial. Enterprise adds a dedicated account manager, SSO and advanced security, plus custom contracts and SLAs. That structure makes Professional the clearer starting point for smaller teams, while Enterprise is aimed at organizations needing account management and more formal commercial or security requirements.

APAI’s ecosystem fit centers on automotive-glass data and supplier pricing rather than a broad general-purpose business stack. Integrations include the NHTSA VPIC API, NAGS data, and live supplier pricing. The workflow can extend from quote requests and AI chat through scheduling, technician dispatch, photos, signatures, attachments, notes, invoices, and payment tracking. Teams wanting a dedicated mobile application should look elsewhere, since current access is browser-based. Choose APAI for auto-glass estimating and operations in one web platform; consider an alternative if native mobile software is essential.
