Everything you need
Whether you're a hardcore weekend warrior DIYer or just want to keep your car records in one place, Manila makes it effortless.
Keep all your maintenance logs, receipts, and documents in one searchable digital folder. No more lost paperwork.
Set date-based or mileage-based reminders on any note. Manila emails you when it's time — so you never miss an oil change or inspection again.
Find any record, receipt, or note instantly. Filter by date, category, or keyword across your entire vehicle history.
Log every oil change, tune-up, and repair with cost and mileage. Know exactly what's been done and what it cost.
Your vehicle data is stored securely. Your car's story stays in your hands — always accessible, never shared without your say-so.
Generate a shareable link for your vehicle. Perfect for car shows, sales, forum threads, or handing off to your mechanic.
How it works
Manila takes the chaos out of car ownership. No more shoeboxes full of receipts or foggy memories about that last oil change.
Enter your car's details — year, make, model, and VIN. Create a project in under a minute. Works for any vehicle, any era.
Add to-dos for pending work. When a job is done, convert it to a permanent note with cost, mileage, date, and tags. One direction only — no revisionism.
Instantly search your entire vehicle history. Share a public link to your car's file with your mechanic, a buyer, or post it in a forum.

From real users
"I like data that's easily viewable and searchable. This scratches that itch. Plus, it's a pretty cool design and better than my previous method of logging."
"Keeping track of expenses and ongoing projects on multiple vehicles. It stops me from overcommitting to too many projects at once."
"Keeps me honest about how much my project car costs. Makes me feel more confident if I need to sell it in the future."
