No credit card required · migrate from TintPro in days, not weeks
Why shops switch
Honest. We don't trash TintPro— they've earned their reputation. These are the friction points that push shops to look for an alternative.
Built around tint and flat glass — shops adding ceramic coating or detail outgrow TintPro's single-vertical focus.
Automation runs through Zapier connections instead of built-in AI — no native Smart Pricing, photo-to-quote, or SMS dispatcher.
No franchise-style HQ tooling — no multi-location rollup dashboard, royalty automation, or centralized catalog push.
Multi-shop pricing is a sales-contract conversation, not a published rate.
Signing up isn't the fully card-free flow SalesThumb offers.
Where SalesThumb wins
Multi-vertical: tint + PPF + ceramic coating + detail in one — TintPro centers on tint + flat glass.
First-party AI workflows (Smart Pricing, photo-to-quote, SMS dispatcher) — TintPro relies on Zapier glue.
Real franchise-style HQ tier with royalty automation built in.
Free to create an account, no credit card.
Modern UI built for tablet-first install bays.
Where TintProstill wins (we'd be lying to deny it)
If those are deal-breakers for you, stay with TintPro. If you can live with them, the rest of this page tells you why SalesThumb is worth the switch.
Migration
Most TintPro shops are fully on SalesThumb within 10-14 days of starting the trial.
1. Export your TintPro data
Pull your customer, vehicle, and job history out of TintPro before you start building in SalesThumb. If you've built Zapier workflows on top of TintPro, note which ones matter most; you'll rebuild or reconnect them through SalesThumb's own Zapier integration.
2. Rebuild your catalog for multi-vertical
TintPro's catalog and its good/better/best quote tiers both center on tint and flat glass. If you're a straight tint or flat-glass shop, that tiered-quote structure maps over cleanly. If you also run ceramic coating or detail out of the same shop, this is where you build out the verticals TintPro doesn't cover.
3. Reconnect payments, Zapier, and go live
TintPro processes payments through 100 Group; SalesThumb Connect runs on pass-through processing rates instead, so you'll set up your own payout account. Reconnect any Zapier automations through SalesThumb's own Zapier integration and webhooks, run both systems in parallel for a stretch, then cut over.
FAQ
TintPro does right by tint and flat-glass shops that are happy running their automation through Zapier. The friction shows up in two places: no native AI in the workflow (TintPro leans on Zapier glue instead of built-in Smart Pricing, photo-to-quote, or an SMS dispatcher), and no franchise-style HQ dashboard for shops opening a second or third location. SalesThumb adds both, plus native support for ceramic coating and detail alongside tint — TintPro centers on tint and flat glass.
TintPro is $199/mo flat — the same price as SalesThumb's Starter tier (5 seats included). SalesThumb's actual entry point is lower, at $99/mo (Basic). The difference shows up as you grow: SalesThumb Growth is $399/mo (10 seats, AI features, multi-vertical support) and Pro is $599/mo (unlimited seats, Vision AI, AI Ops Assistant). TintPro publishes one flat tier; SalesThumb has a tiered path that adds capability, not just a higher bill, as a shop scales.
Yes — SalesThumb has a live Zapier integration plus outbound webhooks, so the kind of connections you're used to (new invoice → Slack, new customer → your CRM) carry over. The difference is what's built in on top: TintPro's automation runs through Zapier connections, while SalesThumb adds first-party AI directly in the workflow — Smart Pricing, photo-to-quote, an AI SMS dispatcher — without needing a Zap for each one. A full documented public API is still on our roadmap; today it's Zapier plus webhooks, same category TintPro competes in.
TintPro processes payments through 100 Group with no listed transaction fee beyond standard processing. SalesThumb Connect runs on pass-through processing rates too — no markup or platform fee added on our end. The two aren't run by the same processor, so it's worth comparing your actual processing statement before you switch, but neither platform is tacking a fee on top of processing.
Migration follows the same days-not-weeks timeline we quote for any switch: a single-shop move is mostly catalog work, since payments (100 Group → SalesThumb Connect) and Zapier automations both reconnect without a rebuild from scratch. Multi-location TintPro shops take longer, because TintPro has no rollup dashboard of its own to migrate away from — you're building your SalesThumb HQ structure new.
