Mainstreet Computers launches online auto glass quoting tool built on VIN accuracy

Mainstreet Computers has launched MOE, a self-service quoting and scheduling tool for auto glass shops that plugs into Glas-Avenue and returns shop-specific windshield prices online. The launch gives shops a way to capture quotes and bookings 24/7 while using VIN-based estimates and automated ADAS calibration charges.

Why it matters: - MOE gives auto glass shops a way to capture quotes and appointments online after hours, on weekends and any time the phone is not answered. - VIN-based quoting reduces guesswork by tying the estimate to the exact vehicle instead of a generic model. - Automated scheduling and pricing control can cut manual re-entry and help shops keep more of the booking process inside their own website.

What happened: - Mainstreet Computers launched MOE, short for Mainstreet Online Estimating, on July 7, 2026. - MOE is a customer-facing online quoting, scheduling and booking engine that embeds on a shop’s website. - The tool is available to shops using the Glas-Avenue point-of-sale platform. - Mainstreet Computers is a member of the Convenient Brands family and has served the auto glass software market for more than 40 years.

The details: - Customers enter a zip code and contact information, identify the vehicle by license plate or VIN, and choose the glass to be replaced. - MOE applies insurance or promotional pricing and the selected service location, then returns a shop-specific price immediately. - VIN identification lets MOE detect whether a vehicle needs ADAS calibration and add the calibration charge automatically at the shop’s configured rate. - If the price works, the customer can book the job by choosing the first available slot or a specific date and time. - The customer receives an immediate confirmation after booking. - Every quote appears in a web quote activity report, giving owners and managers visibility into online quote activity and follow-up opportunities. - Shops control pricing, promotions, service locations, scheduling rules and the options customers see. - Quotes and appointments flow directly into existing Glas-Avenue workflows, which eliminates manual re-entry. - Mainstreet Computers said MOE is available now to Glas-Avenue customers. - Shops can request a demo at mainstreetcomputers.com/moe, by email at sales@mainstreetcomputers.com or by phone at 734.699.0025.

Between the lines: - The launch extends Mainstreet Computers from back-office software into customer acquisition and online conversion. - VIN-based estimates and automatic ADAS calibration charges position MOE as a higher-accuracy quoting tool than a generic web form. - The reporting and workflow integration suggest Mainstreet wants MOE to support both booking volume and operational visibility for shop owners.

What's next: - Mainstreet Computers is positioning MOE as a live product for existing Glas-Avenue customers rather than a future release. - Shops that adopt MOE can use it to keep quote requests and bookings inside their branded websites while feeding appointments into existing point-of-sale workflows. - Mainstreet Computers is also promoting its broader product suite, including MobilePRO, VinPRO, Glas-PAY and branded web services.
