🌐 The MDC SaaS Network — Mike's empire of empires
Mike's whole platform — the ABCs, the Buddy Wrench radio, the Voice-to-Article, the Outbound Radar, the Reputation Shield — re-skinned and licensed to 20 independent shops across the country. They pay monthly. They run their shops on Mike's algorithm. The honesty checks can't be turned off. Mike never meets them, never shakes their hand — and he collects residual royalties every month.
🗺 20 licensed nodes · 14 states · all running Mike's algorithm
📋 Active licensed shop network · all running Mike's algorithm

🔒 The Honesty Algorithm — the laws that can't be turned off
When a shop licenses Mike's software, they get the WHOLE platform. But they can't disable the honesty checks. The algorithm enforces Mike's character at every point. The shop is FORCED to operate at MDC's standard. The customer always wins.
ABCs required before any major repair
The licensed shop's RO cannot reach "ready to invoice" status until Advanced Continuity · Borescope · Circuit Isolation are documented for any electrical-related work. The customer sees the proof on their receipt.
Line-flush waiver mandatory on rebuilds
Every rebuilt unit ships with the digital waiver checkbox. Customer cannot complete checkout without acknowledging the post-repair flush protocol. Stops "milkshake" warranty claims cold.
Flat-rate transparency required
The platform auto-fills Mitchell flat-rate book hours on every quote. Shops can adjust UP only with a documented reason. No hidden upcharge fees · the customer sees book vs. actual side-by-side.
Pickup sign-off auto-prints
The Rock-Climber Pickup Sign-Off PDF generates on every closed RO. Customer signs digitally before they leave. No shop can disable this — protects both the customer and the shop.
Customer review SMS auto-triggers at 6/12/24 months
The Stay-Repaired Engine fires for every customer in every licensed shop. Real testimonials get captured · fake competitor reviews get challenged automatically across the entire network.
Honesty score · publicly displayed
Each shop's compliance with Laws 1-5 produces a public-facing "honesty score" displayed on their landing page. Below 95% = soft-warning. Below 85% = license suspended pending compliance review.
🎨 Skin color showcase — same software, different shop personalities
When a shop signs up, they pick their skin. The whole interface re-themes — header gradient, accent color, logo placement, terminology. Mike's algorithm runs underneath, invisible. The shop owner can sleep at night knowing it's THEIR brand on the customer-facing side.
