Why CarviQ
Why CarviQ exists
Because owning a vehicle shouldn't be a source of stress and surprises.
The problem we solve
You walk out of the garage with a $900 invoice. You had no idea it was coming.
You're selling your car. The buyer wants the history. Your receipts are scattered across 3 places.
Your partner takes your car. It breaks down. Nobody knew the oil change was due.
You pay for your vehicle every month, but the real cost — fuel, maintenance, insurance — stays fuzzy.
What we believe
Absolute neutrality
Pat never receives a cent from dealers or garages. Its advice is never influenced by who pays.
Your data, your property
Built under Law 25. Data hosted in Canada. You export everything, anytime.
Honest about what we are
We're a startup from Saint-Hyacinthe, not a multinational. We build CarviQ because we believe Quebecers deserve an honest tool.
Why not the alternatives?
Paper notebook
Easy to lose, not remote-friendly, hard to share.
Excel
Flexible, but manual, fragile and rarely up to date.
Nothing
Less effort today, more surprises tomorrow.
Generic app
No Québec context: no Régie gas prices, no Law 25, no neutral advisor.
CarviQ
Structured history, scans, reminders, costs and a neutral AI advisor — built for Québec.
