A ServiceM8 alternative.
Vynta covers what sits around the job card: stock in each vehicle, the equipment you look after, compliance checks, GPS hours, and dictation that writes the job up from a voice note.

The work
2 sections
Where Vynta fits
Vynta is for a trade business with more than one technician, stock in the vehicles and equipment it has to answer for.
- Work orders with checks, photos, parts and the customer's signature
- Drag-and-drop dispatch across technicians and branches
- Stock on every vehicle, used against the job and topped up from the branch
- Company assets that can be booked, signed out and checked on a schedule
- GPS clock-in that turns into payroll-ready hours
Built here, for here
Vynta is built in Cape Town: rand pricing, POPIA-aligned data handling, and a phone experience that assumes the bars will disappear.
- Rand pricing, so the exchange rate is not your problem
- Data handling aligned to POPIA, with the subprocessor list published
- The whole job captured offline in the browser, with conflict-safe sync
- Support in your timezone
Switching
5 points
What matters when you switch.
We won't put words in another vendor's mouth. Here is what Vynta does on each point, and the question worth asking anywhere else.
Vehicle stock control
Vynta
Stock sits on each vehicle, comes off as it is used on a job, and is reconciled back to the branch.
Ask any alternative
Is stock tracked per vehicle, or held as one warehouse figure?
Offline behaviour
Vynta
Checks, photos, parts and the signature captured with no signal, synced when it returns.
Ask any alternative
What can a technician actually do with no signal, and where do the photos go?
Asset & compliance
Vynta
An asset register, custody handovers, gear booked by the day, checks on a schedule, and a health score from history.
Ask any alternative
Can it show who had which tool, and when it was last checked?
AI in the workflow
Vynta
Dictation that writes the job up, drafted notes and briefs, with a spend cap per business.
Ask any alternative
Is the AI a chat box, or does it produce records the office actually uses?
Pricing
Vynta
R599 a month for the first seat and R99 for each extra user, with 14 days free and no card.
Ask any alternative
Are modules billed separately, and is the price in rands?

Questions
3 answers
ServiceM8 alternative, answered.
Can I move my existing job history across?
Your customers, their branches and your stock list come across as a CSV, with our team mapping the columns during the trial. Old job history is not imported — each asset starts its own record from your first job on it.
Does Vynta do invoicing?
No. Vynta does operations only — work orders, scheduling, stock, assets and hours. Finished job data exports to whatever you already invoice with.
How long does it take to switch?
You can run a real job on day one, and be fully across inside a fortnight of the trial starting.
