OmniTrust AutoAuth platform introduces Certified Tool and Technician Program

OmniTrust has announced the expansion of its AutoAuth platform, introducing the industry's first Certified Tool and Technician Program. This program is designed to address the growing need for trusted technicians across the automotive aftermarket, particularly in services such as locksmithing and key programming. 

The AutoAuth Certified Tool and Technician Program introduces scalable service for validating both the authenticity of the technician performing the work and the tools being used. The AutoAuth Certified Technician Service is designed to securely authenticate the entire service workflow for vehicles, ensuring both the technician and the vehicle owner are verified before any service is performed. The AutoAuth Certified Tool Service is designed to provide tracking for all genuine OEM tools while also ensuring the tools are being used where they were intended. This service is provided free to ETI members in good standing with the Institute.

What people are saying

"AutoAuth was built to bring trust and verification to the automotive ecosystem," said David Sequino, President and CEO of AutoAuth (part of OmniTrust). "As the industry evolves, it's not enough to know who is doing the work, we also need confidence in the tools being used. This program delivers both."

"Efforts like these from OmniTrust's AutoAuth team highlight the importance of building trusted, secure systems within the aftermarket ecosystem," said Chris Bowman, ETI US Executive Director. "Advancements in this area are a meaningful step toward strengthening confidence and integrity across the industry."
