Fleet Operator Guide

Robotic fleet car wash — autonomous, waterless, 24/7

Built for fleet operators who lose margin to labor cost per wash, wash consistency across crews, and throughput per hour. EVERWASH-1 is the dual-bot autonomous answer — and you keep the wash revenue.

Operator Pain Points

The three costs that quietly
erase your wash margin.

Pain point · Labor cost per wash

$1.50–$12 in wages
per vehicle washed.

Roll-over tunnels still need a spotter. Hand-wash detail crews run 1–2 detailers per car, every shift, every day. At 900 washes/month, labor alone can erase $10K+ of monthly gross margin.

EVERWASH-1 outcome $0 marginal labor — dual-bot runs unattended. Fleet ops staff only step in for scheduled maintenance windows, not per-wash handoffs.
Pain point · Wash consistency

Different crew, different wash.
Same truck leaves looking different.

Hand-wash quality drifts with whoever is on shift — new hires, training gaps, fatigue, weather rolls. Customers notice. Detail shop callbacks eat the savings you thought you had.

EVERWASH-1 outcome Deterministic cycle — EVERCORE AI vision drives the same mist + microfiber pass every time. Same vehicle gets the same finish at 2pm as at 6am.
Pain point · Throughput per hour

2 vehicles/hour per detail crew.
10–14/hr if you're lucky with a tunnel.

Conventional wash throughput caps out at your labor schedule. Add 80 cars to the queue before close and you either burn overtime or push washes to tomorrow — both expensive.

EVERWASH-1 outcome ≈40 washes/hour with the dual-bot system. Two coordinated bots cycle in parallel, back-to-back, with no operator handoff and no shift premium.
EVERWASH-1 vs. Conventional

Same six dimensions, written
for operators running the numbers.

Dimension EVERWASH-1 (dual-bot) Roll-over / Hand-wash
Cycle time per vehicle
≈ 3 min end-to-end [1] Vision scan, mist cycle, and microfiber wipe run autonomously in a single dual-bot pass — no crew rotation, no handoff delay.
5–30 min per vehicle Roll-over tunnels run 5–8 min/vehicle; hand-wash details take 20–30 min per car. [1][2]
Water use per vehicle
0 gal — proprietary mist + microfiber EVERCORE cycle uses mist spray and microfiber pads. Zero potable water per wash — no rinse discharge, no sewer capex.
60–150 gal per vehicle Roll-over tunnels use 60–100 gal/vehicle; hand-wash details average 80–150 gal/vehicle. [1]
Labor cost per wash
$0 marginal labor — unmanned Dual-bot runs unattended. Labor cost per wash collapses to scheduled maintenance windows — not the 1,500-person-hours a month a hand-wash detail crew burns through.
$1.50–$12 per wash in wages Roll-over: ~$1.50/wash (1 attendant + spotter). Hand-wash: ~$8–$12/wash (1–2 detailers). [3]
Throughput per hour
≈ 40 washes / hour (dual-bot) [2] Two coordinated bots cycle in parallel. Throughput per hour stays flat whether you have a queue of 20 or 200 — no shift premium, no overtime.
2–14 washes / hour Roll-over tunnels top out at 10–14/hr. Hand-wash crews do 2–3 vehicles/hour at peak staffing — and that peak doesn't scale with demand.
Wash consistency (across crews)
Deterministic — same finish every cycle EVERCORE AI vision + fixed mist/wipe motion. New vehicle gets the same wash as the last one, regardless of time of day or operator on shift.
Variable by crew, shift, and weather Detail quality drifts with whoever is on shift. Roll-over tunnels are more consistent but still sensitive to brushes, chemistry, and water pressure.
Downtime / uptime
Target 99% uptime — predictive telemetry Real-time component monitoring flags wear before failure. Scheduled service windows replace unplanned breakdowns — and missed revenue.
70–85% effective uptime Roll-over averages ~85% uptime (reactive mechanical breakdowns). Hand-wash tracks ~70% — weather and staffing gaps cancel shifts without notice.
Footprint + capex
Unit-by-unit deploy — no fixed tunnel Self-contained dual-bot unit. Add capacity one unit at a time as fleet demand grows — no permitting marathon, no years-long build.
$2M+ tunnel build, years of permitting Roll-over tunnels need fixed infrastructure, multi-year construction, and full capex commitment up front.
