About FixMate

FixMate is an AI-powered repair assistant designed to help everyday Australians diagnose, troubleshoot, and fix broken items around the home, car, and workshop. Whether it's a leaky faucet, a malfunctioning washing machine, a car engine warning light, or a power tool that won't start, FixMate turns your smartphone camera into a diagnostic tool. Simply snap a photo of the problem, add a brief description, and the AI delivers an instant diagnosis complete with severity assessment, step-by-step repair instructions, required tools and parts, thread and measurement identification, and transparent cost estimates for both DIY and professional repairs.

FixMate is built for DIY enthusiasts, homeowners, renters, car owners, and anyone who wants to save money and reduce waste by repairing rather than replacing. Beyond diagnostics, the platform offers a growing library of AI-generated repair guides, a materials calculator for projects like painting and concreting, an interactive troubleshooting chat assistant, and a community forum where members share tips and solutions. Our goal is to make repair knowledge accessible, affordable, and practical for everyone — no technical background required.

FixMate is developed and maintained by the FixMate team, an Australian technology group passionate about sustainability, self-reliance, and giving people the confidence to tackle repairs themselves. We combine computer vision, large language models, and real-world repair expertise to deliver guidance you can trust. We're continually improving the platform based on user feedback and welcome your suggestions.
