HaynesPro serves the automotive aftermarket with WorkshopData. Its database contains a vast amount of multilingual automotive OEM-based maintenance, repair and diagnostic data for cars, light commercial vehicles, heavy trucks, and motorcycles.

HaynesPro also provides the automotive parts manufacturing industry through ProFIT. ProFIT enables manufacturers to provide online fitting instructions for their components on a comprehensive range of platforms including tablets, PCs, and smartphones. It also provides an alternative solution for regions where parts catalogues with fully integrated technical data sets are not widely used.

Early years

From the moment HaynesPro, formerly known as Vivid Automotive Data & Media BV, was founded in 1995, it focused on delivering automotive technical data in an electronic format to the European automotive aftermarket.

Vivid’s founders were certain that their company would succeed simply because there was an unfulfilled need for technical information linked to parts; multilingual information stored in accessible databases, something that simply didn’t exist at the time.

Haynes Publishing

In 2008, Vivid became part of the Haynes Publishing Group, a renowned British company deeply embedded in the automotive industry for over 50 years. Haynes, a well-established brand, primarily focuses on the DIY and consumer market. The ‘Pro’ appended to HaynesPro signifies its role as the division dedicated to serving automotive professionals.

HaynesPro’s automotive data and workflow solutions are used by various branches of the automotive industry such as parts distributors, parts manufacturers, diagnostic equipment manufacturers, fleet operators, workshop chains etc. You may not always recognise HaynesPro’s automotive data but if you are active in the automotive aftermarket, you have likely come across their data. The automotive aftermarket is highly dynamic, and this is exactly what makes it interesting and exciting. Technological advances, the growth of electric and hybrid vehicles and “the connected car” are just a few of the factors that will influence the future of the automotive aftermarket. HaynesPro is ready for these changes.
