From key code to invoice. Kleido helps automotive locksmiths convert supported codes to bittings, search known cuts, and find key blanks, Lishi tools and transponder references. Save jobs, keep customer details together and send invoices from your phone. Available on the web and Android in the U.S. Internet required; coverage varies by vehicle and key system. VIN scanning identifies the vehicle; it does not retrieve a VIN-specific key code.

Could you build this?
Partial The jobs, customer records, and invoicing are standard CRUD and vibe-codeable, but the core value depends on curated key code, blank, Lishi, and transponder databases that a builder can't reproduce from public sources.
What it would actually take: The app needs a web and Android front end with a job/customer/invoice backend, plus a relational database of key blanks, cut references, and transponder cross-references. The bitting conversion formulas for supported manufacturers are algorithmic, but accurate blank and transponder data must be compiled through catalog sourcing, manufacturer documentation, or field-verified data from locksmiths. That data work, not the app, is the hard part.
