Why ORCA

Built by tuners, for tuners. Same physics behind every file.

We tune our own cars on the same platform we sell to you. Every recipe is proven on a real vehicle before it lives in our library.

2.5M maps. 458 A2L. 24 ECU families.

DAMOS-validated, indexed, and continuously growing. Whatever the car your customer rolls in, we probably have a recipe for it.

AutoTuner-equipped headquarters

Real workbench in Derbyshire. Real cars on the lift. Every recipe has been validated against actual hardware before it lives in your file.

55-point safety check, no exceptions

Boost limits, EGT, rail pressure, smoke models, torque limiters, thermal margins. Every file you sell has passed all 55 — protects your customers and your reputation.

Protected territory at Pro and above

Quantum-style postcode (Pro) and county (Master) protection. We don't sell two dealerships into the same patch — your customers stay yours.

FAQ

The questions every tuner asks before signing up to a network.

Why join an ORCA network instead of going direct to a remote tuner?

Because the math is better at scale. Average remote-tuner files are £150-250 retail with £40-60 wholesale. ORCA Agent at £45/file lets you retail at £200-400 with full margin. Pro brings that to £30/file plus protected territory. Add the marketing support, AI safety checks, and 24-hour turnaround — most independent tuners can't match it on the first three months alone.

What does "protected territory" actually mean?

At Pro: we won't sign up another Pro Dealer in your immediate postcode area (typically a 5-mile radius around your workshop). At Master: full county exclusivity. We document the boundary in writing as part of your dealer agreement. If an Agent tier signs up in your patch, they're wholesale-only without territory — you keep customer-facing brand presence.

How fast is a file actually turned around?

Agent: 24 working hours. Pro: 4 working hours during 09:00-18:00 weekdays. Master: as fast as we can move (typically same-day, often within 90 min). Late-night / weekend turnaround is possible at Master tier on prior arrangement.

What ECUs are NOT covered?

Currently no support for: locked Toyota NEC ECUs (76F00xx series — research in progress), encrypted Continental SID217 (rare), latest Mercedes-Benz PTM with sealed bootloader (under research), Tesla. Everything else common in the UK fleet is covered.

What about MOT, insurance, warranty for OUR customers?

Our Stage 1 calibrations are MOT-safe (we don't touch DPF/EGR/AdBlue on road-going cars). Insurance must be declared by the end customer; we provide written documentation of the change for them to give their insurer. Manufacturer warranty: any modification can affect a warranty claim, this is your customer's decision. We give you the wording sheets and FAQ to walk customers through this.

What's the minimum monthly commitment?

Agent: none. £0/mo + £45 per file as you use it. Pro: 1 month rolling. Master: 3-month minimum then rolling, because we allocate territory and don't want to flip it every 30 days.

How do I actually deliver the file to my customer?

We email you an encrypted download link the moment your file passes safety check. You flash it onto the customer's ECU using your own tool (AutoTuner, KESS3, etc.) — exactly the same workflow you have today, just with our file in your tool. At Master tier the email and portal can be white-labelled to your brand.
