Vendor-neutral AI implementation for dealerships

Turn AI into working dealership processes.

Not another tool. Three workflows that pay for themselves, built inside the systems your store already runs, with a named owner, a one-page scorecard, and 60 days of us on the hook after go-live.

Where dealers see movement first

AI workflows a dealership can actually run.

Every one of these is a place money already leaks. We pick the three with the biggest gap between what the store does today and what a documented, owned process would catch.

01BDC

Missed-call and after-hours recovery

Every missed call gets a fast, tracked follow-up, with a transcript the manager can inspect.

02Sales

Internet lead response assistant

Fast, personalized first replies around the clock. Drafted by AI, sent by your people until the guardrails earn more.

03BDC

No-show and aged-lead recovery

A structured reactivation cadence with the drafts ready, so the 90-day-old lead gets the same effort as the fresh one.

04Showroom

Unsold showroom follow-up

Personalized follow-ups tied to the test drive and the objection, not a generic "just checking in."

05Equity

Lease maturity outreach

Equity-positioned outreach 90 days out, with the payment math done before the customer asks.

06Service

Declined work and equity mining

Monthly equity lists and declined-service lists turned into outreach a service advisor can run in an hour.

Not a vendor. Not a deck. Not a course.

Everyone else hands you a piece. We hand you a running process.

Software vendors

Sell one tool and expect your store to build the process around it.

Traditional consultants

Often stop at strategy and hand you a deck.

Training platforms

Teach AI concepts but do not implement anything in your store.

Internal DIY

Talented people experimenting without shared governance or owners.

Dealer AI Partners

We choose the workflows, build them, train the team, assign owners, and measure adoption. Then we stay for 60 days.

Diagnose. Build. Train. Measure.

The 45-day Dealer AI Operating System.

A fixed sequence with dates, not a retainer that drifts. Nothing reaches a customer before a manager has approved it in testing.

Days 1–7

Diagnose

Stack review, workflow-leak interviews, AI visibility scan.

Days 8–14

Prioritize & baseline

Choose three workflows and record the numbers we intend to move.

Days 15–28

Build

SOPs, prompts, scripts, templates, automation and guardrails.

Days 29–35

Train & test

Manager and frontline training; controlled testing with manager approval before anything reaches a customer.

Days 36–45

Launch & hand off

Go live, inspect adoption, hand ownership to your managers.

Next 60 days

Stabilize

We stay on to fix what real usage exposes.

What you get

Ten deliverables. Every one has an owner inside your store.

AI opportunity map

Where the store leaks money today, ranked, with the numbers behind each line.

Three prioritized workflows

Ranked by revenue impact, effort, and how ready the team is to run them.

SOPs and owner assignments

Every workflow written down with a named owner inside your store.

Prompts, scripts and templates

The exact language your people use, built for your brand and your market.

Automation where practical

We automate the steps that are safe to automate and leave the rest to people.

Manager scorecard

One simple page a manager can inspect weekly, not another dashboard.

Team training

Manager sessions and frontline sessions so the workflow survives week three.

Customer-facing AI guardrails

Rules for what AI may say to a customer, and where a human takes over.

30/60/90-day roadmap

What to do after launch, in order, with owners attached.

60 days of stabilization support

We stay on after go-live to fix what real usage exposes.

No tool agenda. No science project.

Vendor-neutral only means something if we are specific about what we refuse.

  • We will not sell you a tool we own.
  • We will not replace your CRM or DMS by default.
  • We will not launch uncontrolled customer-facing AI.
  • We will not bury your managers in dashboards.
  • We will not recommend a workflow without an owner and a KPI.

Pricing

Start with a review. Build with the 45-day system.

The review is paid because it is real work, and it is credited in full toward the build if you start within 30 days.

Questions dealers ask us

Before you request the review.

Which workflow should we start with?

Usually the one where money is already leaking: missed calls, aged leads, or declined service work. The paid review picks it based on your numbers, not a guess.

Do we have to change our CRM or DMS?

No. We build inside what you already pay for wherever that is possible. If a tool has to change, we say so and explain the trade-off.

What stops AI from saying the wrong thing to a customer?

Every customer-facing workflow gets written guardrails: what AI may say, what it must never say, and where a human takes over. Nothing goes live uncontrolled.

Can you do a store-wide AI strategy first?

No. A store-wide AI strategy without working processes is a document. We start with three workflows that pay for themselves and build the strategy around what works.

How much of our managers' time does this take?

One manager owns each workflow, attends training, and inspects the scorecard weekly. Expect a few hours a week during the 45 days, less after launch.

Why is the review paid?

Because it is real work: a visibility scan, a vendor-stack review, manager interviews, and a prioritized opportunity map. It is $750, credited in full toward the 45-day build if you start within 30 days.

What happens in the 45 days?

Days 1–7 diagnose, 8–14 prioritize and baseline, 15–28 build, 29–35 train and test, 36–45 launch, inspect and hand off. Then 60 days of stabilization support.

Do you work with dealer groups?

Yes. Groups are a strong fit because one operating system can be standardized and rolled out rooftop by rooftop.

Not sure where AI fits first?

Stop collecting AI tools. Start running AI processes.
