Automotive Intelligence
Digital solutions for dealerships, dealer groups and vehicle trade.
Specialized software and platforms for the automotive industry -- from vehicle valuation to parts trading. We know the industry and its systems.
The Challenge
In our dealership we work with five different systems that do not communicate with each other. We do vehicle valuations by hand, photos end up on USB sticks, and our after-sales runs on Excel spreadsheets. With multiple locations we completely lose track.
How we solve it
We build central platforms that connect your existing DMS systems, automate processes and give you real-time visibility across all locations. Every tool is built specifically for the automotive trade -- no generic solutions that only half fit.

What this looks like in practice
Central platform for a dealer group
A dealer group with 5 locations and over 800 vehicles in stock managed each location separately. Vehicle inventories were maintained manually in Excel, listings were posted individually on Mobile.de, and management had no cross-location overview of sales and margins.
Development of a central platform with real-time inventory overview, automatic listing creation and cross-location reporting. Listing time per vehicle dropped from 25 minutes to under 5 minutes. Management now receives daily reports with sales, margins and days-on-lot per location.
Automated vehicle documentation for used car dealer
A used car dealer with 200 vehicles in stock had massive problems with inconsistent documentation. Photos were poorly lit, damages were overlooked, and pricing was based on gut feeling rather than market data. Post-sale complaints had doubled within a year.
Introduction of a digital valuation process with standardized checklists, automatic market price analysis and structured photo documentation. Complaints dropped by 60% in the first half year. Average margin per vehicle increased by 400 euros as pricing is now based on real market data.

FAQ
Do you work with existing DMS systems?
Yes, we have experience with common dealer management systems like Cross, AUTOonline and others. We implement interfaces to your existing systems or migrate data when a switch makes sense. Usually the existing DMS continues to run and our platform complements it.
What does a dealership platform cost?
Costs depend on the scope of features. A basic platform for a single location with inventory management and listing creation starts at around 15,000 euros development plus monthly operating costs. For dealer groups with multiple locations and individual requirements we create a tailored offer.
Can you also support smaller dealerships?
Absolutely. Our solutions scale in both directions -- from a single location with 30 vehicles to a dealer group with dozens of branches. For smaller businesses we offer standardized modules that are quick to deploy and cost-effective.
How long does it take to introduce a new platform?
A single module like vehicle valuation is ready for use in 4 to 6 weeks. A complete platform with DMS integration and multiple locations typically requires 3 to 4 months. We work in phases so that initial modules can go live early.
