Dealership Engine
Dealership decision software

Know today's 10 gross-protection moves before the first desk meeting.

Dealership Engine turns inventory, CRM, pricing, and funding signals into one short manager worklist for GMs, GSMs, and used-car managers.

Built for: single rooftops and small dealer groups that need a calmer way to catch stale units, weak follow-up, pricing gaps, and funding risk.

Built first for: single rooftops and small dealer groups that need a daily gross-protection worklist, not another report inbox.

What the software does

Daily decision board

Ranks which vehicles, leads, pricing gaps, and funding risks need management attention first.

Deal desk structuring

Turns selected inventory into estimated OTD, payment posture, talk track, and manager packet.

Source trust controls

Shows source, timestamp, rule, confidence, and no-go conditions before a manager acts on a recommendation.

How the morning board works

1. Pull the signals

Inventory, CRM activity, pricing pressure, funding risk, and source quality get normalized into one operating view.

2. Rank the exceptions

The board pushes the few units, leads, and deals most likely to cost gross above normal report noise.

3. Hand off with proof

Every recommendation carries source, timestamp, confidence, blocker, and what would change the answer.

Who it is for

Best fit

Single rooftops and small dealer groups where the GM, GSM, used-car manager, BDC, and F&I team still need a shared morning priority list.

Not the fit yet

Stores expecting autonomous customer contact, credit decisions, lender approvals, or replacement of the CRM/DMS should not use the pilot that way.

Owner / GM

See where money is leaking and which operating moves should happen before another report cycle.

GSM / desk manager

Work a short list of units and leads with enough source context to decide what happens next.

F&I / BDC / sales

Spot stip risk, follow-up gaps, and sales-floor opportunities with a shared operating view.

30-day pilot terms

Read-only first

Start from a sample export or demo feed. No shopper contact, credit discussion, deposits, or approval promises.

Morning adoption test

The GM should know the top units, leads, prices, and funding risks before the first desk meeting.

Keep-or-kill scorecard

Compare aged-unit movement, response speed, funded-deal quality, and gross retained against the starting baseline.

Dealer dataUse a read-only inventory, CRM, or deal export when the store is ready.
Manager proofEach recommendation carries source, confidence, and the action it supports.
Operating boundaryThe product recommends desk priorities; managers still approve every customer-facing step.
Pilot decisionAfter 30 days, keep it only if the board changes daily behavior.

What operators need to believe

The page should feel like a daily operating habit, not an AI pitch.

The first screen now shows the actual worklist, the 60-second review path, and the 30-day pilot scorecard a principal or GM can judge.
