AI BDC & Phone Agents
Voice AI and automated BDC platforms that answer calls, book appointments, and follow up. CDK's research puts 47% of sales appointments and 61% of service appointments on the phone, which is why this is the hottest category in dealer AI.
11 companies →Sales & Lead Follow-Up
AI that engages internet leads, qualifies shoppers, and works the follow-up cadence your BDC drops. The proven wins here are response speed and persistence, not clever copy.
12 companies →Website & Digital Retail
Website platforms, chat, and digital retail tools adding agentic features. The bar: live inventory, real pricing consistency, and completing transactions a shopper starts.
11 companies →Service & Fixed Ops
Scheduling, status updates, and service-lane AI. Structured interactions make fixed ops the natural fit for agents, and where after-hours coverage pays fastest.
6 companies →Inventory & Merchandising
Imaging, merchandising, and inventory intelligence. AI here decides how your cars look online and which units get attention before they age.
3 companies →Data, DMS & Platforms
The systems of record and the AI being bolted onto them. Every agent you buy is only as good as its access to these pipes.
11 companies →Marketing & Advertising
AI-driven marketing platforms, predictive targeting, and equity mining. Works when the data underneath is clean; embarrassing when it is not.
9 companies →Buyer-Side & Desking
The frontier: agents that structure deals, negotiate, and shop on behalf of consumers. Watch this category even if you never buy from it, because it is shopping you.
