Helping Dealerships be Better | Faster | Smarter
Our AI index ranks software and service providers in the dealership industry based on which solutions have AI, in which departments, and for what purposes.
Data, Scoring & Freshness
To review listings, we start at the department level:
- Is the Department served by the Solution?
- If yes, does the Solution have AI? Our AI type classification for a department is one of the following: Unspecified (not defined), Assistive (supports human tasks), Agentic (acts autonomously), or Both.
- If AI is present, we use Unspecified, Roadmap, Beta, Varies, or Generally Available as the release status for the department.
- A solution may serve multiple departments. Some solutions serve entire dealerships (DMS, Consulting, Payments) and point to one “All Depts.” The information is incorporated into our scoring and is supported by vendor websites or other published materials.
How Scores Roll Up
We numerically score each department based on the AI type and release status, roll results up through the hierarchy, and compare each entity’s raw score to all others at the same level. Scores fall into four bands: Top 10%, Top 25%, Top 50%, and Below 50%.
