DSS Lightning Search instantly finds AI-enabled software and service solutions for your dealership by solution name, vendor name, product category, keyword, or department. You'll see:
AI Rankings
Rankings are scored at the department level based on whether AI is present, what type (Assistive or Agentic), and its release status. Scores roll up through solution → vendor → parent entity and fall into four bands: Top 10%, Top 25%, Top 50%, and Below 50%.
The ranking index calculates only franchised auto dealer solutions, even though other solutions may be listed. Data is refreshed as vendors update their AI capabilities.
