For dealers, by a dealer

Every lead answered in about a minute. Nights and weekends too.

An assistant that texts your leads back with real cars from your lot, and one phone screen that shows you who's ready to buy. You step in when they want to talk deal. We set it up and watch it for you.

Text Max like a buyer Book 15 minutes

Built and used every day on a buy-here-pay-here lot in Lancaster County, PA.

Example conversation on the demo lot.

The leak

You only see the buyers who waited.

The ones who texted at 9 PM and bought somewhere else by morning never show up in your numbers. Your guys aren't slow. Nobody answers a text at 9:40 at night from the dinner table.

You don't need more leads. You need to answer the ones you already pay for.

7:12 PMA website lead asks about a car. You're closing a deal.
9:40 PMA Facebook message: "still available?" You're at dinner.
SatThree texts come in after you've locked the gate.
9:03 AMYou finally reply. Two of them already bought a car.
Why this exists

Built on a lot, not in an office.

I'm not a software guy. I run sales at a buy-here-pay-here lot in Lancaster County, and I'm on the lot every day.

I was answering the same five texts at 10 at night and still losing buyers who texted somewhere else first. Nothing I could buy fit a lot like ours, so I built it for us: an assistant that answers in a minute with the real cars on our lot, follows the rules, and hands me the ones who are ready.

We use it every day. Now I set it up for other dealers, and I watch it for them the way I watch it for us.

What you get back

Your evenings first. Then everything else.

Time

You get

Nights and weekends back. No more typing "yes, it's still available" for the fourth time.

We carry

The setup and the weekly check. You give 15 minutes a week and keep your inventory sheet current.

Money

You get

More cars sold from the leads you already pay for.

We carry

A free 30-day pilot. Stop any day.

Reputation

You get

Buyers get a fast, straight answer, and that shows up in your reviews.

We carry

It never promises approvals or quotes payments, follows your state's texting rules, and honors STOP.

Energy

You get

No new software to learn. One phone screen, a reply already written, a Send button.

We carry

Start as small as you want: drafts you approve, or after-hours only.

Identity

You get

The lot that answers first, ahead of the big stores down the road.

We carry

It sounds like your lot, says it's automated, and hands the buyer to you.

How it works

A lead comes in. Here's what happens.

Answered in a minute, with a real car

The assistant texts back, checks today's lot, and names cars that fit what the buyer asked for. It never promises approval or quotes a payment.

You see who's ready

One screen on your phone: who's waiting on you, a reply already written, a Send button. You step in when they want to talk deal.

Nothing slips

If a form breaks, texts get blocked, or a car has no photos, you hear about it the same day.

Don't take our word for it

Try Max yourself.

Max is the assistant for Demo Motors, our practice lot. It runs the same system your lot would get. Ask it what a real buyer asks: what's on the lot, what you'd need to bring, if you can come Saturday.

Open the demo lot

Demo Motors is a made-up lot. Nothing you type there goes to a real dealer.

0:00
  1. Start the stopwatch on your phone.
  2. Open the demo lot and ask Max about a car.
  3. Stop it when the answer lands. Then text your own lot the same question tonight.
Proof

One lot, real numbers.

We're new, so we won't tell you we've got 200 dealers. We've got one lot, the one Jordan runs: a buy-here-pay-here lot in Lancaster County.

—Average first reply to a lead, before and after
—After-hours leads answered in a month
—Hours a week the manager got back

Numbers go up here once the owner signs off on them in writing. We only post figures we can show you.

Free 30-day pilot

Try it on your lot for 30 days. We carry the risk.

15-minute call

You tell us how leads reach you today. We tell you straight if it's a fit.

We set it up

Your cars, your rules, your way of talking. You approve the setup before it texts anyone.

30 days live

It answers your leads. We check in for 15 minutes each week and fix anything it gets wrong.

Day 25 report

What it answered, how fast, and what came of it. You decide: keep going or stop.

What you do

  • Keep your inventory sheet current.
  • Give us 15 minutes a week.
  • Agree up front on what "it worked" means.

What stays yours

  • Your phone number and your customer list.
  • The right to stop any day.
The rules it follows

It won't say what you can't take back.

  • Never promises an approval or quotes a payment.
  • Says it's an automated assistant, then hands off to you.
  • Answers a buyer who texted first right away, day or night. Any text it starts goes only to people who said yes to texts, and only in the hours your state allows (in Pennsylvania: 9 AM to 7 PM, no Sundays).
  • Stops for good when someone texts STOP.
  • We read its conversations every week and fix what it got wrong.

Who it's not for

  • Dealers who only want ads run, without the system behind them.
  • Dealers who want ads with payment amounts or "everyone's approved." We won't build that.
  • Franchise stores locked into their own CRM.
Book 15 minutes
