AutoGrid

AutoGrid v1 introduces a streamlined feature focused solely on number plate scanning to update the location of vehicles directly to the AutoGrid server. Though this initial version is limited in scope, it lays the groundwork for a powerful mobile-first system designed to enhance efficiency across the entire dealership workflow. With AutoGrid, your dealership gains a mobile companion that integrates seamlessly with your existing Dealer Management System (DMS). It empowers teams with real-time tools to manage live inventory, prep statuses, sales leads, parts flow, and financial visibility — all from the convenience of a smartphone. The key function of v1 centers around number plate scanning. Staff can quickly scan the plate of any vehicle to instantly update its location within the dealership. This ensures that every car's whereabouts are accurately recorded and traceable on your site's digital map. Whether the car is in the valet zone, workshop, or bodyshop, AutoGrid provides visibility into where the car was last scanned and by whom, creating accountability and minimizing delays. This feature becomes even more powerful when combined with KeyTraka integration, allowing users to see not just where the vehicle is, but also where its key is stored and who accessed it. By removing guesswork, it improves turnaround times and reduces inefficiencies in day-to-day operations. AutoGrid is built for teams of all sizes, from single-site dealerships to expansive multi-location businesses. Its intuitive interface and role-based mobile access mean each department — from prep and parts to sales and management — gets tailored tools without unnecessary complexity. Every scan feeds into a real-time system that keeps your team informed and connected, no matter where they are on-site. While version 1 is focused on scanning and location updates, future iterations of AutoGrid expand this core functionality. Dealerships will be able to manage live vehicle inventory, track sales leads, monitor profitability, and gain deep insights from dashboards that highlight KPIs like daily deals, overdue parts, and missed opportunities. AutoGrid is more than just a location tool — it’s a scalable solution designed to help dealerships work smarter, act faster, and remain competitive in a dynamic market. Version 1 may be a first step, but it’s a crucial one toward full dealership digitization and mobility.
