Smart Test Drive
Scheduling

From conversation to confirmed appointment in under 2 taps. Our scheduling engine syncs in real-time with dealer calendars, sends automated confirmations, and follows up automatically to minimize no-shows.

Integrated with Google Calendar, Outlook, and all major DMS calendar systems. Buyers receive multi-channel reminders — SMS, email, and in-app — to maximize show rates.

Feature 03

Identity Verification
& Pre-Qualification

Embedded ID verification, soft credit pull, and insurance confirmation — all within the conversation. Buyers arrive at the dealership pre-verified and pre-qualified, making the in-store process dramatically faster.
