From AI Qualifier
to Full Automotive OS
TestDrive AI begins as the world's best lead qualification engine — and expands into the complete operating system for modern automotive retail.
🤖 TD Engine™ v3.0
The conversational AI qualification engine. Natural language buyer conversations, 4-step lead scoring, test drive scheduling, dealer CRM integration. Live beta with first dealer partners.
📱 Mobile App — iOS & Android
Buyers can manage their test drive, chat with the AI, upload documents, and track dealer status from their phone. Dealers get a companion app with real-time lead notifications.
🎤 Voice AI & Phone Integration
TD Engine™ answers dealership calls 24/7. Natural voice conversations qualify buyers over the phone, collect intent data, and auto-schedule test drives with zero human intervention.
💰 F&I Intelligence Layer
AI-powered Finance & Insurance matching. The engine pre-qualifies buyers for specific loan products, warranty tiers, and protection packages — serving both the buyer and the dealer's back-end gross.
🚗 Inventory Intelligence
Real-time inventory matching with live dealer lots. The AI shows buyers specific VINs matching their profile, calculates exact out-the-door pricing, and coordinates between multiple dealer partners for best fit.
🌐 Full Automotive OS
TestDrive AI becomes the end-to-end platform for the automotive transaction: AI qualification → test drive → financing → delivery scheduling → post-sale service reminders. One platform, full lifecycle.
The Network Effect
That Compounds Over Time
Every new dealer partner adds inventory density. Every new buyer adds behavioral intelligence. The platform gets smarter and more valuable with every transaction — creating a competitive moat that deepens over time.
