AI-Powered Features for Modern Dealerships

From appraisal to sale, Vinly gives your dealership the intelligence layer to lock in profit margins, detect damage automatically, and track every competitor within 5,000 km.

Profit Engine AI

Set your margin first. Get the maximum offer price.

Traditional appraisal tools start with market value and hope for profit. Vinly flips the equation. Enter your target profit margin, and the Profit Engine calculates the maximum allowable offer by factoring in live market value, estimated reconditioning costs, dealer pack, and your desired margin. Every offer is profit-backed before you make it.

  • Profit-first offer calculation
  • Live market value integration
  • Automatic recon cost deduction
  • Configurable dealer pack and margins

BodyShop AI

AI damage detection with instant recon cost estimates.

Take photos of any vehicle and let AI do the inspection. BodyShop AI uses A.I Vision to detect surface defects, dents, scratches, paint damage, and structural concerns. It categorizes damage by severity and estimates reconditioning costs automatically — replacing guesswork with data-driven repair estimates that feed directly into your appraisal.

  • AI-powered surface defect detection
  • Automatic recon cost estimation
  • Market-adjusted repair tiers
  • 25+ damage location categories
02

Live Market Radar

Track every competing vehicle within 5,000 km.

Know exactly what your competition is doing. Market Radar scans live listings across your region to find comparable vehicles, tracking their asking prices, days on market, and how your inventory compares. See supply levels by make, model, and trim. Identify pricing opportunities and threats before they impact your bottom line.

  • 5,000 km radius competitive scan
  • Real-time comparable vehicle tracking
  • Market days supply analysis
  • Price positioning intelligence

Vinny AI Assistant

Ask anything. Get profit-driving answers.

Vinny is your 24/7 inventory strategist. Ask about any vehicle in your inventory, request market comparisons, get pricing recommendations, or check appraisal status — all in natural language. Vinny connects to your live data, so answers are always current. It can look up inventory, pull market data, and schedule appointments through function calling.

  • Natural language inventory queries

  • Chat history with project organization
04

Inventory Management

Exception-based management. Focus on what matters.

Stop reviewing 100% of your inventory every day. Vinly surfaces the 5% that actually needs attention — vehicles aging past your buckets, units priced off-target from market, and stock that needs repricing. Configurable days-in-inventory buckets, custom tags, attention criteria, and automated email alerts keep your team focused on the vehicles that impact your turn rate.

  • Days-in-inventory aging buckets
  • Automated attention alerts
  • Custom tags and filters
  • Daily email reports for at-risk vehicles
05

Dynamic Pricing Engine

Automated pricing rules based on real market conditions.

Set pricing rules that respond to market conditions automatically. Configure brackets based on days-in-inventory or like-mine day supply to adjust pricing as vehicles age or market conditions shift. Track every price change in a full audit trail, set pricing targets as a percentage of market, and get alerts when vehicles drift outside your parameters.

  • Days-in-inventory pricing brackets
  • Like-mine day supply rules
  • Full price change audit trail
  • Configurable pricing alerts and targets
06

Reports & Analytics

Inventory aging, appraisal funnels, and profit trends.

Multi-tab reporting dashboard with inventory aging distribution, appraisal funnel conversion, turn time gauges, and profit trend analysis. Track sales team performance, monitor look-to-book ratios, and see acquisition source efficiency. Three automated daily email reports keep your team informed without logging in.

  • Inventory aging and turn time analytics
  • Appraisal funnel and conversion tracking
  • Sales team performance dashboards
  • Automated daily email reports
