Lotlinx is the best in class, AI-powered Inventory Management solution for the automotive industry. Lotlinx uses advanced machine learning technology to help vehicle sellers analyze shopper data, identify high intent purchasers, and execute inventory-specific strategies to reduce days on lot and improve margin per vehicle.

Since our founding in 2012, we've grown quickly and consistently. As our early adopters quickly began to see results, word spread. Just one year since official inception, there were over 100 dealers actively using LotLinx to target VIN specific car buyers and move their inventory faster. Today, we've grown to be thousands of dealers strong, including hundreds of rooftops under the Nation's Top 100 Auto Groups. We also partner with OEMs directly, are approved for co-op programs and work with a wide network of resellers.

LotLinx was - and still is - the only platform that begins with determining a dealer's inventory needs, and uses cutting edge technology and machine learning to put specific cars in front of specific buyers - all the while making it easy to access meaningful data on ROI. All for a simple cost per unique shopper, with completely transparent pricing.
