Daily briefing · Thu, Jun 25

Yesterday was active for Smith Auto Sales — 2 new website leads and 3 shoppers chatted with your AI assistant overnight. Two chats asked for SUVs or trucks under $30k; your 2017 BMW X3 Sport at $21,636 was a strong match. The unit I would focus on today is your 2013 Jaguar XJ: 408 days on the lot at $25,432 with no recent inquiries. Fresh photos or a ~$1,500 price adjustment could help it stand out next to your Mazda CX-30 and Camry.

Highlights

  • Daily morning briefing

    LotIQ summarizes yesterday’s leads, AI chats, sales, and lot activity—delivered fresh each day in your dashboard.

  • Specific vehicle callouts

    Flags aging units by year, make, and price—like a 2013 Jaguar XJ at 408 days—with concrete next steps.

  • Demand trends from chat

    Aggregates what shoppers ask for in AI chat—SUVs under $30k, unmet body styles, and vehicles getting the most interest.

  • Matched vs. unmet demand

    Shows when your lot matched shopper requests—and when demand outpaced what you have in stock.

  • Built into Insights

    Demand analytics and conversation summaries live where your team already works—Dashboard → Overview and Insights.

  • Pairs with AI inventory chat

    LotIQ learns from the same live stock your customer-facing AI assistant uses—one source of truth.

Why it matters

Independent dealers do not have time to read every chat transcript or spreadsheet every morning. LotIQ does that work for you: it turns activity on your AutoFire site into actionable insights—which cars matched overnight demand, which units need a price or photo refresh, and where shopper interest is trending.

Practical notes

LotIQ is included for paid plans—insights are a platform feature, not an add-on spreadsheet export.

Briefings use your real inventory and conversation data; demo accounts may show sample copy for illustration.

How it works in AutoFire

  • Shoppers browse and chat on your dealer site; leads and conversations flow into AutoFire automatically.
  • Each night, LotIQ analyzes the prior day and writes a daily briefing on your dashboard overview.
  • Open Insights → Demand trends for period-over-period shopper themes and sourcing gaps.
  • Review Conversations when LotIQ flags unmet demand or repeat questions you do not stock.
