Know your store's heartbeat
Dealership owners and GMs juggle too many priorities. CarDealerPulse gives you one dashboard to check the health of every department — so you can stop guessing and start knowing.
No credit card required. Full access for 30 days.
Running a dealership shouldn't feel like flying blind
You manage 5-8 departments simultaneously. End-of-day reports and lot walks aren't cutting it anymore.
Delayed awareness
Problems — aged inventory, stalled recon, pending ROs — aren't surfaced until they've already cost you money.
Holding cost bleed
Every day a vehicle sits in recon costs $35-75 in floor plan interest, depreciation, and opportunity cost.
Communication gaps
Service advisors, recon managers, and sales use different systems — or no system — to track vehicle status.
No single source of truth
Each department has its own view of reality. You're walking the lot and making phone calls to get answers.
Everything you need to run a tighter store
Purpose-built by people who know the car business. Not another generic project management tool.

Frequently asked questions
How does the 30-day free trial work?
Sign up and get full access to every feature for 30 days. No credit card required. If you decide CarDealerPulse isn't for you, just don't subscribe — your data is kept for 30 more days in case you change your mind.
What does 'per rooftop' mean?
Each physical dealership location counts as one rooftop. If you run 3 stores, you need either 3 per-rooftop subscriptions or the Unlimited plan. Users can have access to multiple rooftops under one login.
How long will launch pricing last?
Launch pricing is available for early adopters and will be locked in for the life of your subscription. Once we move to standard pricing, existing subscribers keep their rate.
Can my team use it on their phones?
Yes. We have a native iOS app built with SwiftUI. It includes VIN scanning, photo capture, push notifications, and Face ID login. Android is coming in V2.
What roles are available?
8 built-in roles: GM/Owner, Used Car Manager, Recon Manager, Sales Manager, Service Manager, Service Advisor, Detail Lead, and Lot Porter. Each role has tailored permissions and views.
Is our data secure?
Absolutely. Complete data isolation between organizations, encrypted connections, JWT-based authentication, and role-based access control. Your data is never shared across dealerships.
Can I import my existing inventory?
Yes. Bulk CSV import with auto-column mapping is built in. Upload your spreadsheet and vehicles are mapped to the pipeline automatically.
Do I need to install anything?
The web dashboard runs in any modern browser — no install needed. The iOS app is available on the App Store. Both connect to the same account.
