Intelligent chat that understands your inventory.

LotRanger can help answer customer questions through web and SMS chat using your live inventory, dealership preferences, and previous conversation style.

The challenge

Customers ask questions at 9 PM. Most dealerships answer at 11 AM.

Enquiries arrive around the clock through your website and by text, and every slow or missed reply is an opportunity drifting toward another dealership. Generic chatbots make it worse by giving canned answers that have nothing to do with your actual inventory.

How LotRanger helps

Dealership-specific conversations, not generic chatbot noise

LotRanger chat is connected to your live inventory and your dealership preferences. It can help draft or provide inventory-aware responses, while allowing the dealership to adjust answers and control how customer conversations are handled. It supports your staff instead of replacing their judgment. Intelligent Chat is an optional LotRanger power tool, available separately at a reasonable monthly rate (placeholder: starting at $79/month - final pricing to be confirmed); it is not part of the base per-vehicle weekly core fee.
