Two CRMs for independents. One different idea of AI.
AutoRaptor is a basic CRM for independent and used-car dealers. BKD takes a different path: specialized AI per lead type over text and email, humans on every call, and appraisal through delivery in the same login.
Where AutoRaptor fits.
Independent focus
A CRM for independent and BHPH lots since 2006.
Basic and quick to start
Kept simple, with a short setup.
Where BKD is different.
Three lead types, three purpose-built agents
BKD ships specialized AI agents for sellers, buyers, and subprime finance leads. Each one is built for that conversation, not one generic assistant for everything.
AI texts and emails. Humans take the calls.
BKD's AI works leads over text and email, and your people take every call through a browser Power Dial, so customers always talk to someone from your store.
Appraisal to delivery in one login
BKD includes an appraisal workbench with sold comps and a scatter plot, plus live DMS inventory sync, deal pipeline, and delivery tracking. No separate tools.
Build, test, and version your own agents
A guided agent builder with a live Test Drive lets you shape an agent and watch it respond before it touches a customer. Every change is versioned. Each store gets a named AI team member with its own phone number.
Lead distribution that knows who is working
BKD's round robin and weighted distribution skip reps who are off that day and rebalance automatically. Built and tested against real leads on a working sales floor.
A mobile app built around calls and the AI
BKD's iOS and Android apps give reps the unified inbox, calls on their own BKD line with cell fallback, push alerts for new leads and Sidekick handoffs, appointments, and one-tap take-over from the AI.
Choose BKD if
- You want appraisal, inventory, deals, and delivery in the same login as your CRM.
- You want AI specialized by lead type on text and email, with every call kept human.
- You want to build and test your own agents, with a named AI team member on its own number per store.
Five questions to ask both of us.
Take these into every vendor call, ours included. The answers separate demos from reality.
- 1Can I see a real transcript of what the AI sends to a fresh lead before I sign?
- 2Exactly what is in the quoted monthly price, and what costs extra? Texting overages, AI plans, setup, add-ons?
- 3How does lead distribution handle a rep who is off today? Can I weight leads between reps?
- 4Walk me through appraising a trade. Where does the number come from, and what data backs it?
- 5What is the contract term, how does auto-renewal work, and how do I export my data if I leave?
