Website closes best per lead. Want it broken down by rep?
BKD is an AI-powered dealership CRM with a Claude connector built on BKD's MCP server. Once added, Claude can search customers, read customer conversations, check deals and live inventory, run lead-source and rep reports, and add notes in BKD, using the signed-in rep's own permissions.
Your CRM, inside Claude.
Claude is where a lot of managers already write their reports and plan the week. With BKD connected, the numbers come straight from the CRM instead of a spreadsheet export, and Claude can work on them across web, desktop and mobile.
Search contacts by name, phone, vehicle or lead source and pull up the full record: owner, stage, trade-in and history.
Every text, call and note on a customer's thread, or a search across all messages for who mentioned a trade, price or financing.
Deals by stage, rep or date, so you can ask what's stuck, what's approved and what's delivering this week.
Units in stock filtered by make, model, year, price, mileage or days on the lot. Admins also get Market Watch flags on aging and stale prices.
Leads, appointments, shows and sales by lead source, campaign, rep or lead type, including side-by-side breakdowns.
Leads, appointments booked, shows, no-shows and units sold per rep (admins), plus how every lead turned out: sold, lost and why, or still open.
The only writes: add a note or log an activity on a customer. Nothing is ever deleted or overwritten.
Questions dealers actually ask.
- “Which AutoTrader leads from this week haven't had a reply yet?”
- “How many appointments did each rep set last month, and how many showed?”
- “Find the customer who asked about a white Tacoma and summarize where the deal is.”
- “What used SUVs under $30,000 do we have in stock right now?”
- “Which lead source sold the most units this quarter?”
- “Add a note to John Smith: called back, wants to come in Saturday morning.”
