Instant Lead Engagement
24/7
50% of leads go with the dealership that engages them in a meaningful conversation first. When you're using BKD, the other guys don't stand a chance.
Finance Managers should focus on dealing with engaged customers. Let AI do the rest.
Leads enter the BKD CRM and are immediately engaged by your AI agent via text, who works to convert them into a live transfer or gather a credit application.
When your AI agent secures a call commitment from a lead, we connect them directly to your finance manager. If the lead prefers texting, the AI collects a credit application before again attempting to convert to a call.
BKDs AI analyzes your leads interaction, assesses if it qualifies for a return, and gives you deep metrics into how your lead providers are performing.
AI is revolutionizing the way dealerships operate
50% of leads choose the first dealership that engages them meaningfully. With BKD, you're always the first—and the competition doesn't stand a chance.
Lead providers often promise closing ratios of 15% or higher.
We bring transparency to these claims by revealing the true performance of their leads. Flagging leads eligible for return and giving you a simple dashboard you can reference before placing another lead order.
The last thing your team needs is to waste time on unresponsive leads.
If a lead can’t be reached by our AI or your finance managers, it automatically enters our follow-up system. Over the course of a year, these leads receive strategic texts, emails, and phone calls designed to re-engage them effectively.
Subprime clients often apply on multiple sites.
Quick engagement increases their stickiness.
Leads engaged within the first 10 minutes by BKD.ai are significantly more likely to convert to a credit application.
With 50% of sales going to the dealer that responds first, BKD.ai ensures you're always ahead, initiating AI-driven conversations that instantly engage leads and drives results.
BKD.ai enables your sales team to focus their efforts on the leads who are most likely to convert. BKD.ai dealers have seen up to a 23% increase in sales after their first month using BKD.
By automating data entry and lead qualification, BKD.ai streamlines your sales process, freeing up your team to focus more on selling and less on trying to get ahold of customers.
BKD.ai enhances your inbound subprime leads with AI, streamlining them into your CRM without any staff input. Expertly pre-qualifying leads using best practices, it transforms basic data into actionable applications and live transfers, while flagging returnable leads. This allows your sales team to focus on the most promising leads to close more deals efficiently.

Unlike other solutions, BKD.ai utilizes advanced AI technologies to not only capture and process leads but also enhance them by filling in missing details necessary for credit applications. Our system prioritizes leads based on their intent and readiness, ensuring your team spends time on the most promising opportunities.
Dealerships must process at least 100 subprime leads per month to qualify for our beta program, ensuring they are adequately equipped to benefit from our services and provide meaningful feedback on the system.
When our AI determines a lead is ready for a live call, we initiate a call to the next available salesperson in your team's round-robin rotation. If the salesperson accepts, we provide a summary and directly connect them with the lead, facilitating a seamless transition and potential sale.
Leads that do not meet specified quality standards are flagged as "returns" within our system. This enables your dealership to potentially seek refunds or credits from the lead provider, ensuring you only pay for leads that meet your criteria.
While BKD.ai offers robust functionality out of the box, we are open to discussing specific customization needs with our clients. Client feedback is invaluable and can lead to tailored features that better serve specific operational requirements.
If a lead doesn't respond, they are managed just as you would handle any traditional lead. Responsive leads, which are generally of higher quality, are emphasized in our analytics to enhance your insight into lead provider performance.
BKD.ai provides comprehensive support through a dedicated client service team. Support is available via phone or email ensuring you have all the help you need.
We summarize the interaction the lead had with the agent in an easy-to-digest format, removing the need to review conversations directly.
Simply make an introduction to your lead provider, and we will handle the rest.
Conversion rates depend on the lead provider and lead quality. For low-quality leads, approximately 55% start a conversation with us, and 20% convert into a live transfer. For higher-quality leads, response rates are over 60%, with nearly 40% converting to live transfers.
Setup can be completed within 3 days, depending on the responsiveness of your CRM and lead providers.
We use standard guidelines such as income threshold, job tenure, driver's license status, and purchase intent to determine if a lead is returnable. Anything that does not meet these requirements is flagged as a "return," but you will need to verify the information against your provider's policy.
You will have access to a dashboard that provides real-time insights into how leads are being processed, the status of live transfers, and the overall performance metrics of your leads.
We prioritize data security. All data is handled with strict confidentiality and stored securely using industry-standard encryption methods. We comply with all relevant data protection regulations to ensure the security of your and your customers' information.
