Exploring AI in Dealerships: A Sneak Peek at the Upcoming NADA Show in New Orleans

The 2025 National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show is gearing up to take center stage in the vibrant city of New Orleans. While AI will undoubtedly be the buzzword on everyone’s lips, it’s not the main theme—it’s simply a tool in the larger conversation about dealership innovation. Amid the chatter, one standout development promises to revolutionize dealership operations: Data Driverz.

Introducing Data Driverz: The First Operational Data Platform for Dealerships

At Data Driverz, we’re redefining how dealerships approach their daily operations. As the first Operational Data Platform (ODP) in the automotive industry, we focus on internal dealership workflows and key operational metrics. Our platform connects your dealership’s daily key operational data into a single, efficient lens for clarity and better decision-making. With Data Driverz, dealerships can finally address the pressing questions that impact their success:

• Are my leads working?
• Do I have the right cars in inventory?
• Are my employees working the leads to their fullest potential?
• What cars are in demand now, and how can I act on this insight?
• What’s my per-vendor ROI?
• How effective are my lead management and close rates?
• What zip code offers my highest ROI?

And much, much more.
