Detailed explanation of each automated stage in the workflow.
Customer completes trade-in form with VIN, mileage, condition details, and photos through dealership digital channels. System captures all vehicle information and customer contact details.
System automatically retrieves comprehensive vehicle history, accident records, service history, and ownership details using the provided VIN. Market data and comparable sales are also gathered.
AI algorithms calculate preliminary trade-in value based on vehicle history, current market conditions, mileage, and reported condition. Multiple valuation sources are cross-referenced for accuracy.
System determines if automated valuation meets confidence threshold or requires human review based on vehicle complexity, damage reports, or market data gaps. High-confidence appraisals proceed automatically.
For vehicles requiring manual review, system automatically schedules appointment with certified appraiser and sends confirmation details to customer. Inspection checklist is generated based on initial findings.
Final trade-in value is calculated incorporating any physical inspection results and current inventory needs. Offer validity period and terms are automatically determined.
Formal trade-in offer is sent to customer via email and SMS with detailed valuation breakdown, validity terms, and next steps. Sales team is notified for immediate follow-up.
