Release 2.1.0 - Horizontal

New Update 03.10.2025: Sell More Cars, Boost Efficiency, and Elevate Customer Experience

The Game Has Changed—Here’s How We’re Helping Dealers Win

The automotive industry is shifting fast. Customers expect a seamless, digital-first experience, and dealers need real-time data, automation, and marketing intelligence to stay ahead. That’s where Space Auto’s newest features come in—helping you sell more cars, streamline operations, and deliver a buying experience customers actually enjoy.

What’s New for Dealers? More Insights, Less Hassle, Higher Profits.

Smarter Navigation & UI: Find What You Need, Faster

A cleaner, more intuitive interface means less clicking, more selling. We’ve removed the unnecessary clutter, restyled the segment tabs, and ditched the “Beta” label—this is the full launch, and it’s built for speed.

The All-New Marketing Dashboard: Track, Optimize, Sell More

Data is only valuable if it helps you make smarter decisions. Our new Marketing Dashboard puts the most critical insights front and center:

  • Traffic & Conversion Tracking: See total visitors, sessions, and your conversion rate at a glance.
  • Lead Source Insights: Know which marketing channels drive the most qualified leads and closed deals.
  • Inventory Views & Engagement: Identify your hottest cars—most-viewed, favorited, and interacted with.
  • Geographic Reporting: Pinpoint where your buyers are coming from and adjust your strategy accordingly.
  • Search Term & Page Performance: See exactly what customers are looking for on your site.

Bottom line? Make better marketing decisions, faster. More conversions, more closed deals, and less wasted ad spend.

Automations That Work While You Sell

Time is money, and every minute spent manually chasing leads is a minute you’re not closing deals. Our new default automation templates do the work for you:

  • Appointment confirmations, reminders, and missed appointment recovery.
  • Auto-responders tailored by channel (email, text) and business hours.
  • Round-robin lead reassignment, with manager escalation for ignored leads.
  • Long-term follow-ups: Automate check-ins for anniversaries, birthdays, credit applications, and trade-in inquiries.
  • Real-time notifications when customers visit the dealership.

Set it up once—let Space Auto handle the follow-up.


What’s New for Customers? A Seamless, Secure, and Smarter Buying Experience

Frictionless Authentication & Security

No more frustrating logins or forgotten passwords. Our new hybrid authentication system allows customers to stay logged in on a single device and seamlessly verify their identity only when needed. If they switch devices or access sensitive information, an instant verification keeps their experience smooth and secure.

Lead Management & Cross-Device Continuity

Customers expect continuity—they don’t want to start over every time they visit your website. With our enhanced cross-device tracking, their saved cars, deals, and financing details follow them across devices. This means:

  • They pick up where they left off—no frustration, no lost leads.
  • You see complete customer activity data, even if they switch between desktop and mobile.
  • Customers move faster through the funnel, increasing conversions.

AI-Powered Q&A on Vehicle Detail Pages (VDP)

Customers ask questions—your website should have instant, intelligent answers. Now, shoppers can ask AI-powered questions directly on the VDP and get immediate, accurate responses.

  • No more waiting for a callback.
  • No more abandoned leads.
  • More informed buyers, faster decisions, and higher closing rates.

The Future of Car Buying Is Here

For Dealers:

  • More leads. Our marketing dashboard helps you optimize every campaign.
  • More efficiency. Automations cut the busywork so your team can focus on selling.
  • More closed deals. Real-time customer insights make smarter follow-ups easy.

For Customers:
