Independent dealers are the backbone of the used-car market. They’re also priced out of every modern tool the big franchise stores take for granted. We built Aerolot to fix that — one agent at a time.
Miami-built · Independent-first · No VC bloat
Origin
A short arc: the stuck stack, the AI cost curve, building agents first, and the job we still measure against. Scroll the journey.
The Problem
We watched dealer after dealer juggle 5 separate vendors — a $1,500/mo website, a $500/mo chatbot, a $500/mo pricing tool, a $300/mo CRM, plus the F&I tools they had to bolt on. Tools that didn’t talk to each other. Tools built in 2008.
The Insight
AI doesn’t cost what it used to. A conversation that would have required a $40k/yr BDR now costs two cents. A description that took an hour now takes a tenth of a second. The technology to replace $30k/yr of dealer software now fits in a $999/mo subscription.
The Approach
Most “AI” you see in dealer software is a chatbot duct-taped to a 15-year-old CRM. We built Aerolot the other way around — 12+ specialized AI agents at the core, with the platform engineered to give them the data they need to actually be useful.
The Mission
Every independent dealer should have the same toolset as a 50-store franchise group. That’s the whole job. We measure success by one number: how many dealers we can keep independent, profitable, and growing.
How we build
Built for single-lot and small multi-store dealers — not enterprise procurement cycles.
Website, CRM, F&I, inventory, and AI agents share one data layer. No franken-stack.
Month-to-month. Honest pricing. We earn the relationship every billing cycle.
Founder
No reseller layer. No outsourced support queue. When you sign up, you get the founder's direct line — and someone who has worked the lot, not just the pitch.

Over a decade working alongside car dealers — and a deep love for the business. Moved to Miami in 2024 to build Aerolot full-time, embedded with independent dealers and rebuilding the day-to-day until the friction was gone.
