In an industry driven by data and rapid technological advancements, having the right tools can transform dealership operations. In today’s episode of Driving Solutions, AJ McGowan, Co-Founder of AutoVision, reveals how their innovative platform is redefining inventory management, reconditioning processes, and AI-driven solutions. Dealers, it’s time to take your business to the next level.
McGowan discusses the transformative impact of AutoVision’s inventory management and AI capabilities on dealership operations. Over the past year, the platform has made significant strides, including integrating the ReconVision platform to streamline the end-to-end reconditioning process. McGowan emphasizes the importance of reducing “time-to-line,” helping dealers prepare vehicles for sale more efficiently and effectively.
One of AutoVision’s standout features is the deep integration with Reynolds’ suite of products, allowing for seamless data sharing and operational improvement. This integration ensures that dealers can make informed decisions about inventory, from pricing strategies to reconditioning investments.
A major focus of AutoVision’s innovation is artificial intelligence, which McGowan describes as a game-changer for the automotive industry. The platform’s AI tools, including the newly launched AI assistant “Avery,” simplify complex data analysis and automate repetitive tasks. Avery empowers dealerships to make better decisions, improve customer experiences, and focus on their core mission: selling cars and building relationships.
Key highlights include AutoVision’s merchandising AI, which enhances how dealers showcase vehicles online, and the platform’s ability to offer tailored stocking recommendations. McGowan explains, “With AI, we can provide dealers with actionable insights—like what to pay for a car, how long it might take to sell, and the ideal pricing strategy.”
Looking ahead, AutoVision plans to incorporate more strategic tools for dealership-wide performance analysis, addressing areas such as marketing and stocking strategies. Dealers attending NADA 2025 are encouraged to visit AutoVision’s booth to explore these advancements and meet Avery firsthand
"With AutoVision, we help dealers to find the best possible cars—whether they’re coming in from auction, trade, or buying off the street—and determine the right price. Now, with AI, it makes it simple. You can get straight to the answer instead of doing the analysis yourself.” – Aj McGowan
