Updates

Smart Publisher updates now let you restrict which vehicles are sent to third-party platforms like Autogate, Drive, Facebook, and Autotrader — on a per-listing basis. Stop paying to advertise stock where it doesn't need to be, and take full control over your listing spend.

We've made two improvements to how dealerships manage notifications. Event-driven notifications let you trigger alerts based on specific activity — for example, notifying the Pre-Owned Sales Manager at a location the moment a used car test drive is booked there. And on any landing page, you can now create notifications targeted to specific users directly from the page itself, without digging through settings.

Dealer Studio Mobile App version 2.6.0 is now live, bringing a smoother and more powerful experience for your dealership. The app now includes full tablet support with optimised layouts for iPad and Android tablets, making it easier to manage daily tasks on larger screens. We’ve also introduced a dedicated Appointment Calendar, giving you a clear, organised view of bookings while surfacing today’s pending appointments directly on the home screen so nothing gets missed.

Every transcribed call now comes with an AI-generated summary right in the lead view (and Phone Calls sheet). You can see what happened, why they called, and how “hot” the lead is — in ~10 seconds, no audio scrubbing needed.

Buying signals — quick-glance chips for: – Purchase timeline – Finance interest – Trade-in – Test drive – Decision-maker – Budget – Vehicle of interest

The DS App is now fully optimised for tablets, giving your team a larger, more flexible workspace to manage tasks on the go. Enjoy improved layouts, easier navigation, and a more comfortable viewing experience designed specifically for bigger screens—perfect for sales staff, service teams, and anyone who needs more room to work efficiently from the showroom floor.

Our new AI-powered Background Blur plugin lets you instantly blur distracting surroundings in vehicle photos, with full-blur or rear-only modes. Dealers can now control number plate auto-processing, run both blur plugins in a single API call, limit blur tools to specific locations, and manually trigger background blur from the photo manager with an easy before/after preview.

Keep customer privacy protected without the extra work. Our AI automatically detects and blurs number plates across your stock images in seconds, saving you time while keeping every listing clean, compliant, and ready to publish.

Dealer Studio now supports uploading a secondary ID photo when processing test drives and loan cars.

You can see how long visitors actively engage with your site and connect that behaviour to the enquiries they submit. It’s a simple update that gives you clearer intent signals, better content optimisation, and stronger lead quality.

You can now control exactly where offers and key messages appear, preview changes in the dashboard, and optimise visibility for maximum impact.
