About ShiftPilot AI

ShiftPilot AI is an AI-powered dealership operating system — a controlled operating layer that connects dealership CRM, inventory, deal desk and finance-readiness, document and e-sign, service, and communications workflows in one place, with AI assistance that stays under human review.

Who we are

ShiftPilot AI is a software company building an operating layer for automotive retail. The product is used inside the dealership by the people who run the store day to day: dealer principals, general managers, sales and BDC teams, finance managers, service advisors and managers, and the group leadership that oversees multiple rooftops.

ShiftPilot AI was founded by Mikhile Tracey, Founder & CEO, who leads the product direction and architecture of the platform.

We are not a marketing agency, a lead vendor, or a data broker. The platform is the product, and the dealership owns its data inside it.

What ShiftPilot AI does

It connects the workflows a store already runs — lead follow-up, Customer 360, tasks, inventory, deal desk and finance readiness, documents and e-sign, service inspections and operations, communications, manager controls, and reporting — so the work happens in one place with one record of what happened.

The AI layer drafts, summarizes, prioritizes, and surfaces opportunities. It does not act on customers by itself. See how ShiftPilot AI assistance works and the product overview.

Who it serves

Single-rooftop dealerships that want one system instead of a stack of disconnected tools, and multi-rooftop dealer groups that need consistent process and comparable visibility across stores. Role-based access means each person sees the work that belongs to them, and managers see across the floor.

Role-specific examples live on the use cases page.

What dealerships aim for

  • Faster and more consistent lead follow-up
  • More appointment opportunities
  • Fewer missed opportunities
  • Better manager visibility across sales and service
  • Clearer dealership workflows and accountability
  • Controlled, human-reviewed AI assistance

These are the outcomes the product is designed around. They are goals, not guaranteed results, and they depend on how a store adopts the workflows.

What we do not claim

  • ShiftPilot AI does not claim to replace a dealer management system or any named vendor platform.
  • ShiftPilot AI does not perform live credit pulls, lender decisions, DMV submissions, or DMS synchronization on its own; those depend on approved third-party providers.
  • Message delivery, payment processing, ad publishing, market valuations, and external e-sign activity require provider credentials, contracts, configuration, or approval.
  • ShiftPilot AI does not hold SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI, or HIPAA certification, and does not guarantee revenue, ROI, or specific results.

Our security posture is described on the security page and the trust center.
