The pack

What this OS adds for your industry.

Each module shows what it can do today. Proposed means designed, not built.

Simulated · Example stock; no dealer system connectedExampleSimulated

Stock and listings

Turns each vehicle record into an agent-ready listing (structured fields and schema.org data) and flags wording that could mislead before it goes up.

A flag is a prompt to check or reword, not a finding that an advert breaks the law.
