AI BDC · CRM automation for CDK dealers

Every lead answered in seconds,
qualified, routed, and logged
in your CDK CRM — automatically.

RedLine7 is an AI BDC agent that works your inbound internet leads end to end. The moment a lead lands — from CDK eLead, Dealer.com, AutoTrader, or FordDirect — it’s captured, read, matched to the right rooftop by your inventory, answered with a vehicle-specific reply, routed to a salesperson, and written back into your eLead CRM. Built native on CDK Fortellis.

The lead lifecycle

One lead, start to finish — without anyone touching it first.

Speed-to-lead wins deals, and most stores lose it after hours and on weekends. RedLine7 runs the same disciplined process on every single lead, around the clock, then hands a fully documented opportunity to your team.

01

Captured

Every inbound lead from your providers — CDK eLead, Dealer.com, AutoTrader, FordDirect — is captured the moment it arrives. Nothing slips through, including after-hours and weekend leads.

02

Parsed & classified

The lead is read and structured automatically: customer, vehicle of interest, trade signals, and intent. Unrecognized formats are still captured, never dropped.

03

Matched to the rooftop

The vehicle is matched against your live inventory by stock number and VIN, so a multi-rooftop group routes each lead to the store that actually has the car.

04

Answered in seconds

An AI BDC agent replies right away with a vehicle-specific message — the exact unit, a link to its detail page, and a clear next step toward a visit. No fabricated pricing, ever.

05

Routed to a salesperson

The lead is assigned to the right rep on your team and offered to them with a one-click accept, so a person owns it fast.

06

Logged in your CRM

Every interaction is written back into eLead as a completed activity, a comment on the opportunity, and the customer record — so the salesperson opens the deal with full context already there.

What it does

An AI BDC that actually works the lead.

Not a chatbot bolted onto your website. RedLine7 plugs into the CRM your team already lives in, answers the customer like a sharp BDC rep, and leaves a clean record behind.

Inventory-aware rooftop routing

Observe mode

See it work your leads before it sends a thing.

Start in observe mode. RedLine7 captures your real inbound leads and drafts exactly what it would send — the first reply, the rooftop match, the salesperson it would route to — and routes those drafts to you instead of the customer. Nothing goes to the shopper, the salesperson, or your CRM until you say go.

When you’re comfortable, flip it live per rooftop. You stay in control the whole way.

Observe mode sends nothing to customers, salespeople,
or your CRM. You flip it live when you’re ready.

Built native on CDK Fortellis

It lives inside your eLead CRM — not beside it.

Reads your real leads

Pulls new leads, customer records, and activity history straight from CDK CRM through certified Fortellis APIs. The AI works the actual lead, with the customer’s real history in hand.

Writes back where it counts

Logs each interaction as a completed activity, drops a conversation summary on the opportunity, keeps the customer record current, and schedules follow-ups — all in eLead.

Your reps lose nothing

When the lead reaches a salesperson, the full thread is already in the CRM. They pick up a warm, documented opportunity instead of starting cold.

Pricing is provided by private quote based on rooftops, lead volume, integrations, and rollout scope.

Stop losing the lead before a rep ever sees it.
