The problem

Your people lose hours hunting for information scattered across the DMS, inventory tools, OEM portals, shared drives, and email. Glean can unify all of it into one AI-powered search across the store, but standing it up right, connected to your systems with the correct access controls, is the hard part.

That work rarely gets done well. Big consulting firms price Glean rollouts for OEMs and national chains, not a single store or small group. Doing it in-house means your DMS admin learning Glean's connectors, permissions, and data model on the fly. So the tool either never ships or ships badly, and your team keeps jumping between systems.

What we do

Initial setup & connector configuration

We stand up Glean and connect it to the core systems your store already runs on, configured correctly the first time.

DMS integration: CDK Global & Dealertrack

We connect your dealer-management data into Glean, with hands-on integration experience in dealer environments running CDK Global and Dealertrack. Your team finds what they need without leaving search.

OEM corporate tool integration

The manufacturer-issued tools that don't auto-connect to your DMS, internal inventory systems, OEM financial platforms, manufacturer reporting portals, all get wired into Glean so your data lives in one place. We've delivered this kind of corporate-tool integration directly for OEM dealer networks, including custom bridges between manufacturer-issued inventory systems and the DMS platforms they don't natively talk to.

Custom reporting & dashboards

Role-specific views into data scattered across DMS, OEM systems, and internal tools, so sales, service, parts, and management each see what they need without hunting. We build custom dashboards across dealer financial, inventory, and operational data.

Role-based access for sales, service, parts & admin

Each department sees what it should, and nothing it shouldn't. Permissions mapped to how a dealership actually works.

Adoption training

We get your departments using it, not just licensed for it. That's the difference between a tool that pays off and shelfware.

30-day support, with ongoing available

A 30-day post-launch window is included so anything that surfaces in day-to-day use gets handled, with the option of an ongoing support and enhancement plan if you want a partner past go-live.

How it works

    We set up Glean, wire the connectors, and configure role-based access against your data.

  4. 4

    Adoption training

    2-3 days

    Department-by-department training so the store actually uses it from day one.

  5. 5

    30-day support

    A post-launch window to handle anything that comes up in real use, with the option to continue on an ongoing support plan.

Pricing

Typical engagement $30K-$50K depending on the number of integrations

Fixed price, quoted up front before any work begins, so you know exactly what you're committing to. Fewer connectors sit at the low end; multi-system rollouts with deeper DMS work at the high end.

Dealer-scale, done right

We're actively delivering Glean integration work today, and we've done significant dealer-side integration work, including custom integration with manufacturer-issued inventory management systems that don't natively connect to Dealertrack or CDK Global, OEM financial platform integrations, and custom dashboards across dealer operations. We bring those capabilities together as a dealer-scale Glean offering, built around what actually moves the needle inside a real dealership.

You get the connector, permissions, and data-model expertise that makes adoption stick, the cloud and integration depth (AWS) to wire it into the systems a dealership runs on, and a senior single point of contact from scoping through handoff. Fixed price, built for a single store or small group, not an enterprise rollout.
