Data X

One clean record of every vehicle, customer, part and site — held in the region you chose.

Intelligence X

The numbers the business runs on, live, with the same definition on every site.

AI X

AI inside the product at the point the decision is made — rank, predict, price, draft, answer.

Your data. Your workflow. Automotive AI that does the job, not the demo.

→ How AF-X uses your data→ What AI native means

AF-X bolts on. It does not rip out.

Keep the system you run the business on. AF-X connects to it, reads from it, writes back to it, and adds the layer that was missing. Nobody has to migrate to get started.

Your current systems stay the record; AF-X connects once, reads and writes back, and customers and teams feel the difference

One layer between AF-X and your systems.

Products never talk to your systems directly. They call the AF-X Integration Layer, which handles authentication, mapping, retries and audit. Swap a DMS or a payment provider and the products above it do not change.

SELECTED SYSTEMS & PROVIDERS

Built to work with the automotive ecosystem.

Examples of systems and providers AF-X can connect with. Availability depends on product, market and agreed implementation scope.

HOW A CONNECTION IS MADE

How an integration goes live.

A named AF-X integration lead owns the work end to end. Your team’s involvement concentrates in discovery and verification. Timing depends on the system and the data scope, and is agreed at the end of discovery.

  1. 01SCOPE

    Discovery

    We map your systems, data owners, volumes and the workflows each platform needs. Nothing is assumed from a logo.

    You get: Integration blueprint and data-scope sign-off.
  2. 02BUILD

    Mapping & build

    Connectors are configured or built against your sandbox. Field mappings and error handling are agreed with your team.

    You get: Mapping document and sandbox connection.
  3. PROOF POINT
    03PROVE

    Pilot connect

    One site, live data, read-first. Write-back stays disabled until the pilot behaves as designed.

    You get: Pilot connection on a single site.
  4. 04SIGN OFF

    Verify

    Your team and ours reconcile records, test failure and retry paths, and confirm security and access scopes before anything scales.

    You get: Reconciliation report, security sign-off and go-live checklist.
  5. 05OPERATE

    Go live & monitor

    Roll out across locations with monitoring, alerting and a hypercare window owned by your integration lead.

    You get: Runbook, monitoring dashboard and named contact.

READY TO BUILD. SAFE TO OPERATE.

01

API documentation

Published after technical validation.

02

Sandbox environment

Test against realistic data before production.

03

Webhook catalogue

Every event AF-X emits, with payload schemas.

04

Named integration lead

One accountable owner from discovery to hypercare.

SECURITY & GOVERNANCE

Built to pass your security review.

Integration is where most risk lives. These are the controls that apply to every connection, regardless of platform or provider.

Security & trust →
01

Least-privilege scopes

Every connection uses the narrowest data scope agreed in discovery. Scopes are reviewed at renewal.

02

Encryption in transit and at rest

TLS 1.2+ for every call; encrypted storage for any cached or queued data.

03

Full audit trail

Every read and write is logged with actor, time and payload reference, exportable to your SIEM.

04

Enterprise identity

SSO via SAML or OIDC, SCIM provisioning and role-based access mapped to your directory groups.

05

Hosting region at contract

Data residency is agreed and documented before go-live, not discovered afterwards.

06

GDPR by design

Data-processing agreement, retention schedules and subject-request tooling across every integration.

07

Signed, replayable webhooks

Events are signed, idempotent and replayable so your systems never miss or double-process a change.

08

Failure visibility

Failed syncs surface in the product and to your team; nothing fails silently.

Speed, and a great deal less complexity.

100% cloud · AI native · outcome and performance driven

What you avoidNo migrationNothing is moved off the system you run the business on. There is no cut-over weekend and no parallel period to staff.
What you avoidNo data freezeThe business keeps trading while the connection is built. Nobody is asked to stop entering deals or jobs for a fortnight.
What you avoidNo retraining on the coreThe people who live in the DMS, GMS or ERP carry on living in it. Only the layer they were missing is new.
What you avoidOne connection, every productA system is connected once. Every AF-X product you add later uses the same connection, so the second product is faster than the first.
Nothing stops while you startThe business keeps running on what it runs on today. No migration weekend, no parallel period, and the replacement decision stays yours — later, or never.
One version, in your regionAF-X is cloud only. A new site is a configuration rather than an installation, which is the reason bolting on is possible at all.
The AI has something real to work onThe AI inside each product reads your own history — your ramps, your leads, your parc — which only works once the systems holding it are connected.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What you may want to know before we connect.

Practical answers about your existing systems, delivery time, security and who looks after the connection.

Does AF-X replace our existing DMS, GMS or ERP?

No. AF-X connects with the systems you already run, adding new products and workflows without requiring a core-system replacement.

Which systems can AF-X integrate with?

AF-X can connect with automotive platforms, enterprise systems, data providers and specialist tools through available APIs, webhooks, file exchanges and agreed custom connections.

What if one of our systems does not have a modern API?

We assess the available connection methods and recommend the safest practical approach. This may include scheduled file exchange, middleware or a controlled custom connector.

How long does an integration usually take?

Timing depends on API readiness, data quality, security requirements and the number of workflows involved. A focused connection may take a few weeks; broader integrations are planned and delivered in phases.

How do you protect our data during integration?

Access is limited to the data required for the agreed workflow. Authentication, permissions, encryption, logging and data handling are defined during the integration assessment.

Who is responsible for building and maintaining the connection?

Responsibilities are agreed before delivery. AF-X can build and support the connector directly or work with your internal team, system provider or implementation partner.

What happens when a connected system changes?

AF-X monitors supported connections through its ongoing Run service. If another provider changes an API or data structure, we assess the impact and coordinate the required update.

Can we start with one integration and add more later?

Yes. AF-X can begin with the connection required for the first product or workflow, then add systems and data flows as the rollout expands.

WHERE TO START

Whatever you run today, we will tell you what connects to it.

Book a demo for the whole estate, or start with one product on the system you already have.
