Power your inventory performance, all in one view

  • Real-time pricing and demand insights 

LiveMarket* insights are now integrated directly into the Inventory List Page for auto dealers, giving you real-time pricing and demand insights without switching screens. That means faster, smarter pricing decisions, made with greater confidence. 

  • Boost visibility straight from inventory list

With one-click promote, auto dealers can instantly boost listings to more buyers without leaving the Inventory List Page.  It’s a faster way to help get your priority inventory seen by more buyers on the carsales network — with less effort and more impact.

Inventory distribution rules are already part of AutoGate. Soon, auto dealers will be able to manage them yourself directly from your inventory page.

Help boost contact rates with in-app calling

September 2025 – You call a fresh lead back, but they don’t answer. Unknown numbers get screened, callbacks get delayed, and momentum is lost.

  • Encourages more answered call and fewer voicemails left
  • Even if they miss your call, buyers see who called and which car
 
You’re already calling from your mobile, this way just does it smarter. Simply make the call through the iOS AutoGate app to unlock the benefits.

Avoid missing a critical call detail

July, 2025 – You can now revisit call conversations with  AI-powered summaries†† on call-connect enquiries, making it easier to spot buying signals, objections and next steps.

  • Follow‑ups can be better tailored to each buyer’s needs 
  • Every conversation builds on the last, all within AutoGate
