Managing dealer location data across hundreds of automotive group websites has become a critical challenge for market intelligence providers. Every month, dealer groups open new locations, close underperforming sites, or relocate existing franchises. Missing these changes means delivering outdated data to clients who depend on accuracy.
The cost of manually maintaining this data is staggering. One automotive data provider recently calculated they were spending over $2,000 monthly in labor costs to have staff check 750 dealer websites for location changes. That's 80+ hours of repetitive work that could be automated.
Here's how Browse AI transforms dealer location tracking from a manual burden into an automated, reliable system that scales with your business needs.
The challenge: Manual dealer tracking at scale
Automotive market data providers face unique obstacles when tracking dealer locations:
- Volume overwhelms manual processes - with 750+ dealer group websites to monitor monthly, even a dedicated team struggles to maintain accuracy.
- Inconsistent website structures - every dealer group displays location data differently, making standardization difficult.
- Frequent changes go unnoticed - dealers open, close, or relocate regularly, but manual checking often misses these updates.
- Resource drain on valuable staff - data analysts spend days on repetitive checking instead of generating insights.
- Client trust erodes with errors - one missed dealer closure can damage credibility with automotive industry clients.
The solution: AI-powered dealer location monitoring
Browse AI revolutionizes how automotive data companies track dealer networks. Instead of manual checking, our AI-powered robots monitor each dealer website automatically, extracting location data with 99.9% accuracy.
Intelligent data extraction at scale
Our robots adapt to each dealer group's unique website structure. Whether locations are displayed in tables, lists, or interactive maps, Browse AI extracts:
- Dealership names and franchise brands
- Complete street addresses
- Phone numbers and contact details
- New locations added to the network
- Closed or relocated dealerships
The platform handles pagination, dropdown menus, and even sites requiring authentication - all without manual intervention.
Automated change detection
Browse AI doesn't just extract data - it intelligently compares each month's results to identify exactly what changed:
- New dealerships highlighted
- Closed locations flagged
- Address changes tracked
- Franchise additions noted
This means your team receives actionable intelligence, not raw data requiring manual comparison.
Reliable monitoring that adapts
When dealers redesign websites, our AI adapts automatically. No need to rebuild extractors or update scripts. The robots learn new layouts and continue to deliver accurate data without missing a beat.
