Automotive
Automotive runs on data spread across dealers, manufacturers, and suppliers who rarely share the same systems. Real-time platforms that pull it into one place turn that fragmentation into a genuine advantage.


The risk here isn't a single named regulation; it's the real-time accuracy and integration complexity required to make fragmented data usable in one place. A single, well-defined AI tool on a platform already in place fits well as a fast, fixed-scope configuration under Katalyst Launchpad™. A real-time reporting or data platform spanning multiple systems calls for the fuller architecture of a custom-engineered approach under Katalyst Custom™.
The end result was extremely sophisticated, amazingly vibrant and uniquely designed web site.
Excellent management and project creation.
KitelyTech really embodies what a great Tech company is all about.
Overall, the communication is what really impressed me. We were able to work with them whenever we needed, and they answered all of our calls, emails, and texts pretty much right away. That was extremely helpful to us.
The final product exceeded all of my expectations
We would not have our core business without KitelyTech creating such a wonderful product with us.
I’d absolutely recommend them.
I came into this engagement as a sceptic. We had been through a failed implementation with a previous vendor and I had high standards for what evidence of competence looked like before I would trust a partner with our core systems. This team earned that trust progressively — through the quality of the discovery documentation, the rigour of the technical proposals, the consistency of the sprint deliveries, and ultimately the stability of the production system. I no longer lead with scepticism when recommending them.
In terms of project management, I thought they did a fantastic job. There were several times when we reached out with a wide range of requests or questions, and they got back to us with answers pretty quickly. The whole speed of the project was good.
That’s one of their value-adds; they’re effective.

An automotive dealer group ran its white glove rental program for OEMs and suppliers by phone and email. KitelyTech audited, refactored, and rebuilt the platform on .NET and Vue.js with guided vehicle selection, order tracking, and a shared delivery calendar.
THE PROBLEM
An automotive dealer group runs a white glove short term rental program for OEMs and Tier One suppliers doing competitive research. Customers drive, inspect, and often disassemble the vehicles. Every rental carries its own specification, support level, delivery window, mileage allowance, and price, and several departments order at once against one shared credit balance. The dealer group originally ran the program by phone and email, with no shared view of what vehicles were already scheduled for delivery.
WHAT WE BUILT
KitelyTech ran a code audit of the existing platform in parallel with requirements gathering, then redesigned, refactored, and upgraded the application on a current .NET and Vue.js stack. The rebuilt portal guides a customer through cascading selection across 6 model years, 17 makes per year, and up to 11 trim levels per model, drawn from the client's vehicle data source. The application carries each request through a proposal and order workflow from request to revised to approved to delivered and returned, and adds a delivery calendar, role-based access for owners, admins, and users, and event-triggered notifications.
AI email triage & response agent

Dealer and customer email arrived faster than support could sort it. Triage was manual, the context needed to answer lived in systems someone had to open one at a time, and the quality of a reply depended on who picked up the message.
An AI agent that classifies intent and urgency on arrival, retrieves context from internal systems, and drafts a brand-compliant response. High-risk cases route to a person. High-confidence replies send automatically, and the confidence threshold governing auto-send is set by the business, so the line between drafted and sent moves as trust in the system grows. Every action is logged for audit.

Data engineering: real-time sales & inventory reporting architecture

Sales and inventory data lived in more than seventy places: internal systems, dealer feeds, supplier reports, logistics providers. Any question that crossed two of them took days, and by the time you had an answer, it was already wrong.
A data engineering engagement. KitelyTech engineered a new data architecture across the manufacturer's existing systems, unifying more than seventy internal and external sources. Seventy sources meant seventy definitions of the same field, so the work was as much schema mapping and conflict resolution as pipeline construction. Sales, inventory, wholesale analysis, supply chain logistics, and dealer transit time now read from one live view.

Custom vehicle delivery platform

For a premium brand, delivery day is the emotional peak of the purchase, and the manufacturer's legacy system had nothing for the customer living it. It trained staff on preparing vehicles and interacting with buyers, but the buyer's own experience of the wait was silence.
A custom delivery platform that runs from point of purchase through delivery and beyond. Customers get exclusive access to track their vehicle's milestones through production and transit, a delivery day built as an experience, feature education for the car they chose, maintenance expectations, and their documentation in digital form. The wait becomes part of the ownership.

Imaging application modernization

An enterprise automotive imaging application had aged past its architecture, and nobody wanted to replace what could be recovered.
Reverse engineering and a full audit of the existing code to understand its structure before touching it, then refurbishment for performance and new features to meet modern standards, delivered as a Windows desktop application and hybrid mobile apps for iOS and Android. Inheriting someone else's codebase and improving it is its own discipline, and this is what it looks like.

AI NLP agent inside the dealer portal

Dealers needed answers that lived across multiple systems, and getting them meant knowing which system to search and how.
An AI natural language agent embedded directly in the dealer portal. Dealers ask questions in plain language and get direct answers with the supporting artifacts attached: downloadable PDFs and deep links into the source systems, so the answer arrives with its evidence.

AI proactive service-delay notification agent
.avif)
A vehicle sits at a dealership past its promised date because parts are late or a technician hit something unexpected. Nobody tells the customer, because telling the customer requires somebody to notice first. Across a franchise network, that silence becomes downtime, negative reviews, and eroded trust.
An AI agent that monitors repair orders and service events in real time, detects promise-time breaches and parts delays, sends templated status notifications to dealers and customers automatically, logs everything to the case, and escalates high-risk situations. It integrates with dealer systems where they exist and provides a fallback portal for smaller shops.
