Deal status tracker for dealership back offices to track title work and financing.
Why it can work
- Documents scatter across spreadsheets, notes and the DMS
- Loan date errors and missed lienholder filings strand buyers
- Buyers repeatedly call for status when paperwork is unclear
Watch out
- Needs DMS access or adds manual entry
- Dealers may resist changing how they track deals

The job to be done
Track missing title work and deal documents
When missing title work and deal documents are scattered across spreadsheets, notes, and the DMS, dealership back-office staff need one reliable view of each deal's status, so they can get buyers titled and financed correctly without repeated follow-up calls.

7 complaints from 1 community
Car purchases get delayed for hours because the dealership finance office is backed up with manual processes that could be automated.
A dealer filed the title without the credit union as lienholder, leaving the lender without a title and the buyer unsure whether the dealer's delay is negligence.
A dealer filled in loan dates wrong, so the credit union never completed the loan and the buyer's financing rate and approval are now uncertain months later.
Show all
A remote out-of-state buyer cannot get title paperwork processed, so the temp tag expired and the dealer stopped responding while the buyer keeps paying on the car.
Dealerships struggle to track missing title work and deal documents, often using spreadsheets or notes instead of the DMS.
A buyer has not received sales tax check or registration paperwork after a dealer mailing error, and the trade-in loan still shows a payment due.
A dealership repeatedly failed to process a title transfer across states, leaving the buyer stuck for months with no plates and no clear status.
