Platform
Customer experience, intelligence, operational domains and insight — connected around the customer and vehicle journey, rather than bolted together.
Domains
exsto.ServiceBooking, arrival, workshop activity, technician evidence and customer authorisation.
Select any part of the platform to see its role.
Four layers
Together they keep one customer journey connected — from the experience a customer sees to the insight a business needs.
01
Glovebox · Glovebox.Studio
Glovebox is the customer ownership portal — booking, check-in, evidence, authorisation and payment. Glovebox.Studio is the dealer and OEM website and public digital-experience product.
Retailer website
Ownership portal · EXST 001
02
exsto.ai
exsto.ai works inside platform workflows. AutoAllocate, AutoReview and Purchase Intent Detection act within the work, not in a separate tool.
AutoAllocate
Job allocated to technician
03
Service · CRM · Sales · Commerce
The operational areas where retailer teams manage the journey — four connected domains working from one customer and vehicle record.
exsto.Service
Aftersales operations
exsto.CRM
Customer engagement
exsto.Sales
Vehicle retailing
exsto.Commerce
Payments and plans
04
exsto.Insights
exsto.Insights is the dashboarding and reporting module — bringing connected activity together so the business can see the whole journey.
Domains
Service, CRM, Sales and Commerce are not separate products sitting side by side. They share the same customer, the same vehicle and the same record.
Aftersales operations
Booking, arrival, workshop activity, technician evidence and customer authorisation.
Customer engagement
Campaigns, follow-up, consent, data quality and long-term retention.
Vehicle retailing
Enquiries, stock, retailing and the hand-over experience.
Payments and plans
Payment, plans, subscriptions, quotes and accessory retail.
Shared capability
Menu Pricing is not a separate layer. It is a shared capability that can support several parts of the platform at once.
Foundation
Every layer draws on the same data, integrations, APIs and partner connectivity — so exsto can sit within the wider automotive technology environment.
Where the DMS sits
exsto is a Customer Engagement Platform, not a Dealer Management System.
The DMS remains an important operational source within many automotive businesses, but it does not need to define every customer interaction or every connected workflow. exsto sits across the customer journey and connects with supported DMS, OEM and partner systems through its shared Foundation.
This allows the Customer Experience, Intelligence, Domains and Insights layers to use relevant connected information while remaining independent of any single core-system provider.
The exact data, direction of connectivity and available actions depend on the DMS, APIs, agreements and deployment.
One journey, every layer
One example: a customer moves from vehicle enquiry, through hand-over and aftersales, into follow-up and insight — on one record.
