Intelligence · exsto.ai
exsto.ai uses context already present in the exsto platform to assist operational work — inside the workflows your teams already use, with no separate AI tool to move into.
AutoAllocate
Built in, not bolted on
exsto.ai operates inside exsto processes, using the workflow context relevant to the task. Teams do not leave the work to use it.
Context
Customer, vehicle and job
The work already recorded in exsto.
Workflow
Existing exsto process
Workshop planning, VIDEO1st and sales enquiries.
Intelligence
exsto.ai acts inside it
Applied at the relevant step.
Continues
Work moves forward
In the same workflow, for the same team.
Context in. Intelligence applied. Work moves forward.
Live capabilities
Each capability works at a specific point in an existing exsto workflow — across Service and Sales — rather than in a separate AI tool.

AutoAllocate
AutoAllocate uses four inputs — work required, workshop capacity, technician availability and technician skills — to allocate the job inside workshop planning.
AutoAllocate
Representative example. The four inputs are the inputs AutoAllocate uses.
Why it matters
Before
Inputs checked by hand
The planner cross-references work, capacity, availability and skills.
AutoAllocate
Inputs converge
The same four inputs are used together, consistently.
After
Allocation in the plan
The allocation appears in the existing workflow.
AutoReview
AutoReview reviews the technician's spoken commentary in each VIDEO1st video and returns a score with feedback on the quality of the explanation.

“Front brake pads are down to around 2mm…”
AutoReview
Illustrative website values — not customer results or benchmarks.
What is assessed
AutoReview analyses what the technician says in the VIDEO1st video — how clearly and fully the work is explained to the customer. It does not assess what the camera sees.

In the process
Scores and feedback sit with the VIDEO1st video, so technicians and managers can understand the quality of each explanation within the existing process.

Purchase Intent Detection
exsto.ai can recognise genuine purchase intent within supported customer conversations and create a sales enquiry where one has not already been captured — helping ensure the opportunity reaches the Lead Inbox in exsto.Sales.
Inbound customer conversation
Purchase Intent Detection
Enquiry created
Lead Inbox
Not every conversation becomes an enquiry, and exsto.ai does not make the sales decision — the sales team owns what happens next.
One layer
Structured operational context, human communication and customer conversation are different problems. All are served by the same Intelligence layer.

Where it acts today
The Intelligence layer is platform-wide architecture. Today’s live capabilities act inside exsto.Service and exsto.Sales workflows.
Platform architecture
exsto.ai is the shared Intelligence layer, with capabilities added into appropriate workflows as they are developed. Current examples include AutoAllocate, AutoReview and Purchase Intent Detection — spanning Service and Sales.
Separate jobs
Acts inside workflows.
exsto.Insights
Dashboarding and reporting across connected exsto activity.
Your process
exsto.ai assists operational work rather than replacing the retailer's process.
Dealer groups & OEMs
The same intelligent workflows applied across sites, not left to individual habit.
Shared operational standards that scale from one site to a network.
Intelligence embedded in existing processes, using shared platform context — not another tool for teams to learn.
See AutoAllocate, AutoReview and Purchase Intent Detection working inside real exsto.Service and exsto.Sales journeys rather than in a separate AI tool.
