NADA 2026 was one for the books.
More than 1,400 dealers visited the Dealerslink booth this year, setting a new all-time record and reinforcing one clear message:
Dealers are actively looking for smarter, AI-powered inventory management.
During the busiest week of the year, dealers made time to stop, engage, and see what’s next. That level of booth traffic doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when the industry is ready for change.
The AI Suite Took Center Stage
At NADA 2026, Dealerslink unveiled one of the most impactful product releases in our 20-year history, our AI Suite, integrated directly with your inventory management system, the Suite provides proactive recommendations and includes:

Dealers aren’t asking for more tools. They’re asking for time back.

NADA 2026 wasn’t just busy — it was historic.

The energy at the booth reflected what we’re hearing across the country: dealers want efficiency, transparency, and smarter decision-making tools.
What Dealers Are Saying
J.R. Gillaspie from Corinth Auto Group shared this during a video testimonial at the show:
“We’ve been with Dealerslink 4–5 years, and the support is awesome. One phone call and they’re there.
I use it every day — sales status, managing my managers, seeing which vehicles are fast movers. It gives me total visibility.”
— J.R. Gillaspie, Corinth Auto Group
Hearing real dealer feedback live on the show floor reinforced what we saw all week, AI in dealership inventory management is no longer optional. It’s an imperative (operational).
