The Carlutions digital marketplace revolutionizes the automotive industry by bridging the gap between shoppers, brokers, and dealerships with data-driven insights and seamless inventory connections.
A comprehensive look at how we transformed automotive deal-making into a connected, data-driven mobile app experience.
Carlutions approached Go Tech Solutions with a vision to modernize how brokers, dealers, and shoppers connect in the automotive space. The car-buying and trading process has long depended on disconnected calls, paperwork, and guesswork, leaving brokers without visibility into deal status and dealers without a reliable channel to manage incoming requests. Carlutions needed a mobile app that could centralize every request, approval, and notification into one transparent marketplace.
Automotive brokers and dealerships typically operate through fragmented communication, scattered emails, phone calls, and manual spreadsheets, with no unified way to track a deal from submission to closing. Brokers had no single view of which requests were approved, pending, or cancelled, and dealers had no streamlined system to review purchase, trade, or sell requests at scale. Both sides needed real-time visibility into deal status, along with instant alerts whenever a deal moved forward, stalled, or closed.
Go Tech Solutions designed and developed the Carlutions mobile app, a broker and dealer ecosystem built around real-time deal intelligence. The app opens with a performance dashboard, then gives brokers a structured request management system, an instant notification feed, and a dedicated received-requests log for dealers. We focused on a clean, color-coded interface so every deal's status, accepted, rejected, in-progress, or closed, is understood at a glance.
The mobile app opens on a Dashboard screen presenting two key activity counters at the top in green and orange cards, giving brokers an immediate snapshot of active performance. Below this, an Activity log section tracks ongoing metrics such as Request Acceptance and Estimated Times, each shown with a circular progress indicator. A bottom summary panel rounds out the screen, keeping high-level performance and recent activity within a single view.
The Requests screen opens with three status counters across the top, Approved, Pending, and Cancelled, each shown in a distinct color for instant recognition. A search bar sits just below for quickly filtering deals. Each request card lists the broker name along with Request ID, Year, Make, Model, and Color. Contextual actions appear on the right of each card, a Message center button for active conversations, a red Cancel action for declined deals, or a Resend action for deals needing a follow-up push.
The Notifications screen delivers a real-time feed of deal updates, each entry color-coded by outcome. A green card confirms a deal was Accepted by a named broker, a red card flags a deal that was Rejected, and navy cards report a deal Closed Successfully or a Status changed: In-Progress update. Every notification carries the Deal ID, vehicle make and color, plus a precise date and time stamp.
The Requests Received screen gives dealers a structured table view of every incoming request, with a toggle at the top to switch between Purchase/Trade Requests and Sell Request. The table lists Request ID, Customer Name, Requested Date, Status, Year, and Make, with status entries like Pending and Rejected displayed in color for quick scanning. Pagination controls at the bottom let dealers move through large volumes of requests without losing context.
Every feature was built into the mobile app to solve real automotive marketplace challenges and simplify how brokers and dealers manage deals.
The Home dashboard surfaces key activity counters at a glance, alongside an Activity Log tracking metrics like Request Acceptance and Estimate Times, giving brokers an instant pulse on overall deal performance.
A dedicated Requests screen organizes every submission into Approved, Pending, and Cancelled counters at the top, with a built-in search bar so brokers can instantly locate a specific deal.
Each request card displays the broker name, Request ID, Year, Make, Model, and Color, alongside contextual actions, Message Center, Cancel, or Resend, giving brokers full context and control without leaving the list view.
The Notifications screen delivers instant, color-coded alerts for every deal milestone, Accepted, Rejected, Closed Successfully, and Status changed: In-Progress, each tagged with the Deal ID, vehicle make, and timestamp.
The Requests Received screen lets dealers switch between Purchase/Trade Requests and Sell Request views, ensuring incoming deal types are never mixed together in a single undifferentiated list.
Dealers review incoming requests in a clean tabular layout, Request ID, Customer Name, Requested Date, Status, Year, and Make, with color-coded status text and pagination for managing high request volumes.
A consistent bottom tab bar, Home, Requests, Notification, and Menu, keeps every core action one tap away throughout the entire mobile app, reinforcing a smooth and predictable navigation pattern across broker and dealer views.
