CarStory Launches Dealer Sales Prediction Leaderboard
CarStory’s new, AI-driven predictive analytics interface was designed to show dealers how their sales will rank in their local markets.


CarStory Leaderboard is a new, free service designed to help dealers predict future sales and track their progress.
AUSTIN, Texas — CarStory, the automotive AI platform from Vast, today announced the general availability of CarStory Leaderboard, a free service designed to give auto dealers a view into the future. Using AI and machine learning, the CarStory Leaderboard predicts when every car will sell in a local market and then ranks dealerships based on the predicted turn.
“CarStory Leaderboard is an exciting way for dealers to monitor their local market,” said John Price, CEO of Vast. “Using our AI-driven predictive analytics dealers can get a peek into the future and track their progress from week to week.”
CarStory Leaderboard uses the same advanced technology built into CarStory Insights, the industry-first tool that predicts when cars will sell and for how much. Armed with this information, dealers can ensure they maximize turn and profits all at the same time, according to the provider.
