In the week of June 17th, AutoChat hosted a highly successful hackathon, bringing together our talented team to innovate and push the boundaries of automotive AI technology. Over several days, participants worked tirelessly to develop groundbreaking features that will soon be integrated into our platform.

Highlights of the Hackathon

  1. Voice Capabilities: Engage in full conversations with our digital assistant using only your voice, making customer interactions seamless and natural.
  2. Workshop Appointments: Our team developed a streamlined process for booking workshop appointments entirely through a large language model (LLM), enhancing efficiency for both customers and dealerships.
  3. LLM Model Parameters: Extensive testing of various LLM model parameters was conducted to find the perfect fit for different use cases in the automotive industry, ensuring our solutions are robust and versatile.
  4. Vision Capabilities: We introduced vision capabilities that allow our digital assistant to understand the webpage a visitor is viewing, using this context to enhance conversations and provide more accurate assistance.

Afternoon Discussions and Future Plans

In addition to the morning presentations, the team engaged in productive discussions on integrating these new capabilities into our roadmap. We are excited to bring these features live over the next few months, further solidifying AutoChat’s position as a leader in AI-driven solutions for car dealerships.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to innovate and enhance our offerings.
