In this episode, Brian Pasch sits down with Danny Zaslavsky, co-founder of Vincue, to explore why Vehicle Lifecycle Management (VLM) is becoming an essential strategy for modern dealers. They discuss how Vincue’s platform replaces fragmented tools with a unified system for planning, acquiring, managing, and selling inventory—all powered by real-time market signals and AI. From rethinking appraisals and trade offers to reducing recon surprises and improving team alignment, this episode reveals how VLM isn’t just a technology shift—it’s a mindset shift toward smarter, more profitable retailing.
In this episode, Brian Pasch speaks with Danny Zaslavsky, Co-Founder of VINCUE, about how the platform is helping dealers move beyond disconnected tools and legacy systems toward full vehicle lifecycle management. Built by dealers for dealers, VINCUE aims to unify appraisal, acquisition, pricing, marketing, and selling into a single, modern platform.
VINCUE defines vehicle lifecycle management as the automotive version of supply chain management — backed by data science, AI, and modern process alignment. From acquisition to exit strategy, VINCUE centralizes decision-making so teams across the dealership operate with unified data and consistent goals.
VINCUE replaces 4–6 legacy systems that dealers often use to manage inventory, pricing, syndication, and appraisals. Instead of relying on fragmented data and outdated tools, the VINCUE platform allows dealers to plan, buy, manage, and sell vehicles in one environment — improving profitability and streamlining operations.
Legacy appraisal tools often drive race-to-the-bottom pricing. VINCUE’s system factors in competitor listings, OEM build data, market demand, and even existing CRM lead signals to guide smarter, more profitable appraisals and acquisition decisions.
VINCUE focuses on strategic integrations — not bloated feature sets. For example, the new integration with Rapid Recon allows appraisers to see real-time reconditioning estimates, improving gross accuracy and transparency between variable and fixed ops teams.
Through a new integration, dealers using VINCUE can now request a live, backed offer from CarMax within 30 seconds during the appraisal process. These offers are the same ones consumers receive directly and come with no transportation fees or arbitration.
VINCUE now integrates with AutoAlert to enable real-time trade-in and equity data during service visits. Service RO data and prior vehicle ownership history can trigger offers and move more customers into newer vehicles earlier in the trade cycle.
VINCUE is embedding AI to expose operational signals throughout the inventory lifecycle — from pricing recommendations to merchandising to smart appraisals. Dealers don’t have to search for insights in static reports — the system learns and surfaces them automatically.
As dealership groups expand and markets diversify, VINCUE is helping leadership stay aligned across locations and departments. Its modern architecture and integration-first approach make it possible to manage inventory with precision while empowering newer staff to operate like seasoned pros.
