HOW TO EVALUATE
Four questions that settle it in ten minutes
Put these to any AI sales agent you are evaluating, ours included. The answers tell you more than any comparison table.
- 01
Is this exact unit still available, and what is the out-the-door price?
Tests whether the agent reads live inventory, and whether it can add up fees and tax rather than sending the buyer a phone number.
- 02
Can I see if I would get approved without hurting my credit?
Either it runs a soft pull and comes back with a range, or the buyer waits for a callback. The question most likely to end a conversation.
- 03
What is the monthly on this with 20% down?
Payment maths on the actual unit at the actual price, rather than a link to a generic finance page.
- 04
Do you have anything like it at another store?
Exposes whether the agent knows your group exists, or only the store it was installed on.
Frequently Asked Questions
Because dealers are going to compare us anyway, and a page written by whoever is selling hardest is not much use. Each comparison here is built from the other product's own published material, dated, re-checked quarterly, and each one says what Ekho has not shipped yet.
They are sourced, which is a stronger claim than fair. Every statement about another product links to where we got it, with the date we read it. If something is out of date or wrong, tell us and we will correct it.
Neither. It works the leads your team cannot get to, on your website and over text, and hands a rep a warm conversation. Your CRM stays the system of record, with a two-way sync where we support it and lead delivery by ADF where we do not.
No. The online purchase path is optional and off until you turn it on, per rooftop. Plenty of dealers run the agent purely to answer leads and book appointments.
Try it before you compare anything
