Self Funded
Self Funded
Instead of immediately seeking external funding, the Founders made the bold decision to self-fund Automatrix’s initial development. They invested their savings and continued to work part-time in their other businesses to sustain the company’s early stages. This self-funded approach has given Automatrix a strong foundation built on real customer needs rather than investor expectations. This authentic, customer-first development process has created a product that truly resonates with dealership operations and positions the company for sustainable long-term growth.

Our Journey
From Necessity to Innovation: The Rise of Automatrix AI-Powered ERP
What began as an in-house solution to a growing problem has evolved into a groundbreaking, AI-powered ERP system transforming the automotive industry.
In 2010, faced with outdated and unsupported tools, the founder of Automatrix Dealer Software leveraged two decades of dealership experience to address inefficiencies within his own operations. Starting with custom-built calculators, projections, and simulators in spreadsheets, he created a solution that streamlined processes and centralized critical data.
This necessity-driven innovation didn’t stay in-house for long. As word spread among independent dealerships, it became clear that this tool could fill a much larger gap in the market. The early solution grew into Automatrix Dealer Software, a comprehensive Dealer Management System (DMS) empowering operators with control at their fingertips—accessible anytime, anywhere.
By 2018, the system had expanded to address the specific needs of the Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) industry. With each iteration, Automatrix refined its offering, staying ahead of market demands. In 2021, the platform underwent a major transformation, shifting to the cloud to embrace modern technology and scalability.
Today, Automatrix has evolved far beyond its origins. In 2024, the company is proud to unveil its AI-powered ERP system—a revolutionary tool designed to deliver unparalleled insights, efficiency, and control for dealerships. What began as a simple in-house necessity has become an industry-leading solution that empowers businesses to drive the future.
Automatrix isn’t just software—it’s the next generation of dealership management.
