Running legacy DMS? Louie plugs right in.
legacy DMS is the most common DMS among independent dealers. We've seen every version — Drive, Drive+, the dominant DMS provider Cloud. The integration layer is built. Real-time DMS sync requires a vendor partner agreement — CSV import works today, live API sync activates on agreement transfer.
✅
Inventory sync — vehicle records, stock numbers, cost, age
✅
Deal data — deal status, gross, F&I products, lender
✅
Customer records — contact info, purchase history, equity positions
✅
Accounting bridge — GL data, floorplan, payables

Read-only. Louie never writes to your legacy DMS — your DMS stays unchanged.
legacy DMS users ask us:
Do I need the legacy DMS's permission or a 3rd-party agreement?
No. Louie reads your legacy DMS data export directly — the same file you can pull yourself. No vendor agreement required.
How long does the legacy DMS connection take?
Day 1. Email brian@louieauto.com — we'll walk you through the export configuration in under 30 minutes. Auto-refresh runs nightly after that.
Does it work if I leave legacy DMS later?
Yes. Your Louie data is yours regardless of what DMS you use. Switching DMS means a new connector — your history stays intact.
AI routing model reweights nightly based on your real deal outcomes — not generic tier averages.
