DealerKit has been Highly Commended in the AI Product category at the Car Dealer Power Awards 2026.

The dealer management system provider has been recognised by retailers for its investment in artificial intelligence, with its expanding AI suite helping dealers work more efficiently and make better use of their data.

The recognition comes after a standout year for the business, which has seen rapid growth alongside the rollout of new AI tools across its dealer network.

It is the latest honour for the rapidly growing firm, which has also received prestigious Car Dealer Recommends status last year.

Reacting to the latest prize, Matt Cook, creative director at DealerKit, said: ‘Being Highly Commended for our AI products is a fantastic achievement for DealerKit and a real validation of the work we have been doing.

‘Over the past year, we have been developing and trialling the first phase of the DealerKit AI suite across our dealer network. To be recognised in this category shows that the tools we are building are not just exciting in theory, but are genuinely delivering value for dealers in the real world.

‘For us, AI is not about jumping on the latest trend. It is about creating practical, powerful tools that help dealers work smarter, save time, improve processes and make better use of their data.’

He added: For suppliers, they are a reminder that the best recognition comes from consistently helping dealers succeed.’

The past 12 months have been exceptional for the business, with hundreds of dealers moving to the platform and the company doubling the size of its team across support, onboarding, development and customer success to keep pace with demand.

Looking ahead, DealerKit plans to continue expanding its AI capabilities, with Cook adding: ‘DealerKit has always been about more than software. It is about helping dealers run better, more efficient and more profitable businesses, and that will remain at the heart of everything we do as we continue to grow.’
