Stair-step money
Volume-tied OEM bonuses depend on hitting tier. CSI under target can wipe a single month of stair-step revenue.
$80K – $300K / mo at stake on one tier slip.

No case studies yet — we're sales-gated and pre-cohort. The math below is from the LOCKED set-rate model the founder built after 20 years on the floor. If you want it verified against your store, call him direct: 813-442-0253.
Appointments / rep / year

Set-rate move 18% → 34% on 100 leads/mo.
New gross / rep / year

At 35% close, $3,000 avg gross per delivered unit.
100 leads/mo×18% → 34% set rate×35% close×$3,000 avg gross
Force-multiplier, not a replacement. Your reps still own the close; Gladius just makes sure the calendar is full when they walk in.
The honest comparison
The villain isn't a competitor.
It's the gap.
Bots respond fast. Humans read people. Gladius does both — and stays awake while your team is home.

[CSI insurance · live exposure]
Most CSI damage happens
in the lead-response gap.
// exposure / month$80K–$300Ksingle tier slip · single rooftop
Nobody on the floor wakes up wanting to ignore a customer. The gap opens after hours, on weekends, at lunch. Gladius covers the gap so the score never bleeds.
// OUTCOME 02
OEM allocation
Your district manager grades CSI before units. Allocation moves with that grade, quarter over quarter.
Allocation flexes 5 – 15% on multi-quarter trend.
// OUTCOME 03
Floor reputation
One viral one-star about an ignored lead outweighs fifty five-stars about your service drive.
Most shoppers read 7+ reviews before walking in.
Ranges reference broadly-reported industry data. Your store's actuals show up in the first 30 days — measured, not assumed.
[objection wall · honest answers]
The four things every dealer asks.
No marketing-deck answers. Each one is a force-multiplier answer — your reps still close the deal, Gladius covers the gap.
// OBJECTION 01
Won't customers know it's a bot?
// ANSWER →
Maybe — and it doesn't matter. North of 70% reply to the second message because the voice is dealership-honest, not corporate-bot. People care about a fast, accurate answer, not who typed it.
// OBJECTION 02
What if the AI says something stupid?
// ANSWER →
Hard-coded crisis rails sit in front of every reply, sensitive scenarios bypass the model, and every line is checked against a forbidden-phrase list before send. When in doubt the AI hands off to your rep — that's the whole point.
// OBJECTION 03
I've been burned by AI vendors before.
// ANSWER →
Fair — that's why we're sales-gated, the founder's cell sits on this page, and the first 90 days are money-back. Pricing only escalates after Growth-tier results show up.
// OBJECTION 04
TCPA scares me. I can't afford a lawsuit.
// ANSWER →
Consent gate, quiet hours, DNC check, opt-out handler — built in, audited per message, fully logged. If you can't prove the send, we won't make it.
// FROM THE FOUNDER
// 20-YEAR FLOOR OPERATOR
SALES → F&I → GSM
I worked your floor
for twenty years.
Ricardo Gamon. Sales → F&I → GSM. Two decades on the floor before I wrote a single line of code for Gladius.
I built this because I couldn't watch one more dealership lose a $4,200 gross to a four-hour first response. The team can't be everywhere.
So I built the second shift that never sleeps — not to replace them, to back them.
// FOUNDING COHORT 2026 · ONE ROOFTOP PER REGION
// FOUNDING COHORT 2026ONE ROOFTOP PER REGION
Your competitors are losing leads
at 6:01pm tonight.
One dealer per region. One call to start. Ricardo's cell rings in under two hours — a 20-year operator who ran Sales, F&I, and the desk picks up and walks you through a live shift of your own leads.
