AI-first BDC platform built for autonomous lead handling

Purpose-built for dealership BDC operations.

Relay BDC is an AI-first BDC platform built for autonomous lead handling. It's strongest in AI safety, multi-agent architecture, confidence gating, and CRM integration — purpose-built for dealership BDC operations with deep qualification workflows.

Relay BDC Key Differentiators

Seven things Relay does that no other BDC platform ships today — built into the core of the product, not bolted on.

01 — Differentiator

Multi-Agent AI Architecture

Miles uses specialist agents — Qualifier, Inventory Expert, and Closer — coordinated by an Orchestrator. Competitors rely on single-agent or rule-based approaches that break down on complex conversations.

  • Orchestrator routes each turn to the right specialist
  • Specialists own their own tools, prompts, and response schemas
  • Per-dealership multi-agent flag for staged rollout
02 — Differentiator

AI Confidence Gating

Every AI action is scored for confidence with configurable thresholds. Default 0.6; high-stakes actions require 0.7+. Actions in the 0.7–0.85 band are tagged "borderline" for human spot-checking. No competitor offers this level of granularity.

  • Per-tool-call confidence scoring
  • Configurable thresholds per action type
  • Borderline tagging for structured human review
03 — Differentiator

7-Layer Safety Guardrails

The most comprehensive AI safety pipeline in the category. Every message Miles sends passes through seven independent checks before it reaches a customer.

  • Pre-flight escalation rules
  • Input validation
  • System-prompt rules
  • Action confidence gating
  • Output filtering
  • Confidence-threshold auto-escalation
  • Post-hoc tagging for review
04 — Differentiator

Open MCP Endpoint

Relay exposes an open Model Context Protocol endpoint so dealerships can build their own integrations on top of Miles. No competitor offers this — you're never blocked by a vendor roadmap.

  • Dealership-side custom automation without forking
  • Bring your own tools into Miles' native tool-use loop
  • Standard protocol — works with any MCP-compatible client
05 — Differentiator

Shadow Mode Pilot

A structured four-week onboarding program with human review before Miles goes fully autonomous. Reduces risk and builds dealership trust from day one.

  • Week 1 — Shadow mode: Miles drafts, humans send
  • Week 2 — Single channel or single location, live
  • Week 3 — Expand across channels and locations
  • Week 4 — Review metrics, confidence bands, and escalations
06 — Differentiator

Semantic Inventory Search

pgvector-powered vehicle matching from conversation context. Miles recommends real vehicles from your actual inventory based on what customers describe in natural language — not keyword lookups.

  • OpenAI embeddings with pgvector + HNSW cosine similarity
  • Matches on intent, not just trim levels and VINs
  • Auto-embeds new inventory as it syncs from your CRM
07 — Differentiator

Data Portability

Your data stays yours. On request, our team exports your leads, conversations, appointments and consent records as CSV or JSON, and deletes your dealership's data when your contract ends.

  • Export on request, as CSV or JSON, within 30 days
  • Complete deletion at contract end
  • Consent records included for your own compliance files
