Digital Dealer 2026Find out what AIsays about you.
A3 Brands is exhibiting at Digital Dealer 2026 in Detroit. Bring your dealership's name to the booth and we'll ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews about you while you stand there. You'll see the answer buyers see.
September 22–23 · Huntington Place, Detroit
Three questions we'll answer about your store.
Does AI name you at all?
We ask the questions a buyer in your market actually types, then count how often your store appears in the answer. Plenty of dealerships appear in none of them and have no idea.
Who does it name instead?
When AI recommends a dealership near you and it isn't you, it's someone. We show you which rival keeps taking the answer, and on which questions.
What would change it?
The gaps that move the number are usually specific and unglamorous: schema, extractable answers, review markup, inventory data. We tell you which of them apply to your store.
The 2026 agenda is built around four themes covering marketing, AI and data, digital retail, CRM, fixed ops and sales performance. The full schedule is published by Digital Dealer:

The 2026 agenda is organised around four themes covering marketing, AI and data, digital retail, CRM, fixed ops and sales performance. Digital Dealer publishes the full schedule at digitaldealer.com/conference-schedule and handles registration directly.
We're on the expo floor with a booth for both days. Come by any time during exhibit hours — no appointment, no sign-up sheet. If you'd rather lock in a time, book a call before the show and we'll have your audit ready when you arrive.
Your dealership name and city. That's it. We don't need access to your website, your CRM, your Google account or anything else. The audit asks public AI engines what they say about your store, so everything we run is what any buyer could see.
A few minutes for the live look. The full report — every question, which engines cited you, which rival won the ones you lost, and a ranked list of what would change it — is emailed to you afterwards.
Yes. The same audit runs from our AI Score tool and the report arrives by email. If you're attending the show, the booth version is worth it for the conversation rather than the data — the numbers are the same either way.
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. Each one crawls and cites differently, so a dealership site that reads perfectly to Google Search can still be invisible to three of the four. We check all of them and show you the split rather than a single blended score.
GALAXY is the framework A3 Brands built for AI search visibility: Brand DNA, Audience DNA and Competitor DNA. It's the same work we brought to NADA 2026, where the booth won Best Linear Booth out of more than 600 exhibitors.
