Keyloop to buy Motortech AI in bid to drive dealer operational efficiency

Keyloop to buy Motortech AI in bid to drive dealer operational efficiency. Keyloop has struck a deal to buy the UK based automotive AI firm Motortech.ai. It said the move will accelerate its programme for embedding new AI functionality into Fusion, its Automotive Retail Platform (ARP), helping dealers improve their operational efficiency and derive more value from customer interactions. Motortech.ai has developed an AI customer agent, AIME that replaces traditional website forms and manual replies via other channels with real time conversational tools. AIME can search and compare vehicles for prospective customers, qualify leads, handle questions, administer trade-ins, log vehicle reservations and process finance quotes and agreements. Tom Kilroy, CEO, Keyloop, said: "I'm extremely excited that Motortech.ai will soon become part of Keyloop. "We're already planning how their proven technology will be integrated throughout our tech stack, so that whenever and however a customer interacts with a dealer, both parties will feel the benefits." Gerard Thatcher, CEO and Founder of Motortech.ai, said: "This is an important new development for motor retailers and OEMs, as it unites the conversational power of our AI solutions with Keyloop's unrivalled data insights and market-leading enterprise solutions. "This agreement means we'll be able to accelerate deployment of a full conversational layer for dealerships and OEMs, providing better outcomes for customers and dealers alike." The acquisition is subject to regulatory clearances, which are expected to be received in the first quarter of 2026. Keyloop bills itself as a global leader in automotive technology, supplying software solutions to over 70% of the UK's top 200 dealer groups.
