DriveCentric API

DriveCentric is an AI-powered automotive CRM that car dealerships use to manage leads, customer engagement, and sales workflows across text, email, and live video. An unofficial API lets you programmatically pull leads, customers, opportunities, vehicles, appraisals, and communication activity—and push updates like new leads, status changes, tasks, and outbound messages back into DriveCentric.

What is DriveCentric?

DriveCentric is an AI-powered CRM built specifically for car dealerships to streamline lead management, customer engagement, and sales workflows. Dealership teams use DriveCentric to capture and qualify leads, run multi-channel outreach across text, email, and live video, automate follow-ups with AI agents, manage the sales pipeline from prospect to sale, and drive service and trade-in retention—connecting to their DMS, inventory feeds, and OEM programs through 100+ integrations.

Core product areas include:

  • Engagement Hub (core CRM and lead management)
  • AI Agents (automated 24/7 lead response and follow-up)
  • Integrated Communications (built-in texting, email, and live video)
  • Marketing Automation (targeted campaigns and prospect nurturing)
  • Mobile App (field access for sales representatives)
  • DMS & Data Integration (DMS, inventory feeds, OEM programs)

Common data entities:

  • Leads, Prospects, Sources, Campaigns
  • Customers, Contacts, Households
  • Opportunities, Deals, Pipeline Stages
  • Vehicles, Inventory, Appraisals, Trade-ins
  • Messages, Calls, Texts, Video Sessions, Emails
  • Tasks, Appointments, Activities, Users

The DriveCentric Integration Challenge

Dealerships run their sales floor on DriveCentric daily, but turning its portal- and mobile-driven workflows into API-driven automation is non-trivial:

  • Gated developer access: API access flows through a formal developer program and data agreements limited to approved vendors, so partnership sign-off is required before integration
  • Mobile-first data: Much of the rep workflow—messaging, video, and follow-up—lives in the mobile app rather than a documented public API surface
  • DMS and inventory entanglement: Lead, customer, and vehicle records are stitched together with DMS feeds and OEM programs, so IDs and lifecycle states span multiple systems
  • Multi-channel communication logs: Text, email, call, and live-video activity are captured per customer, each with its own timeline and metadata to reconcile
  • Per-dealership configuration: Pipeline stages, lead sources, user roles, and automation rules are tailored per store, so generic integrations break across rooftops
  • Authentication and session handling: Dealer logins and session continuity complicate headless automation against the CRM

How Supergood Creates DriveCentric APIs

Supergood reverse-engineers authenticated DriveCentric sessions and workflows to deliver a resilient API layer for your dealership—across leads, customers, opportunities, inventory, and communications.

  • Handles dealer login and MFA securely in a managed session
  • Maintains session continuity with automated refresh and change detection
  • Normalizes responses across leads, customers, opportunities, vehicles, and messages so you integrate once and rely on consistent objects
  • Aligns with per-store pipeline stages, lead sources, and user roles to ensure accurate, scoped access

Frequently asked questions

No. Supergood works against your existing authenticated DriveCentric sessions and entitlements, so you do not need to wait for formal developer-program or vendor data-agreement approval to start integrating your own dealership's data.

Yes. Supergood reverse-engineers the same authenticated surfaces the web and mobile apps use, so messaging, follow-up, and rep activity that primarily live in the mobile app are exposed through the normalized API.

Yes. Each store is profiled against its configured pipeline stages, lead sources, and user roles, so you can integrate one or many rooftops while preserving per-store configuration rather than forcing a generic schema.

Yes. Outbound messages are sent through the same channels DriveCentric uses and logged against the customer's communication timeline, so engagement stays unified in the CRM.

Supergood normalizes leads, customers, and vehicles while preserving the DMS, OEM, and inventory identifiers DriveCentric stitches together, so records reconcile cleanly across your connected systems.
