ARGUS360
The independent audit and revenue layer
for automotive retail.
Argus360 plays defense from outside the store, looking in. It is built to document what a dealership actually said and did, grade it against policy and law, and put the proof on the record. The report card is the product.
A grade a principal can act on.
Every audit cycle ends in a report card: a graded, sourced account of how the store performed on the phone, on the floor, and in the paperwork. It reads like a document, not a dashboard, because it is built to be handed to a general manager, a compliance officer, or counsel.
The principal decides what to do with it. Argus360 supplies the evidence, not the verdict.
Every finding carries its receipt.
Argus360 is built to run AI-conducted mystery shops and audits across a store's real customer interactions. Each finding is designed to be paired with a timestamp, a transcript excerpt, and the rule it was graded against. Nothing in the report asks to be taken on faith.
Recording is done lawfully by design. The platform's consent framework tracks one-party consent rules state by state, with counsel review built into the dataset.
Defense built to pay for itself.
Findings are designed to feed a recovery pipeline: missed appointments, mishandled leads, and process leaks that cost the store real revenue. For multi-rooftop groups, a network rollup is designed to show every store on one screen, graded on the same standard. Both are coming next; the audit and scoring path is complete.
- Recovery pipeline, coming next: built to turn findings into recaptured revenue
- Network rollup, coming next: built to grade every rooftop against one standard
- Positioned alongside compliance platforms, not against them
Designed to land in 30 days.
Designed to land in 30 days and go live in under six weeks, contract to first Report Card. Argus360 requires no in-store installation, which is why the timeline is short.
In beta at the founders' store. General availability anticipated Q4 2026.
The enforcement climate changed in 2026.
Executives are now being named personally in complaints. In the Manchester City Nissan matter, the dealership agreed to $4 million in consumer redress under a stipulated final order announced August 19, 2026, and two individual defendants had judgments of $4.89 million entered against each of them in October 2025, stipulated as consumer injury and suspended on sworn financial statements. A dealership that can prove what it said is in a different position from one that cannot.
Built as the independent layer.
Argus360 is in beta at the founders' own store, with the design partner program forming through The Dealer's Concierge and general availability anticipated in Q4 2026. The audit and scoring path is complete; Recovery and the Network view are coming next. It complements the compliance platforms dealers already use rather than competing with them, and it holds its own evidentiary standard: proof, on the record.
