Interactive ROI · Annual

What Birdseye is worth to your operations

A dashboard tells you what happened. Birdseye tells you what to do next. Set one rooftop’s real volumes, choose how many rooftops you run, and watch the annual value it protects stack up against its price — underwritten on published industry benchmarks. Skeptical? Turn the model down until you believe it.

Readout · Where the money comes from

The base case

Recon delays· 771 used × 2.0d × $32
$49,344

Shows every vehicle’s stage, time in stage, bottleneck, responsible party, and target vs. actual recon time.

Aging & pricing discipline· 771 used × $75
$57,825

Flags aging risk, inactive pricing, declining gross-per-day, poor mix, slow movers, and transfer opportunities.

Deals & F&I drift· 1,726 retail × $40 PVR
$69,040

Compares stores, managers, lenders, products, penetration, PVR, and trends — small declines surface before month-end.

Internet & sales conversion· 1.0/mo × $4,000
$48,000

Identifies lead-to-sale deterioration by store, source, team, or period — isolates where opportunities fall out.

Fixed operations· $9.7M × 0.5% × 50%
$24,220

Surfaces RO volume, revenue per RO, labor production, productivity, and store-to-store performance once service data is connected.

Birdseye Command — 1 rooftop
− $23,988 / yr
Break-even
Birdseye pays for itself if it trims just 1.0 day of recon across the group in a year — before a single other line counts.

Underwriting basis

Every assumption, and where it comes from

Recon

Cox Automotive’s 3-day recon benchmark; holding cost $32/day. Base case trims a typical 5-day actual to the 3-day benchmark — just 2 days back.

Front-end gross

Working averages $1,200 used / $1,800 new front-end per unit — the aging line preserves just $75 of that.

▼ 27% used · 38% new below the Q1 2026 public-retailer marks ($1,648 · $2,881)

Q1 2026 public-retailer results

F&I per unit

Working average $1,500 F&I per retail unit — the drift line recovers only $40 of that PVR.

▼ 43% below the $2,627 public-retailer average

Fixed-ops margin

50% gross margin, mid-point of the 45–55% reported range, on a 0.5% service-sales improvement.

McKinsey

Honest math. These are modeled estimates from the assumptions you set above, not measured guarantees — that’s why every dial is yours to move. Volumes are entered per rooftop and scale with rooftop count on both sides — a five-store group shows five times the value and the banded five-rooftop price (plan cost bands down for additional rooftops: 2–3 at 90%, 4+ at 80%). Each line claims a deliberately conservative slice of its published benchmark. The real proof is your own data: point Birdseye at a year or two of your DMS history and it shows your actual recon times, aging bleed, PVR drift, and conversion gaps before you commit.
