What is Kaia?

Kaia is Instacars' AI chat. It lives on your dealership's website (every page, not just vehicle listings), answers customer questions about your inventory 24/7, and books test drives directly into your calendar. It works in 20+ languages, so you're not losing shoppers because of a language barrier.

Beyond conversation and booking, Kaia can also give shoppers an instant trade-in estimate, a real-time payment estimate based on credit and rates, and the ability to invite a partner or family member into the chat.

Not a lead. An appointment.

How is Kaia different from a chatbot or live chat widget?

Most website chat tools either route to a live agent (who isn't available at 9pm on a Tuesday) or hand back a generic script that can't answer real inventory questions. Kaia knows your actual stock and can carry a full conversation: pricing, features, financing basics, comparisons, and then push straight to a booked test drive. No human required, no “someone will follow up.”

What happens if my current website chat can't answer a question?

That's usually the moment a shopper leaves for a competitor's site. Kaia is built to catch exactly that gap: if a visitor asks something your current tool fumbles, Kaia answers it and keeps the conversation moving toward a booking instead of a bounce.

Do I need to replace my current website or CRM?

No. Kaia embeds into your existing site. We're actively expanding platform support, and compatibility depends on your specific setup, so we'll confirm fit during your demo rather than assume it upfront.
