Problem
Automotive parts distributors and workshops rely on manual, error-prone processes to identify and order the correct parts, leading to fitment mistakes, costly returns, and slow procurement cycles. Inbound enquiries require time-consuming validation against vehicle specifications, and fragmented workflows across ordering, inspection, and communication channels further reduce efficiency.
Solution
Carpata offers an AI-powered parts catalogue and procurement platform that automates the entire parts journey, from catalogue search to order fulfilment. The system uses an OE-derived database covering mechanical, body, and trim parts, with AI-driven taxonomy and multi-source verification to ensure 98% fitment accuracy. Inbound requests are automatically validated and answered via existing channels like email and WhatsApp, while integration with ERP and ordering platforms consolidates purchasing into a single digital workflow. The platform also embeds parts data and pricing into vehicle inspection workflows, enabling instant, accurate quotations for FNOL, eVHC, and end-of-contract scenarios.
Target Audience
Primary customers are automotive parts distributors, workshops, and fleet operators seeking to streamline procurement, reduce returns, and improve operational efficiency across the supply chain.
