Solution features

Both the Hicron Predictive Analytics tool and the DriveApp application offer numerous amenities for both the dealer and car users.

DriveApp is an application that presents the user with basic diagnostic information about their car. It allows them to track various parameters of the car – including those that are not available on the dashboard. It also offers tips on fuel-efficient driving that help reduce fuel consumption.

From the dealer’s point of view, the most important capabilities of DriveApp are immediate information about any problems that arise during the operation of the car. The user can also contact the dealer regarding problems detected by the application’s diagnostic system.

Hicron Predictive Analytics collects and analyzes data from the application. This is how it learns the purchasing habits of a specific user and, more broadly, the users of a given model or brand. This allows for better market segmentation and creation of personalized offers that precisely match the customer’s needs.

Access to diagnostic data helps create more precise marketing campaigns. It also enables the identification of potential recurring problems and implementation of preventive car inspections.
