Case Study: Cox Automotive achieves faster, more accurate inventory management with Anyline mobile VIN scanning

How Cox Automotive Improved Their Inventory Management with Mobile Scanning

Cox Automotive, a global provider of automotive solutions, needed to speed up dealership floor‑plan audits and eliminate error‑prone manual VIN entry across its RMS-enabled inventory workflows. To address slow, paper‑based processes and poor data quality, Cox Automotive integrated Anyline VIN scanning into its dealer tools to digitize inventory capture at the point of sale.

Anyline’s smartphone OCR VIN scanner lets users capture VINs anywhere on a vehicle (no barcode required), works offline, and saves a verification image for proofreading. The Anyline integration delivered measurable impact — cumulative time savings that cut hours from monthly audit work and data accuracy of over 99% — shortening user flows into RMS systems, improving decision‑making and ROI, and freeing staff for more customer‑facing tasks.
