The Problem

Highly advanced MLOps. AI prices 89% of cars. Inferred continuous/batch training with automated monitoring and mature Price Index integration.

The Frontier Solution

Agentic pricing. Continuous CI/CD for models with hourly updates. Automated drift detection triggering autonomous retraining.

The Value

€20.6M gross profit uplift after €2.5M program cost.

Where the value comes from

Increased Gross Profit

Model drift leads to lost GP on hot stock and high aging on cold stock

Automated lifecycle management / MLOps with agentic drift control

KPI delta: Lower MAE, higher inventory velocity

Reduced inventory holding costs / interest expense

Manual recalibration cycles are too slow for market velocity

Continuous CI/CD for models with hourly updates

KPI delta: Recalibration frequency (Monthly -> Hourly)

Calculation basis: Calculated on 2020 scale: 457k units, €756 GPU. 1.95% unit lift + 4.0% margin uplift. At current 2025 scale, incremental impact is €58.94M.
