Title work opens itself the moment a car sells
You don’t open a ticket or set a reminder. When a deal is marked sold, the platform creates the title work automatically, stamps a 30-day default due date, and starts the clock. From there each title moves through a defined workflow you advance with a click — and the whole list buckets itself by how close it is to the deadline.
- Auto-created on mark-sold with a 30-day default due date
- Workflow: not started → application prepared → submitted → received → sent to lienholder → completed
- Kick-back and resubmit states for when a title bounces back from the state
- Every status change is logged to a per-title event history and the audit trail
An aging view that tells you which title to chase first
The title-work list scores each open title against its due date and sorts your work for you, so an overdue title can’t hide in a long list. It’s an operational tracker — the dates and statuses you act on — not an accounting ledger.
- Aging buckets: on track, due soon (within 7 days), and overdue
- Completed and cancelled titles drop out of the active aging view
- Unwound deals auto-cancel their title work instead of aging into a false “overdue”
- One list across your whole lot, filterable and exportable like the rest of the app
State forms, auto-filled from the deal
Create the title application straight from the deal and the platform fills the form from data you already entered — buyer, vehicle, VIN, odometer, addresses — then advances the title to “application prepared.” For Florida, that includes the real official HSMV PDFs; other states fall back to a generic HTML worksheet you can print.
- Florida: official HSMV PDFs (title, bill of sale, POA, odometer, lien, reassignment, out-of-state) field-mapped end-to-end
- Forms fill from the deal — no re-keying the buyer, VIN, or odometer
- Issuing-state aware: the available states follow your dealership’s location(s)
- Printable, downloadable document package alongside your generated closing packs
DMV title software FAQ
What the title tools do — and what they don’t.
Does it submit titles to the DMV electronically (EVR / electronic title & registration)?
No — and this is the most important thing to know. The “submit to state” step is status-tracking only: it records that you submitted, so the title moves through your workflow and ages correctly. It does not file electronically with the DMV, integrate with an EVR provider, or run NMVTIS inquiries. You still submit to the state your usual way; the platform keeps the paperwork ready and the status honest. Live DMV filing is a planned, vendor-gated phase that is not built yet.
Which states are fully supported?
Florida is mapped end-to-end: official HSMV PDF forms auto-fill from the deal. For every other state, the title application falls back to a generic HTML worksheet that fills from the deal and prints, but there are no official state-specific PDFs yet. If you operate outside Florida, you get the full tracking, SLA aging, and a printable worksheet — not your state’s exact official forms.
How does title work get created — do I have to start it?
You don’t. It is created automatically inside the same transaction when a deal is marked sold, with a 30-day default due date. If a deal is later unwound, its title work is automatically cancelled so it doesn’t sit in your list as a phantom overdue item.
Does it handle plate / tag transfers or registration?
No. The current scope is title work — preparing the title application, tracking it through the state, and recording the title number and issuing state when it comes back. There is no plate-transfer or registration workflow today.
How accurate is the Florida form auto-fill?
The field maps are deliberately conservative: text fields only, validated against the real AcroForm field names on each HSMV PDF. Checkboxes, radio buttons, and split-digit odometer boxes are intentionally left for you to complete by hand to avoid mis-fills. Always review every generated form before you submit it.
AutoDealer.io provides operational title-tracking tools and form-fill assistance for dealers. It is not a DMV, an electronic title-and-registration (EVR) provider, or a law firm, and it does not file titles or registrations with any state on your behalf. “Submit to state” tracks status only; you remain responsible for actual DMV submission, for verifying every generated form, and for compliance with your state’s titling, registration, and odometer-disclosure requirements. Official PDF forms are currently available for Florida only; other states use a generic worksheet.
