The opportunity
Your Brand Guidelines Deserve More Than a PDF.
Automotive manufacturers invest significantly in brand identity, visual communication and consistent customer experiences.
Yet vehicle photography across dealer networks is often managed independently by individual locations. Different techniques, backgrounds, formats, perspectives and branding decisions produce inconsistent online presentations.
autofox helps close the gap between centrally defined standards and daily dealer operations.
Without central standardization
- Different photography styles across dealerships
- Inconsistent image angles and sequences
- Varying backgrounds and showroom environments
- Manual interpretation of OEM guidelines
- Repeated coordination with individual dealers
- Limited control over subsequent changes
With autofox
- Centrally configured OEM-specific presets
- Consistent image perspectives and sequencing
- Brand-aligned image processing and environments
- Repeatable workflows for participating dealers
- Central updates to approved configurations
- Scalable deployment across locations and markets
“Consistency should not depend on which dealership photographs the vehicle.”
OEM-specific presets
One OEM Standard. Applied Across Your Dealer Network.
autofox translates manufacturer-specific image guidelines into configurable presets, helping dealers create consistent, brand-aligned vehicle imagery without individually interpreting complex photography manuals.

Operational Efficiency
Repeatable processes reduce editing, coordination and administrative overhead.
International Scalability
Support for brand requirements across markets, languages and dealer structures.
Where required, regional customization can coexist with a centrally governed core standard.
OEM validation & approval
From Technical Alignment to Official OEM Approval.
We believe automotive manufacturers should be able to assess and validate the technologies their dealer networks use to represent their brands. autofox offers a structured collaboration framework to align image processing and photography configurations with OEM-specific requirements.
- 01
Define OEM Requirements
The manufacturer shares its photography guidelines, visual identity requirements, technical specifications and acceptance criteria.
autofox reviews the requirements with the relevant OEM stakeholders.
- 02
Configure OEM Presets
autofox prepares an OEM-specific configuration covering perspectives, image sequences, visual optimization, branding, showroom environments and export specifications.
- 03
Validate & Approve
The OEM evaluates sample outputs and agreed test scenarios, potentially including a pilot with selected dealerships. Adjustments follow the manufacturer's feedback.
Formal approval is subject to the OEM's own validation and authorization process.
- 04
Deploy & Maintain
Following approval, agreed configurations can be made available to participating dealerships.
Guideline updates are reflected in centrally maintained presets, with renewed approval where required.
Building the Foundation for OEM-Approved Vehicle Imagery.
Our goal is to establish formal technology alignment with automotive manufacturers, enabling approved image configurations to be used consistently throughout their dealer networks.
Where a manufacturer grants written authorization, autofox can communicate the applicable approval status to participating dealerships.
OEM-Aligned Configuration
Technical settings developed to reflect documented manufacturer requirements.
OEM-Validated Preset
A defined configuration reviewed and accepted by the manufacturer for an agreed scope.
OEM-Approved Technology Partner
An official designation, used only where the manufacturer has explicitly granted the corresponding approval or partnership status.
Illustrative statusOEM ApprovedRequires written authorization
For OEMs
The manufacturer retains authority over its brand guidelines and validation criteria.
For dealers
Participating dealerships use manufacturer-aligned configurations without creating and interpreting every technical setting themselves.
For autofox
A transparent framework for long-term collaboration between technology provider, manufacturer and retail network.
This is a proposed pathway for collaboration, not an established certification scheme. autofox does not currently claim approval, certification or endorsement by any manufacturer. Technical preset validation is distinct from official supplier certification.
Technology
Standardize the Image. Not the Entire IT Landscape.
autofox is designed to work with existing dealer operations and inventory management environments.
