VINCUE Takes the Stage at the 2026 Modern Retailing Conference

VINCUE Takes the Stage at the 2026 Modern Retailing Conference

Published On: October 19th, 2026Categories: Events

Dealers don’t need another AI pitch. They need proof it pays back. On Monday, November 16 at 9:15 AM ET, VINCUE President & Co-Founder Danny Zaslavsky takes the stage at the 2026 Modern Retailing Conference (MRC) with a 30-minute keynote: “The ROI of AI: Investing in AI That Pays Back.” MRC runs November 15–17 at the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa.

Inside the keynote

AI is easy to buy and hard to measure. Danny’s session goes straight to the return: where AI makes a dealership money, and what separates AI that pays back from AI that just demos well.

The session is built around VINCUE Protos Intelligence, the First AI Native Inventory Intelligence Platform. Eleven AI agents work your inventory around the clock. They read more than 2,000 signals per VIN and put a ranked Morning Report in front of you with the decisions that move gross and turn. You walk in to answers instead of a scavenger hunt.

Why MRC

MRC is organized by Pasch Group, an automotive consulting and education company, and it’s built for dealers who want strategies they can use Monday morning. Over three days there are 30+ sessions and 60+ speakers across sales process, customer experience, first-party data, AI and automation, retention, and communication. Retail is changing fast. The dealers who adapt win, and a room full of operators comparing notes speeds that up.

Why we’re showing up

We invest in this industry because dealers are the reason we exist. Every VINCUE product starts with a dealer problem, and the best way to understand those problems is to be in the room where dealers talk about them. So we go where dealers are and connect with everyone, everywhere we go. MRC is one of those rooms, and we’re glad to support it again this year. We want it full.

Our Dealers Can’t Stay Quiet on Google

Launched VINCUE a couple months ago for our dealership as we were previously on vAuto. We love the pricing, software, and the support team is engaging with a lot of new features coming. It was a GREAT decision to switch from vAuto to VINCUE and we are very happy with the new software and support team.

New to the VINCUE family, and I’m very impressed with the immediate support provided by the team. Charlie Basham has been a key factor in getting the dealership started on a great path with the VINCUE system. He has been very responsive to my questions and has made sure I can navigate the key reports and understand the process used. Cheyenne Currier has also been very responsive with merchandising uploads needed by the dealership. I look forward to working with the VINCUE Team in the future.

Was previously with another provider for 16 years but now have been with VINCUE for 6 months and I absolutely love it and would never go back to my old provider. Even if you’re not considering making any changes right now, this is one I would look into and you won’t regret it! What I realized is how behind the times my previous provider is and I didn’t even realize it until I learned about VINCUE!
