The company's core offering is the Sensus Digital Dealer Cloud, a SaaS platform built around Titan DMS (a cloud-based dealer management system with modules for showroom, CRM, workshop, parts, and accounting, adapted for Arabic-language workflows and UAE/KSA e-invoicing compliance), a Digital Retailing layer (bespoke dealer websites with SuperSearch, website personalisation, 360 WalkAround vehicle spin, and AutoTransact e-commerce), Service Center technology (Snap-on autoVHC electronic vehicle health check, technical animations, Service Center AI Agent), and a 2025-launched AI Agent ecosystem (Website, Voice, Outbound, and WhatsApp agents coordinated through a central AI Hub). Sensus is the authorized MENA distributor for Snap-on Business Solutions' autoVHC and an exclusive regional channel for Impel/SpinCar's 360° merchandising platform.
The company operates a B2B enterprise sales motion targeting OEM networks, dealer groups, service chains, and automotive marketplaces, evidenced by named customers including Al-Futtaim, Arabian Automobiles Company (Nissan/INFINITI/Renault distributor), Al Masaood, Al Ghandi Auto Group (Tamam Used Cars), Grease Monkey Auto Care KSA (up to 150 sites), Dubi Cars (470+ showrooms), and Dubizzle. Revenue mechanics combine annual subscription licensing (Titan DMS, autoVHC, Digital Retailing), recurring add-on module fees (SuperSearch, 360 WalkAround, Virtual Booth, AI Agents), and implementation/training professional services. The pricing model is quote-based by dealership size and module bundle, with no public pricing.
