Why Protect IQ

The problem today

  • Sales and F&I teams must memorize dozens of warranty and insurance options
  • Product rules, exclusions, and pricing change frequently
  • Poor recommendations increase buyer confusion and erode trust
  • Inconsistent guidance leads to missed attachment and lost margin
  • Buyers see a lump-sum price that doesn't connect to how they manage operating costs

What Protect IQ delivers

  • Guided recommendations embedded directly in the deal workflow
  • Adapts automatically as products, pricing, and rules change
  • Clear reasoning behind every recommendation, shareable with the buyer
  • Consistent, compliant menus across every store in the network
  • TCO projection in the buyer's native cost language: per mile, per hour, or per day
Four input sources

Protect IQ balances expertise from across the deal.

Structured questions, qualification logic, and optimization rules combine inputs from every stakeholder to generate a ranked, right-sized protection menu.

01

Buyer Inputs

Usage profile, duty cycle, operating conditions, risk tolerance, and budget sensitivity. These inputs also set the cost denominator (per mile for trucks, per operating hour for equipment) so pricing aligns with how the buyer manages costs.

02

Asset Context

Equipment type, value, age, configuration, known failure patterns, and risk profiles for the specific machine.

03

Partner Intelligence

Warranty and insurance provider rules, product fit guidance, exclusions, and coverage strengths by use case.

04

Dealer / OEM Config

Preferred products, margin and attachment priorities, network-level consistency, and local compliance rules.

In the deal

From qualification to recommendation in one step.

Protect IQ runs inside the Trnsact Protect Menu. No separate tool, no extra tab. It evaluates, ranks, and explains in real time as the deal is built.

Buyer qualification

Five questions. Thirty seconds. Fully personalized menu.

Each buyer answer directly changes what products are shown, how they're ranked, and how cost is presented (per month, per day, per mile, or per operating hour). Click any option below to see the recommendation logic.

5 core questions · ~30 sec 5 optional refinements · ~15 sec 4 cost views: monthly · daily · per-mile · per-hour
Total cost of ownership

Present coverage the way buyers think about costs.

Truck operators think in cost-per-mile. Construction contractors think in cost-per-operating-hour. Owner-operators think in daily overhead. A monthly payment number alone doesn't connect to how buyers manage their equipment costs.

Protect IQ translates protection pricing into the buyer's native cost language (per mile, per operating hour, or per day) and projects total cost of ownership over the life of the asset so tradeoffs are visible before the buyer signs.
