We build the AI that runs automotive retail.
Selling and servicing cars is conversation work: advising a buyer, booking a service slot, chasing a quiet lead, answering at 11pm in the customer's own language. Salesteq builds AI agents that carry that work end to end, in production, inside the systems dealers already run.
The team
Four people. We build the models, not a wrapper on someone else's.
Small on purpose. The platform does the work the headcount used to, and every one of us sits in customer conversations.

Founder and CEO
Viktor Andreas
Two-time founder. Enterprise sales across DACH and the Middle East. In every first customer conversation.

Speech and voice
Dr. Nickolay Shmyrev
Inventor of Vosk, the most deployed open speech engine in the world, 500 million installs. Twenty years of speech recognition.

Models and agents
Osama Abdelaal
TU Braunschweig. Owns our own model training, the agents and their evaluation, every prompt that reaches a customer.

Head of engineering
Roman Savchuk
The platform, the knowledge system, and every DMS integration, Keyloop and Autoline included.
Plus a chief revenue officer with thirty years of enterprise sales and a chief financial officer. Questions go to [email protected].
Where we operate
Live in production
Salesteq agents run customer conversations for BMW, MINI, Ford and Hyundai retail in Saudi Arabia and for dealers in Europe. Live at the group behind ~20% of the Saudi car market. About 1,200 customer conversations a day, around the clock, with roughly 70% of the work completed by AI and clean handover to people for the rest.
What it means for your people
Not layoffs. Capacity. The AI covers the repetitive traffic around the clock, your people handle the judgment calls. The platform works with Keyloop, Autoline and your DMS. It does not ask you to replace anything.
Built for enterprise
European infrastructure
Hosted in the EU with GDPR discipline and data-residency options. Every tenant is isolated: your inventory, your customers, your conversations stay yours.
Auditable by design
Every conversation, booking and handover is recorded and reviewable. Your team sees what the AI did and why, and can take over any conversation at any moment.
Works with your stack
Keyloop, Autoline, WhatsApp Business, Genesys, telephony and your CRM. Appointments land in the live DMS diary, not in a parallel tool your team has to reconcile.
Proven on the hard cases
Gulf-dialect Arabic voice calls, mid-sentence language switches, real inventory questions. 17.4% word error rate on real BMW service calls where general-purpose engines score 21.5% and worse.
Research
The research behind the product.
Salesteq is built by a team with PhDs in artificial intelligence and original work in speech recognition, transfer learning and agent architectures. That is why the hardest parts of automotive retail, dialect Arabic voice and reliable long-running agents, are the parts where we measure best.
Speech and Voice AI
Real-time speech recognition and synthesis for dialect-heavy, code-switching conversations. Benchmarked on real service calls, not lab audio.
Agentic Systems
Multi-step autonomous reasoning with error recovery and human handover, engineered for month-long production runs rather than demos.
Human-AI Collaboration
Trust-building agent behavior, oversight patterns, and the operating model that lets a small team supervise a large AI workload.
