From Scrap Yards to Repair Shops — Bringing AI into the Automotive Aftermarket

This year, CorePal will be at Powertrain Expo 2026 in San Antonio, showcasing the latest progress of our SDG-AI technology.
Over the past year, we’ve been exploring a simple question:
Can AI help the automotive industry recover more value from the parts and components that already exist?
At scrap yards, SDG-AI can identify high-value used parts before they are crushed and recycled as scrap metal — helping give usable components a second life.
Now, we’re extending the same technology into auto repair shops.
By combining visual AI with vehicle and fitment data, we're enabling technicians to identify transmission hard parts more efficiently and find the right replacement parts faster.
♻️ Scrap Yard → Identify & Recover
🔧 Repair Shop → Identify & Replace
For us, this is more than an AI demo. It’s about building practical AI infrastructure for the automotive circular economy — connecting reuse, repair, and parts intelligence.
We’re excited to share our latest progress with the transmission and powertrain community at Powertrain Expo 2026, August 26–30 in San Antonio, Texas.
If you’re attending the Expo, I’d love to connect and exchange ideas.
