VIPAR Heavy Duty Family of Companies · Preferred Technology Partner

Build an AI-empowered sales team at the click of a button.

Tromml’s award-winning technology is built specifically for aftermarket and heavy-duty distribution teams. Whether you start with Minecart or AI Training, your membership in the VIPAR Heavy Duty Family of Companies gets you member pricing built for the way you already work.

See the value of your field team.

Every day your reps learn key intel. We capture that intelligence and turn it into knowledge and strategies.

A counter conversation about DEF pricing. A fleet manager mentioning they’re evaluating a new vendor. A shop asking about warranty turnaround on brake components. Your reps hear this every day, in the field and at the counter.

Most of it never makes it past their own memory.

The problem is reps were hired to build relationships, not fill out forms. With Minecart, we make it easy for reps to capture notes, plan their day, and even flag opportunities as they happen.

How it works

Every conversation makes the next visit sharper.

Talk

A quick voice note right after the stop. No forms, no admin.

Minecart structures it

Turned into a clean record, tied to the account, follow-ups flagged automatically.

Rep walks in ready

Before the next visit, they already know what happened last time, and what's still open.

Every visit, sharper than the last.

For the sales manager

See coverage across all territories, without asking anyone for a status update.

Sales managers are asked to do more with less. Finding what actually needs attention matters more than ever.

Minecart gives managers visibility into issues, opportunities, rep insights, and even campaign performance, so rep activity stays aligned with management priorities.

Evaluating feedback on a new rebate program? Analyzing the “why” behind a performance drop? Making sure a stock order gets submitted? Minecart makes it easier for managers to:

Know which accounts are going quiet before it hits the numbers
See which reps need help, and why, in seconds
Coach from real activity, not a hunch

For the rep

Make every visit count.

Minecart is the easiest way for reps to make the most of every day, and every visit.

One voice memo updates the account, flags what matters, and tracks every follow-up. Reps walk into the next meeting already knowing what to bring up.

Automate visit schedule and prep
Report activity without forms or call reports
Catch slipping accounts and monitor opportunities

Minecart pricing

Starting at $500/month + $100/rep

“

I walked in knowing very little about AI beyond what I’d heard on the news. I was concerned about data security and data ownership. I wasn’t sure what AI use cases might exist in my organization. Lauren did a fantastic job explaining the basics of prompt and context engineering while giving examples of real world use cases relevant to my industry [heavy duty commercial vehicle aftermarket]. The experience was hands-on, utilizing a secure “sandbox” environment Lauren provided where I could view and fine-tune the AI output from my prompts in real time. I highly recommend this training to anyone looking for a competitive advantage for their company.
