CHAPEL HILL, N.C., April 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TradePending, a provider of automotive dealership software, announced today that it has rebranded as Protomiq. The brand change reflects the company’s evolution into an intelligent digital sales conversion platform that uses engaging, integrated digital experiences to help dealers identify shoppers who are most likely to purchase a vehicle.
Serving thousands of dealerships nationwide, Protomiq brings together dealer-native experiences, including Trade, Offer, Payments, AutoBio and Value Watch, to convert high-intent shoppers and help dealers move them toward a purchase. By connecting these touchpoints, Protomiq gives dealers a clear, intelligence-rich view of each customer’s readiness to buy.
“Our evolution to Protomiq signals a sharper focus on what matters most—helping dealers convert more shoppers into buyers through intelligent, insight-driven digital experiences,” said Jorge de Castro, CEO of Protomiq. “Renovating the brand captures the next chapter of innovation and growth for our dealer partners, where intelligence meets conversion, and every action drives more growth for our dealers.”
