Trump says Iran war "close to over" amid hopes for more negotiations
MESA, Ariz. - Verra Mobility Corporation (NASDAQ:VRRM) announced today the launch of AutoKinex Virtual Agent, a digital platform that allows rental car customers to complete checkout and select add-on services through a vehicle’s infotainment system.The $2.28 billion company’s shares have declined 38% over the past six months, though InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is significantly undervalued at current levels, placing it among opportunities on the platform’s Most Undervalued list.
The system enables renters to review rental details and confirm or modify services including prepaid fuel, tolling, and insurance coverage from inside the vehicle without returning to the rental counter. The platform also sends notifications to drivers during their rental period, such as reminders to refuel before return.
The solution integrates with existing rental company systems and uses workflow automation to guide customers through the rental process. Verra Mobility stated the system is designed to reduce counter congestion and lower operational costs for rental companies.
"AutoKinex Virtual Agent enables true counter-bypass by allowing renters to confirm details and opt into services directly from the vehicle’s infotainment system," said Stacey Mosser, executive vice president at Verra Mobility, according to a press release statement.
The company cited a 2025 J.D. Power study that found overall satisfaction was higher among rental car customers who skipped the counter compared to those who stopped at it.
The AutoKinex Virtual Agent is available now for rental car companies. Verra Mobility, headquartered in Arizona, provides smart mobility technology solutions and operates in North America, Europe, and Australia. The company maintains impressive gross profit margins of 58%, according to InvestingPro data, which offers detailed analysis through its comprehensive Pro Research Report covering VRRM and over 1,400 US equities.
