THINKCAR Unveils Tyler as the Industry's First AI Diagnostic Agent at Global Distributors Conference

SHENZHEN, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 3 July 2026 - The automotive aftermarket faces a technician shortage: only one candidate exists for every four open roles. Today, THINKCAR unveiled Tyler, the industry's first AI Diagnostic Agent, at its 2026 Global Distributors Conference in Shenzhen, with hundreds of distributors from 30+ countries gathered under the theme "Igniting the Era of AI Diagnostic Agents — AI That Knows.

AI That Acts."

Tyler is an AI Diagnostic Agent that perceives, reasons, acts, and learns with every session. It runs a full diagnostic workflow — from fault capture to repair plan — and predicts future failures before warning lights turn on. The technician keeps working. Tyler handles the rest.
