We extend our thanks to our partner NLX for their support and active participation in TechCrunch Sessions: AI, held on June 5, 2025, at UC Berkeley.
“How Toyota Repair Technicians Leverage AI with NLX” took place on the main stage from 2:20 p.m. to 2:40 p.m. PT, where Kordel France (Toyota) and Andrei Papancea (NLX) revealed how they brought AI from concept to scale. They showcased how AI-powered conversational tools are now helping Toyota technicians instantly access complex repair data — significantly boosting productivity and improving dealership efficiency through smarter, faster workflows.
