PTX™ is AutoSonix’s signal convergence index, a standardized intake baseline that tells you whether independent mechanical signals agree or conflict, instantly, for every vehicle.
PTX™ SCORE BANDS
Plain Language. Every Time.
PTX™ 100-85
"Everything makes sense for this vehicle"
✓All signals align. No elevated risk.
PTX™ 84-60
“Normal wear. Nothing unusual.”
✓Most signals align. Minor deviations.
PTX™ 59-40
“Something is a little off. Take a closer look.”
⚠Some signals conflicting or incomplete
PTX™ 39-0
"Multiple things don't line up"
✗Mechanical evaluation strongly advised
WHAT IS PTX™
A Standardized Signal for Every Trade-In
PTX™ stands for Powertrain Signal Index. It is a single, objective score that reflects how closely observed powertrain behavior aligns with expected operating patterns at the point of intake.
Rather than relying on one data source, PTX™ combines independent signals. OBD data, contextual information and AutoSonix acoustic capture. PTX™ measures whether they align or conflict. The result is a band, not a verdict. A starting point, not a final answer.
This gives every team member, regardless of technical background, a consistent, repeatable baseline to support faster, smarter decisions.
THE TWO SIGNALS PTX™ MEASURES
Where the Score Comes From
No single signal determines PTX™ . OBD has existed for decades. AutoSonix's acoustic signal is new. Together they create something neither can produce alone.
OBD Signal
Decades Old
On-board diagnostics. Fault codes, sensor data, and system status.
Sound Signal
Autosonix
Structured mechanical acoustics converted into repeatable data.
The result is a PTX™ band. Not a verdict.
A consistent intake signal showing how multiple inputs relate.
