Listing intelligence

Private listings are a mess. We read them anyway.

The best deals hide in the worst ads: no VIN, no mileage, "runs good." DealerScout AI turns seller shorthand into structured data you can actually underwrite.

Underwriting, done before you call

Every number you argue about, answered up front.

Each opportunity arrives with the full buy case attached, so the only decision left is yes or no.

Your ceiling, not their asking

A maximum bid computed from comps, recon and your minimum gross, so you never win a car by overpaying for it.

max bid $16,400 all-in

Recon priced before you buy

Safety, detailing, transport, tires, brakes, glass: your standard costs applied to what the listing actually says and shows.

est. recon $1,200

Retail range from live comps

Same model, trim, kilometres and region: sold and listed. You get a range and a recommended list price, not a fantasy number.

retail $20,4k – $22,1k

Days-to-sell forecast

How fast this exact kind of unit moves in your market, and on your lot, based on what you've actually turned before.

expected turn 28–42 days

Risk flags first

Rebuilt status, extreme kilometres, missing VIN, too-good-to-be-true pricing, five identical units already on your lot. Deal-breakers surface before you drive out.

The Opportunity Score

One number, earned the hard way.

Every vehicle gets scored 0–100 against your strategy. Here's exactly how an 84 becomes an 84: no black box.

Your buying profile

It buys like you. Just earlier.

Set your strategy once: budget, radius, brands, margins, the stuff you'd tell a new buyer on day one. Then it keeps learning from what actually happens on your lot:

What you really sell fast, not what the market says should sell fast.
Your true average margin per segment, so estimates stay honest.
Which models rot on the lot, and quietly stop getting recommended.
Which price bands convert into leads, test drives and closed deals.
