Description
CarEdge Pro is a cutting-edge tool powered by AI that assists consumers in navigating the car buying experience by providing them with valuable insights into the automotive market, pricing data, and an intelligent AI assistant dedicated to streamlining the purchasing process. Users can tap into extensive market details, including dealer invoice prices, fair market valuations, target discount figures, available vehicle counts, market supply durations, historical sales trends, and exclusive pricing suggestions, enabling them to conduct thorough research and confidently compare prices prior to engaging with dealerships. After completing their vehicle assessments, CarEdge Pro’s integrated AI agent takes the initiative to reach out to various dealerships on behalf of the buyer, negotiating prices while ensuring that offers presented are transparent and comprehensive, allowing consumers to evaluate and select the most favorable deal without the anxiety of traditional negotiation tactics. The service prioritizes privacy by keeping buyers' contact information confidential until they are ready to proceed, thus minimizing unwanted communication, while its user-friendly dashboard aggregates real-time price data and tracks negotiation progress, enhancing the overall buying experience. This innovative approach not only simplifies the car purchasing journey but also empowers consumers with the tools they need to make informed decisions.
Description
Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is an automotive software platform built to help car dealerships acquire high-quality used vehicles directly from private sellers—without relying on auctions. As wholesale prices rise and vehicle availability tightens, VAN empowers dealers with tools to source inventory faster, more profitably, and with greater control.
VAN aggregates local FSBO (for-sale-by-owner) listings, applies real-time market data to assess profitability, and automates communication with sellers at scale. Buyers can manage leads, track seller conversations, and streamline acquisition workflows through an intuitive CRM-style dashboard designed specifically for dealership teams.
For dealers who don’t have dedicated acquisition staff, VAN offers a Managed Buyer program, pairing stores with expert buyers who actively source, engage, and negotiate with private sellers on their behalf—saving time and boosting acquisition volume without internal hiring.
VAN is trusted by hundreds of dealerships across North America—from independent rooftops to franchise groups—looking to beat Carvana and CarMax at their own game. It's the smarter way to buy cars.
