In plain English

Car shoppers who already know the details they want can set those wishes in CarScout and let it watch for matches. When a car fits, the service sends a notice, so the shopper is not refreshing listing sites all day. Extra market information is there too, to help them judge a possible purchase with more than a photo and a price. Shoppers pay because searching many places and remembering every detail is exhausting. The AI does most of the matching and the payment handling, but the person running CarScout still does a real share, including quality checks, customer help, marketing, and odd cases the search should not decide alone.

Overview

CarScout provides an online platform for car shopping automation. We give our users a single, consolidated platform where they can search for very specific criteria in a car, and then our backend service tracks this criteria and notifies users when any positive matches have been found. We also provide several market intelligence tools to users as well, to give them as much information about the vehicle as possible when they are evaluating a potential car purchase.
