AuctionMate helps you decide what a salvage or used auction car is really worth — before you bid. Paste a Copart or IAAI link (or a VIN) and get a clear read on the lot: • A plain-language verdict on every car — Strong Margin, Thin Margin, or Below Cost • Your maximum bid, and the profit at that price • Decoded VIN, title status, and reported damage • Market resale values for the vehicle • What similar cars actually sold for, from our own record of completed auctions • Inspection mode — a guided walkthrough for when you go to see the car, with a parts sheet and notes that save against the VIN • A watchlist that reminds you before a car crosses the block Whether you flip cars, run a dealer lot, or just want an edge on your next auction buy, AuctionMate turns a messy listing into one clear decision. Your watch lists, notes and repair figures are shared with the AuctionMate web dashboard and Chrome extension, so a car you save at the yard is on your desktop when you get back. Free to use. ## Version history (last 3 releases) ### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-02 A FIRST RUN THAT ASKS, THEN SHOWS Setup now asks three questions - how you sell, where you are, and how you handle shipping - and nothing else. They are the three settings that actually move the numbers, so answering them makes every figure that follows yours rather than a default. The teaching moved to where it lands: a four-stop walkthrough on the first real car you open, instead of slides shown before you have a car in front of you. It stays reachable afterwards in Settings under Learn. MORE HONEST NUMBERS Several figures were confidently wrong. They are not any more. - Flood titles. A flood-titled car was valued as though its title were clean. Salt-water flood cars were hit hardest, by a wide margin. - Damage severity. Marking a car "heavy" could quietly revert to "moderate" the next time you opened it, and even when it held, the value and the repair estimate disagreed about what "heavy" meant. - Shipping. The same auction yard could be priced two different ways depending on how its name was written, sending the estimate hundreds of dollars out on cars you could collect locally. - Similar cars sold. Cars we hold thousands of completed sales for could report no sales at all. The "all sales of this model-year" figure could also show a narrower count than it claimed. - Asking price. A listing with no price read as the best deal on the page instead of as a missing number. FIXES - The watchlist could stop loading more results. - The loading indicator showed a stray back arrow. - Search now finds a car when your spelling does not exactly match ours - order, case, punctuation and extra words no longer matter. - An auction's opening placeholder is no longer recorded as a real bid. - A title we could not read is no longer described as clean. ### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-26 INSPECTION MODE A guided walkthrough for the car in front of you. One pass around the vehicle, ordered by where you stand rather than by category, with the checks that match its damage brought to the top. It carries a parts sheet with quantities and used / aftermarket / OEM pricing, a labour line, and your own notes. Everything saves against the VIN, so it is there when you come back and it follows you between devices. WHAT SIMILAR CARS ACTUALLY SOLD FOR Comparable sales now come from our own record of completed auctions, narrowed toward the car in front of you - first by mileage, then by damage, then by title - with the reasoning shown, not just a number. You see which step moved the figure and where the evidence ran out. Where we do not hold enough sales to be confident, we say so instead of printing a number we cannot stand behind. BUYER'S FEE, ITEMISED Tap the info icon beside Buyer's fee to see what the total is made of - the auction's own buyer fee, the bid fee, and each fixed charge. The auction reserves the words "Buyer Fee" for one line of that total, so this is what lets you reconcile our figure against their invoice. FIXES - Per-car edits now save to your account rather than one device. - Clearing the title discount field restores the default instead of raising the car's value. - Auction fees were understated; rebuilt from published fee schedules so profit reflects what you will actually pay. ### 1.0 — 2026-07-31 No release notes. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
