AutoFinder reaches shoppers who are actively comparing vehicles and ready to take the next step. Here's how your inventory gets in front of them.
Shoppers browse filtered search results on AutoFinder.com and click through vehicle listings directly to your VDP. Your inventory gets unlimited exposure with priority placement.
When a vehicle on your lot matches a consumer’s search preferences, they receive a personalized SMS alert with a direct link to your VDP. Thousands of consumers opt in daily.
Your inventory appears within vehicle articles and auto media brands, reaching consumers who are already researching the exact vehicles you sell.
Backed by proprietary data from 500K+ monthly automotive consumers and 22 years of industry expertise.
Proprietary data from millions of daily shopper signals lets us target high-propensity buyers, lease-end shoppers, and comparable vehicle converters — while excluding low-intent traffic.
AutoFinder traffic doesn't just arrive on your site — it engages with your inventory. Our shoppers interact with your VDPs at rates that outperform standard paid channels.
At $1.50 per click, AutoFinder costs a fraction of Google Ads, AutoTrader, Cars.com, or CarGurus traffic to your VDPs. More budget stays in your pocket.
Custom tracking parameters are built into every click so you can see exactly what AutoFinder is delivering. No black boxes — just clear, verifiable performance data.
Connect your inventory feed, we configure tracking, and you're live. No complex integrations, no developer time, no disruption to your current setup.
Start, pause, or stop your program at any time. We earn your business every month — no annual commitments or cancellation penalties required.
AutoFinder delivers the same high-intent VDP traffic you're already buying — at a fraction of the cost.
