Dealers near you are claiming their spot.

How it works

From buyer to showroom. No portal to learn.

Everything happens from your email or phone. Tap, review, provide your offer, done.

A buyer signs up

A local customer tells us what they want next and how they'll pay, then completes a guided inspection of their trade.

You get the alert

By email or text: what they're shopping for, how they're paying, and that a trade is waiting. Free to look.

Open and provide your offer in one tap

Open the lead to see the full inspection and photos, then enter your number right there. Or just reply to the email.

Win the customer

The buyer compares offers and picks one. The winning dealer gets their name, phone and email. Nobody else does.

The inspection

The data you use at auction. Before they walk in.

Real photos, real damage, real grades. Price the trade with confidence before you ever see the car.

Auction-standard grading

Graded on the same kind of scale your appraisers use buying at wholesale. Severity and repair method on every finding.

Photo-documented, panel by panel

Every finding comes with a photo, so you know the recon before you commit to a number.

Disclosure checks

Flood, frame, salvage, airbag and more, checked before a lead reaches you.

Questions

The short answers.

Do I need to log in to provide my offer?

No. Each lead arrives by email or text with a private link. Tap it, review the inspection, enter your number. You can also reply to the email with your offer. You only log in to manage billing or see your reports.

What's the difference between a preview and opening a lead?

Every alert comes with a free preview: what the buyer is shopping for, how they plan to pay, and that they have a trade-in. Opening the lead shows the full inspection report and photos and lets you make an offer. You're charged once per lead you open, never for previews.

Who gets the customer's contact details?

Only the dealer the customer picks. Everyone else sees the vehicle and report, never the customer's name, phone or email.

What's the ghosted-customer credit?

For Pro dealers: if a customer picks you and then stops responding completely, report it. We'll try to reach the customer, and if they don't respond, your lead fee is credited back.

How do Pro terms and cancelling work?

Pick a 3-month, 6-month or 1-year package. Each term is paid in full up front and renews for the same length. To cancel, tell us in writing before your term ends: 30 days ahead on the 3-month package, 60 days on the 6-month and 90 days on the 1-year. Tire Kicker has no term and no monthly fee.

Can I pause Pro?

Yes. Pro dealers can pause for up to 30 days in any 12 months, like pausing a gym membership. Just email hello@bidriveauto.com. While paused you still get lead alerts with your head start, and opening a lead resumes Pro right away. Paused days are added to the end of your term, so you never lose time you've paid for.

Which areas do you cover?

Ontario, by region: Toronto, the GTA (Peel, York, Durham and Halton), Hamilton, Niagara, Waterloo, Simcoe, Barrie, Innisfil and Blue Mountain, Ottawa, London, Kingston, Windsor, Thunder Bay and the rest of Ontario. Tire Kicker covers 1 region, Pro up to 5. Dealers in other provinces can sign up now and be first in line when we launch there.

Can used car lots and wholesalers join?

Yes. Franchise dealers, independents and used car lots all receive the same leads in their regions. The best offer wins.
