Whippz Auto Market: National Vehicle Marketplace Platform

The automotive market was fragmented across disconnected channels — sellers couldn't easily compare offers, and buyers had limited nationwide access. Key challenges: (1) Integrating real-time pricing data (KBB, market comparables) for accurate quote generation, (2) Managing complex multi-carrier logistics across 50 states with real-time tracking, (3) Automating title validation and clean-title verification, (4) Building a frictionless mobile experience for on-the-go valuations via VIN scanning, (5) Creating trust between unknown buyers and sellers in a traditionally high-friction market.

Architected a two-sided marketplace with a quote engine at the core. Integrated Kelley Blue Book API for live valuations and accident history data. Built a mobile-first VIN scanner using barcode recognition and instant market comps. For logistics, established partnerships with multi-carrier networks and integrated GPS tracking for real-time delivery visibility. Automated title verification workflows to ensure only clean-title vehicles enter inventory. Designed the buyer experience with category-based browsing, delivery availability filtering, and one-click purchase. The seller experience emphasizes speed: quote in minutes, pickup within 30 hours, payment on spot.

Platform successfully processes 1,278+ vehicles across 31 states with consistent 30-hour average pickup times. Quote accuracy improved seller satisfaction from 73% to 94% through real-time market data. Automated logistics reduced operational overhead by 60%. VIN scanner (launching Q2 2025) is available on iOS and Android with instant valuations. The marketplace attracts both high-volume dealers seeking acquisitions and individual sellers avoiding dealership trade-ins. Monthly transaction volume growing 22% quarter-over-quarter.
