Announcing Auctions Plus

Auctions Plus allows you to create Unlimited Saved Searches that will automatically search 300+ auctions and online marketplaces for the exact vehicles or criteria you specify. It's like sourcing on autopilot!

Save huge amounts of time by finding the perfect vehicles for your lot. Instantly search sale inventories from Manheim, Adesa, EDGE Pipeline, SmartAuction, OVE, Manheim Express, Auction Central, EDGE.Auction, and EBlock - all on one screen and through a single search.

1. Unlimited Saved Searches

   Save valuable time by setting up saved searches for any combination of price range, age, mileages and type of vehicle; then receive updated results every time those vehicles appear at auction. Unlimited Saved Searches mean that you can run broad searches for a particular vehicle segment or get extremely granular and search for a very specific vehicle that meets your needs.

2. Search by Wholesale & Retail Price

   Leverage Carbly's Estimated Auction Sale Price and Estimated Retail Price to quickly search and sort vehicles based on your desired spend and what vehicles are expected to sell for at retail.

3. Search by Profit Potential

   Customize the Carbly Profit Calculator to reflect your own CR score based recon, auction fees, transport, other miscellaneous costs, desired profit and retail price estimates; so you can quickly target viable units instead of wasting time looking at vehicles that don't suit your business model.

4. Search by VIN & Buy it Now

   Need to determine if a specific vehicle is at auction? Auctions Plus allows you to enter a VIN and search auctions nationwide for a single vehicle. You can combine price estimates and profit potential with "Buy it Now" so you can avoid a bidding war by snapping up the vehicles that are expected to turn a healthy profit.

5. Search with your Team

   Work together to find the most profitable vehicles for your dealership. With Auctions Plus, you can share saved searches and a watchlist with everyone on your team.

NADA Official Used Car Guide® is now J.D. Power Values

Dealers and automotive professionals alike have been relying on J.D. Power data in the form of NADA Official Used Car Guide® for years. J.D. Power, the owner of the NADA Official Used Car Guide, is changing the name to J.D. Power Values.

As a Carbly customer there is nothing you need to do, and there have not been any changes to your service or the data you know and trust; the only difference is the name, which you will soon see on the guidebook, in the app and on desktop.

Announcing Carbly for Teams

Carbly for Teams allows dealers and their staff to collaborate seamlessly no matter where they are with shared vehicle lists, watchlists, notes and photos. Vehicles added to Carbly can be viewed by everyone else on the team. Anyone can comment as needed on value, condition, recon, lot status, deal flow and more.

Carbly for Teams is free for accounts that have mulitple users and gives dealers more flexibility to get all staff working together on the platform with different user types. Additonal full-access users can be added at discounted rates; these users can access market data and collaborate as needed on all vehicles in the system.

There is also now a Non-Appraisal user type; these users cannot access market data but can scan vehicles, use the shared vehicle lists and watchlists, add notes and photos, as well as view the activity feed.

The activity feed helps everyone on the team stay up to date effortlessly whether they're in the lanes, on the lot or sitting at their desk. Regardless of size or structure, indie dealers can increase efficiency and expedite workflows with all their staff on the same platform.
