Relied on where a valuation must hold up
Over the years, banks, insurers, leasing companies, dealers and marketplaces have used AutoUncle to value cars, and so has the Danish Tax Agency (SKAT).
Show buyers whether an asking price is good, help sellers price their car, and turn listing text and photos into identified vehicles, with the price ratings car buyers already know from autouncle.com.
Let sellers start from a few photos and a line of text. We identify the make, model, generation, gearbox, colour and equipment, and say what is still missing.
Show the seller what comparable cars are listed for, at private-sale or dealer level, before they set a price.
Rate every asking price from Super price to Expensive on the same five-step scale as autouncle.com, with the price limits of each rating.
Normalize dealer feeds with their own make, model and variant names into one catalogue-identified vehicle, so search filters and comparisons work.
Add the asking price to a valuation and the result rates it, returns the price limits of all five ratings, and tells you whether the rating holds across the 80% range. When it doesn't, show it with care, for example as "around a good price".

Buyers trust a rating they can check. Every valuation comes with the identified car and comparable listings you can show next to the rating.
Make, model, generation and drivetrain, with the source of every value: your input, the register, the listing text, a photo or an assumption.
80%, 95% and 99% price ranges, a precision grade with a sentence explaining it, and how much comparable market data stands behind the estimate.
Up to five similar cars on sale and five that recently left the market, as anonymized examples: year, rounded mileage, rounded asking price, price rating and days on market. Never the seller, a link, dates, the plate, the VIN or photos. One extra credit, only when listings are returned; not available in Denmark.
Disclaimers and data-source attributions on every result. Live results are kept for 13 months and can be read back by their ID.

Anonymized examples with rounded mileage and prices. Comparables support the price; they are not its basis. Prices are asking prices.
AutoUncle has valued used cars independently since 2010, from the market data of every country we cover. Data Services gives you the same valuations, vehicle identification and price ratings that power autouncle.com.
Over the years, banks, insurers, leasing companies, dealers and marketplaces have used AutoUncle to value cars, and so has the Danish Tax Agency (SKAT).
Yes. Send the asking price with a valuation, and the result rates it on AutoUncle's five-step scale, from Super price to Expensive. Show the attribution text whenever the result includes one.
Yes. Photos and listing text are read to identify the car and its equipment, gearbox, colour and condition, and every value says whether it was read from a photo, the text or your structured fields. Photos are read with live keys only.
No. Send them as they are. The normalization API matches them to the catalogue, including abbreviations and local names in our markets, and tells you where each value came from.
Yes. Use the private-sale price basis to show what comparable cars are listed for by private sellers, with a range rather than a single number.
One credit per successful live valuation, normalization or vehicle lookup. Catalogue calls and test keys are free, and refusals and failures never use credits.
