We publish a ±15 % error band right on the report. Each estimate blends 200k+ past auction results from reputable enthusiast platforms (Bring a Trailer, Cars & Bids, Barret-Jackson, Mecum, RM Sotheby's, etc.) with a human expert reviewer's sanity-check. When our numbers miss, we retrain - so the service gets sharper every week.
Anything enthusiast-worthy: classics, JDM imports, muscle cars, exotics, restomods, modern performance or quirky cars. You can submit your own vehicles for appraisal or you can send links to existing auction listings or classifieds that picked your interest.
Just paste a URL of an existing listing or upload detailed photos & description of your car. You'll receive the full report as a PDF document withing 24 hours. The reports are not instantenious as they involve human verification and stamps of approval from real car experts.
No. Carnostic isn't a dealer, broker, or reseller. We don't keep inventory, we don't take consignments, and we never bid on the listings we analyse. Our only product is information. We make (and will eventually charge for) reports - not cars. If a listing sells for more or less than our estimate, we earn exactly the same. We help you decide what a car is worth; we're not trying to buy it out from under you or mark it up to the next person. That's the whole mission.
Absolutely. Your images, documents, mileage, VIN data and the resulting reports live on the encrypted servers, never shared with anyone, and our experts have strict NDAs. At Carnostic we take security and privacy very seriously and follow the best industry standards.
