The purpose
Buying a car means visiting yards, browsing listings and juggling phone calls, usually spread over weeks. Notes end up in three different apps, the odometer reading you were quoted does not match the one you photographed, and the dealer who calls back on Tuesday is counting on you having forgotten what their car actually looked like.
Car Verdict keeps the whole hunt in one place. Every car gets its own record with photos, voice notes and a checklist. Every dealer and salesperson gets a card with their licence number, so you can check them before you deal. When it is time to decide, you compare your shortlist side by side from your own evidence, not from memory and not from the ad.

How you use it, feature by feature
Every yard and salesperson gets a card: name, suburb, phone, licence number and your notes. The built-in licence check points you at your state's motor dealer register so you can verify before you hand over a deposit.
Back corners of car yards and underground showrooms have terrible reception. Car Verdict is a web app that keeps working with no signal and syncs when you are back in range. No app store, nothing to install.
Snap the car, the build plate, the odometer and the service book. Dictate what the salesperson just said while you walk back to your own car; the note lands on the right record automatically.
A buyer's inspection checklist covering body, mechanicals, interior, history and paperwork. Answer yes, no or not applicable, attach a note, and see at a glance what you have not checked yet.
Every value records who claimed it: the listing, the salesperson, the build plate, your own eyes. When the ad says one owner and the service book says three, that is a flagged conflict until you resolve it.
Ask about kerb weights, common faults for a model year, or what a fair price looks like. The AI helps you research; your own captured evidence stays the source of truth for the decision.
Capture at least two cars and the Compare screen puts your shortlist in one table, built from what you recorded, not from what the ads claim.
Drive-away price, trade-in, accessories, warranty add-ons: record every quote itemised and compare deals the way you compare cars. Vague bundles have nowhere to hide.
When you decide, Car Verdict assembles the case: the chosen car, the shortlist it beat, the conflicts you resolved and the quotes you compared, in one document you can keep.
Sync and backup are built in, export is free forever, and your cars, photos and notes stay with you whatever happens with future pricing.
Your inspections are yours. No listings, no advertising to dealers, no selling your shortlist to the industry you are negotiating with.
The free plan covers three vehicles with the full workflow: comparison, checklist, quotes and limited AI research. No card, no subscription.
