Automotive / Real Estate / Equipment Rental
Marketplace Platform for Any Industry
Connect buyers and sellers. Automotive dealerships, real estate agencies, equipment rental companies—
our platform adapts to your marketplace model.
The Business Challenge
Businesses lose control, pay high fees, and compete on third-party platforms
when they could own their marketplace and capture all the value.
Current Pain Points:
- Scattered Listings: Posted on MercadoLibre, OLX, Facebook—managing multiple platforms
- No Brand Control: Listings look like everyone else's, no differentiation
- High Marketplace Fees: 5-15% commission to third parties eats profit margins
- No Lead Management: Inquiries come from multiple sources, no CRM tracking
- Manual Inventory Updates: Update each platform separately when items sell
- Competitor Visibility: Your listings appear next to competitors' listings
What Success Looks Like:
- Own your marketplace with full brand control and custom experience
- Capture all leads in unified CRM with automated follow-ups
- Unified inventory management—update once, sync everywhere
- Lower transaction fees (payment processing only, no marketplace cut)
- Rich analytics on buyer behavior, popular items, conversion rates
- White-label platform for franchises or multi-location businesses
