Market Check is available inside Dealer Centre, where the majority of our advertisers access their inventory management and reporting.  For our non-car dealers (those dealers specialising in motorcycles, motorbikes, commercial vehicles, campers and caravans), plus those advertisers on single MOTORS advertising packages, access is via a browser based website.

Market Check collates data daily from multiple sources across the UK automotive market to provide accurate real-time valuation, pricing, and vehicle-specific information.

Datasets, some of which are unique to Market Check, are gathered from millions of records of public domain data that has been collected, analysed, normalised, and archived for retrieval via vehicle VRM/VIN.

Market Check also has a vast archive of over 1 billion historical vehicle adverts mapped to the PRM, enabling actual advertisements of exact vehicles to be pulled upon in the majority of cases.

This significant depth of historical advert data and retail valuations is used to feed into pricing algorithms to help give live, accurate retail prices.

There are currently over one billion historical individual vehicle adverts within Market Check dating back to 2012.

Approximately 750,000 new individual vehicle adverts are also added on a daily basis. All of these vehicles help train the machine learning and AI models used to provide present and future valuation data. These are actual adverts placed on multiple websites across the whole of the U.K.

Market Check enables dealers to source and purchase the right stock for their business.

By selecting the right vehicles, dealers can reduce the time it takes to sell and boost profits. They can also track market demand and pricing trends to quickly identify underperforming stock. Acting on this information allows dealers to minimise losses and optimise operations.

In addition, having a comprehensive market overview enables dealers to compare their pricing against competitors and recently sold vehicles. This insight helps dealerships remain competitive and improve margins on every sale.

Market Check is the go-to data source for the insurance sector and for the Financial Ombudsman Service when settling insurance claims disputes.

Today Market Check is used and relied upon by six of the top ten UK motor insurers and serves over fifty clients.

With ten years plus of vehicle advert history, Market Check is also unique in enabling dealers to get the full picture with the ability to interrogate prior performance.  It’s this level of vigour and analysis that helps dealers feel safe they are building their pricing and business strategies around powerful, meaningful data.

Market Check  is based on cloud native technology that collates millions of data points on a daily basis and serves its customers in real-time, sub-second response times.

Market Check provides access to an agnostic, ‘whole-of-market’ view of vehicle valuations, as well as both current and historical vehicle data and adverts.

With a constantly growing database of over 1 billion listings, Market Check provides dealers with an extensive resource for in-depth market analysis and insights.
