What is AutoReader?
Automated vehicle search in real time
AutoReader is Windows software for professional vehicle buying. It monitors the major German car marketplaces, mobile.de, AutoScout24.de and, in the Carbon edition, Kleinanzeigen.de, and reports newly published vehicle listings within seconds: by sound, by balloon message or by e-mail. Dealers can set up any number of search jobs with marketplace-precise criteria, save them and adjust them at any time. AutoReader is a product of CarObserver GmbH in Hamm (Westf.) and has been developed for car dealerships for more than 25 years.
Anyone who sees a suitable vehicle seconds after it is published buys it before the competition has even found it. According to the provider, more than a thousand car dealers work with the AutoReader products.
Who is AutoReader for?
For commercial car dealers whose margin is made at the point of purchase. Four fields of use are typical, and they also determine which solution fits.
Export
Large volumes within tight price limits. Marketplace-precise search and the filter function keep every target region on its own criteria.
Specific customer enquiries
A customer is looking for one particular vehicle. Set up a search job, get notified, confirm, instead of searching manually every day.
Damaged vehicles
Full-text search in the vehicle data and the distinction between dealer and private listings are decisive here.
Luxury and sports cars
Rare vehicles are gone within minutes. Tracking price changes pays off directly in this segment.
Vehicle types: cars, vans and trucks up to 7.5 t, trucks over 7.5 t, buses, tractor units, semi-trailers and trailers, agricultural and construction machinery, caravans and motorhomes, depending on the solution.

Found is not the same as assessed.
AutoReader reports the new listing to you. If you also want to know what margin it holds and how long the vehicle is likely to sit, take a look at the Sourcing Tool, the complementary solution for the assessment.
