AV LÜ™

How AvLu works

You send the listings. We show you what needs another look.

Start with one to three public listings. AVLU checks what is missing, what recon may change, and which pricing questions matter. You decide whether to check further, negotiate, or stop.

Three simple stepsNo setupHuman decision
The whole process

1
What is missing?Facts, proof, or listing details that do not line up.
2
What changes the numbers?Recon, transport, fees, and the seller ask.

Three steps. No mystery.

The free first review starts with public listing links and ends with a short comparison.

1

Send what you have

Share one to three public listings. No customer records or document upload.

2

We check the weak spots

Missing facts, recon assumptions, and pricing questions stay visible.

3

You choose the next move

Check it further, negotiate from a hard number, or stop.

The order matters

Work the deal in the right order.

Start with what you actually have. See what is missing or does not add up. Work the real numbers. Then decide whether it is worth going any further.

Kelley Blue Book can help with a value question. CARFAX can help with a vehicle-history question. AvLu comes before either one. It shows what you know, what does not match, what is still missing, what the full cost stack looks like, and what you actually need to check next.

  1. Start

    Listing, VIN photo, and seller claims

    Paste the listing, type the VIN, or take a VIN-label photo. Leave unknown details unknown until they are supported.

  2. Work it in AvLu

    See what is missing. Work the numbers.

    Review the vehicle identity, missing proof, details that do not match, total costs, protected max, ask gap, and walk-away line.

  3. Then decide

    Only check what matters next

    If the deal still holds up, move to valuation, vehicle history, title or lien, inspection, repair, and test-drive checks.

Identity comes first

Take a VIN-label photo or type it in. A supported barcode check stays on the device, the photo is not uploaded or saved, and you confirm every character before using it.

Call out what does not match

When the listing and VIN details do not line up, AvLu leaves the mismatch open for you to check.

The whole cost matters

Recon, transport, fees, other costs, buffer, and target gross all affect the protected ceiling.

Every gap gets a next step

Ask the seller, attach a source, request a quote, run a report, inspect it, or walk away.

Kelley Blue Book and CARFAX are independent services. Their names are used here only to explain where AvLu fits in the review process.

The AvLu Check, Step by Step

1▤

Bring the Listing or VIN

Paste the listing, enter the VIN or serial, or take a VIN-label photo. Keep the source and seller claims attached.

2♢

Check Identity and Proof

Mark what is provided, keep missing items visible, and surface details that do not line up.

3▦

Build the Full Cost Picture

Enter recon, transport, fees, other costs, buffer, and target gross before setting your ceiling.

4♙

Set Your Line

See the protected max, seller ask gap, and walk-away number with every assumption still visible.

5✓

Decide What to Check Next

Request proof, add a value or history reference, inspect it, negotiate, or walk away.

Each step keeps provided, missing, requested, and verified evidence visibly separate.

The proof gate

Evidence, planning assumptions, and open gaps stay visibly distinct.

☑

What’s Provided

See what the reviewer marked provided and what still needs confirmation.

△

What’s Missing

Keep open proof gaps visible beside the numbers they affect.

➤

Request & Collect

Record the next proof request and track what remains open.

▣

Verify & Lock

Confirm source identity and document scope before relying on them.

✓

Decision Ready

Keep verified inputs distinct from unverified planning estimates.

Validated. Inspectable. Honest About the Boundary.

Formula behavior is tested with real screening rows and 2,000 outcome simulations. Dealer validation remains a separate campaign.

Four quick answers

Ask AVLU
What information do I need?

Start with one to three public listing links. No customer records or document upload.

What if details are missing?

That is useful. The review keeps missing facts and open questions visible instead of guessing.

Does AvLu replace valuation or history reports?

No. It helps you see which questions still need a valuation, history report, inspection, or written quote.

Who makes the final decision?

You do. AvLu organizes the review and shows the numbers, but it does not approve a purchase.
