Frequently Asked Questions

What is GearCheckAuto?

GearCheckAuto is a service that provides a standardized, on-site technical inspection system for used vehicles in the United States. We use a proprietary tool called AutoScore to certify the actual mechanical condition of a car before you buy it, addressing the transparency gap in the used car market.

How is this different from a Carfax or gearcheckauto report?

While services like Carfax and gearcheckauto provide valuable historical and administrative information (like accident records or ownership changes), they do not perform physical, on-site inspections. GearCheckAuto fills this critical gap by sending a certified technician to assess the vehicle's current mechanical health, which is something those reports don't cover.

How does the inspection process work?

You request an inspection through our digital platform. We then dispatch a certified mobile technician to the vehicle's location. The technician performs a thorough on-site evaluation using standardized protocols and professional tools. The data is then used to generate a comprehensive "AutoScore" report, which you receive online.

Who is this service for?

Our service is designed for anyone buying a used car, especially in private peer-to-peer (P2P) sales where formal inspections are rare. We particularly focus on assisting middle and low-income consumers, Hispanic and migrant populations, and first-time buyers who are more vulnerable to information gaps and fraud.

Where is GearCheckAuto available?

The project will launch its initial operations in the state of Connecticut. We have a phased plan to expand regionally to states like Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey, with the ultimate goal of achieving a national presence.
