You've probably seen this before.
These are the moments VINalyzer was built for. If any of these sound like a deal you're looking at right now — run the VIN before you send a dollar.
“What if the car breaks down the week after you buy it?”
No warranty. No dealer. No recourse. Just a car you can't drive and money you can't get back.
“Priced thousands above what it's actually worth.”
Seller said no issues. Two open recalls. This happens every single day on Facebook Marketplace.
“That seller knows exactly what's wrong with that car.”
They're counting on you not finding out until after you've paid. Once that cash leaves your hands, it's gone forever.
Two buyers. Same car. Very different outcomes.
The only difference is the 60 seconds one of them spent running the VIN.
"It looked clean. The seller seemed nice."
- ✕Overpaid — no clue what verified market data said

Everything You Should Know
What is VINalyzer?+
VINalyzer is an AI-powered used car buying assistant that helps you decide whether a vehicle is worth buying. Instead of overwhelming you with pages of data, VINalyzer analyzes the available vehicle information and provides a clear recommendation to Buy, Negotiate, or Walk Away. You'll also receive verified market pricing, VIN-specific recall information (paid reports), negotiation guidance, vehicle pros and cons, red flags, and a pre-purchase inspection checklist to help you buy with confidence.
Is this real vehicle data?+
Yes. VINalyzer combines AI-powered analysis with trusted automotive data sources. Market pricing and comparable vehicle data are provided by MarketCheck. VIN-specific open recall information in paid reports is powered by CarsXE using official NHTSA recall data. The full CarsXE Vehicle History Report is bundled with every $15.99 report and includes Title records, Junk & Salvage records, Accident & Damage events, Insurance & Brand records, and VIN Change & Historical events for that specific VIN. Vehicle specifications and VIN decoding come from trusted automotive data providers. VINalyzer analyzes all of this information to provide practical buying recommendations.
Why is the report only $15.99?+
$15.99 is our introductory launch price and will increase in the near future. VINalyzer is intentionally focused on buying intelligence — verdict, market price, VIN-specific recalls, full vehicle history, and negotiation tips — packaged for private-seller buyers. Every VINalyzer Intelligence Report includes: AI buying recommendation, verified market pricing, VIN-specific open recalls, full vehicle history, vehicle pros and cons, negotiation guidance, potential buying risks, and a pre-purchase inspection checklist. Our goal is simple: help you buy smarter, all in one report.
Does VINalyzer work with Facebook Marketplace?+
Absolutely. VINalyzer works with any valid 17-character VIN from Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, and other private-seller listings. Simply copy the VIN, paste it into VINalyzer, and receive your free preview.
Can VINalyzer tell me if I should buy the car?+
That's exactly what it's built for. VINalyzer reviews available vehicle information, verified market pricing, recalls, and other important buying factors to provide a clear recommendation: ✅ Buy, 🤝 Negotiate, or 🚶 Walk Away. Every recommendation includes a simple explanation so you understand why.
Do I need to create an account?+
Yes—but only to save and access your VINalyzer reports. Creating a free account allows you to save every report you've purchased, view your reports anytime from any device, keep track of your remaining report credits, and purchase additional credits without losing access to previous reports. Each report credit equals one VINalyzer Intelligence Report. Your account ensures your reports and credits are always available whenever you need them.
Does VINalyzer replace a mechanic's inspection?+
No. VINalyzer helps you become a more informed buyer before meeting the seller, but it does not replace a professional inspection. We always recommend having any used vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic before completing your purchase. Think of VINalyzer as your first layer of protection—not your last.
Where do I find the VIN?+
The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique 17-character code assigned to every vehicle. You'll usually find it in the online vehicle listing, by asking the seller, on the driver's side dashboard near the windshield, inside the driver's door jamb, or on the registration or insurance card. Any legitimate seller should have no problem providing the VIN before you meet.
Can I also get a full vehicle history report?+
Yes. VINalyzer offers an optional Vehicle History Report add-on for $10 per VIN, powered by CarsXE. It includes Title records, Junk & Salvage records, Accident & Damage events, Insurance & Brand records, and VIN Change & Historical events. You can add it to any package at checkout (choose how many VINs to cover — for example, 0, 1, 2, or 3 on the 3-report bundle), or add it later from inside any completed report with one click. It's completely optional — the core VINalyzer Intelligence Report already includes the AI recommendation, market pricing, VIN-specific open recalls, negotiation tips, and inspection checklist.
