The smarter alternative to VETTX
Backlist helps used-car dealers source underpriced private-party cars across Marketplace, Cars.com, AutoTrader and more — each one priced by AI and delivered in real time.
Month-to-month. No year-long contract. Automated outreach included.
Real-time, not hours later
Competitors only update their listings a few times a day. Backlist alerts you the moment a private-seller car posts — so you reach the seller before the lot down the street.
No year-long lock-in
Transparent, month-to-month pricing with automated outreach included — no 12-month contract and no quote games. Scale up or down as your market changes.
Margin on every car
Each listing comes with an AI predicted price, wholesale value and deal grade, so you know your margin before you ever message a seller.
