carVertical aggregates vehicle history data from over 1,000 international sources - including national car registries, insurance companies, law enforcement agencies, and official garages - and presents it in accessible reports. The company operates across 38 markets and has checked more than 12.4 million vehicles, serving over 2 million unique users annually.
Founded in 2017, carVertical addresses information asymmetry in the used vehicle market by enabling buyers and sellers to make data-driven decisions. Its platform consolidates fragmented automotive data into comprehensible formats, helping users avoid problematic purchases, understand vehicle condition, and price assets fairly. The company generated €75 million in revenue and was recognised as one of Europe's fastest-growing companies by the Financial Times in 2024.
The technical infrastructure underpinning carVertical involves substantial data aggregation, integration across disparate international databases, and presentation systems designed for clarity. The work requires managing automotive datasets at scale while maintaining accuracy and accessibility for non-technical users across multiple jurisdictions.
