Features
Everything You Need to Buy Safely
Built specifically for Australian machinery buyers.
🔢
VIN / PIN / Serial Detection
Automatically finds the vehicle identification number from any listing. Works with standard 17-character VINs, tractor PINs (John Deere, Case IH) and equipment serial numbers.
🏛
PPSR Check Integration
One click takes you to the official Australian Government PPSR with the VIN pre-filled. Check for hidden finance, theft records and write-offs. Only $2 — charged by the government, not us.
🚨
Scam Flag Analysis
Analyses price, description quality and listing age. Flags suspicious language, unusually low prices and vague descriptions that are common in machinery scams.
📷
Reverse Image Search
Check if listing photos have been stolen from other websites or reused across multiple fake listings — a classic scammer tactic.
📊
Trust Score
Every scan generates a trust score out of 100. Green means looking good, amber means proceed with caution, red means serious concerns detected.
🔒
