How do I get current, real time dealer datafeeds?

✨ AI Highlights

A user asks how to build a marketplace for new car dealers offering upfront pricing without negotiation, and seeks to understand how competitor sites obtain real-time inventory datafeeds without using middleman services like DataFeedWatch or DataOneSoftware. The thread reveals that inventory feeds typically come directly from dealers' syndicators (like Homenet) via CSV exports, and participants note the concept already exists in services like TrueCar while cautioning that upfront pricing models face significant adoption and profitability challenges.
