SellMyRide (sellmyride.com) is a Chicago-based, venture-backed technology platform that helps car dealerships acquire used vehicle inventory directly from consumers, bypassing auctions and middlemen. The platform delivers exclusive, dealer-branded consumer leads along with data-backed offers, CRM tracking, performance reporting, and ongoing success support to help dealers scale direct-from-consumer acquisitions. Founded in 2024, the company has supported dealers in acquiring over $1 billion worth of used car inventory and counts Automotive Ventures among its investors.
What you do with it
source exclusive leads from motivated private sellers without competing with other dealers or paying auction fees, so they can reduce acquisition costs and build inventory volume independent of auction market volatility
When a dealer needs to fill 50–100+ units per month but relies heavily on auctions, trade-ins, or inconsistent street purchases
activate a branded, always-on acquisition platform that converts geo-targeted traffic into qualified seller leads, so they can acquire cars directly from consumers without relying on third-party marketplaces or middlemen
When a dealer lacks in-house marketing capability to attract private sellers at scale
differentiate by securing exclusive, direct-to-consumer acquisition channels that larger competitors cannot replicate locally, so they can protect market position and guarantee consistent inventory supply
When a dealer competes against national players like CarMax and Carvana for inventory access
