How it works
Four steps to a defensible residual value
- Step 1
List the object
Upload the vehicle registration, appraisal or cost estimate; the AI reads the technical data and fills the form. Set the bidding deadline, done.
- Step 2
Sealed bids come in
Verified commercial buyers submit sealed bids. No one sees the others’ bids, what counts is genuine willingness to pay.
- Step 3
Highest bid becomes binding
After the deadline the highest bid is the defensible residual value, binding for four weeks including the obligation to collect at the bid price.
- Step 4
Residual-value certificate as PDF
All bids with amounts and timestamps as a PDF, robust for appraisals and claims settlement. Whether to sell is entirely the seller’s decision.
No interface needed
Captured in 2 minutes, the AI reads your documents
Other exchanges need a software integration. Restbid does not. Upload the vehicle registration, appraisal or cost estimate as a PDF or photo, and our AI recognises the technical data and fills the form automatically.
- No retyping: Make, model, first registration, mileage and more are transferred directly.
- No integration required: Works in the browser, independent of your appraisal software.
- Data-minimal: Uploaded files are used only for reading the data and are deleted afterwards.
