Why CarEdge

The only car-buying service with data, AI, and former dealership insiders on your side.

Built by people who came from the industry. Run by consumer advocates who've spent decades on the dealer's side of the desk and now want to even the score for buyers.

Paid by you. Loyal to you.

You pay us up front. No commissions, no kickbacks, no money tied to your specific deal. Your fee is the only number on the line.

Works for any car purchase.

Buying or leasing, new or used, any make or model. Our AI and our concierges handle them all, even trade-ins, fleet orders, and out-of-state purchases.

Real dealer numbers.

Actual invoice pricing, target discounts, market days supply, and OTD estimates on every listing. Not a made-up “deal score”: the same data the dealer is already pricing against you with.

You're always in control.

Approve every offer, pause anytime, change direction. We move fast but never commit without your green light.

No pushy dealer calls.

We use an email alias and a dedicated phone number. Dealers never see yours. The calls and texts stop the moment you sign up.

100,000+ negotiations in.

200+ years of dealership experience on our team, six years in business, and over 100,000 completed negotiations.

Meet the team

The experts on your side.

20+ years in the business, on average. Every CarEdge concierge spent decades inside dealerships. They know every line on the OTD sheet. Now they use that knowledge for you.

Ray and Zach Shefska, CarEdge founders

Built by Ray & Zach Shefska

Father and son. 40+ years inside the car business. Now on your side.

Ray spent 40 years on a dealership floor: salesperson, finance manager, sales manager, all the way up to general manager. Zach grew up in it. Six years ago, we started CarEdge and a YouTube channel to teach buyers what dealers won't. Over a billion views later, across every major platform, we kept hearing the same thing: “I just wish someone I trusted could do this for me.”

That's CarEdge. The expert friend on the inside, backed by data, AI, and a team of humans who've seen every trick.

Real customers. Real savings.
