The $84.5 Million Question
That's a Lot of Cars
$84.5 million is enough to buy approximately 3,019 Honda Civics at $28,000 each. Or 3,019 families could upgrade from LX to EX trim.
Stack It Up
If you stacked $84.5 million in $100 bills, it would be approximately 303 feet tall. That's taller than a skyscraper!
Key Findings
AI Persistence Pays Off
Buyers who let AI negotiate multiple rounds save $2,658 on average. That's not pocket change — that's a real impact on your budget.
Time is Your Most Valuable Asset
755,165 hours saved equals 18,879 work weeks. That's time you'd never get back if you negotiated manually.
Hidden Fees Add Up
AI doesn't just fight on price — it targets doc fees, add-ons, and other hidden charges. $284 in average combined fee reductions.
The Market Moves Fast
In just the last 7 days, CarEdge AI ran 1,925 negotiations and captured $2.55M in buyer savings. Pricing and dealer behavior shift daily, so starting earlier gives AI more room to win concessions for you.

Methodology
Negotiation Definition: Any CarEdge AI dealer outreach session counts as one negotiation. Outreach sessions come from our AI deal telemetry stream.
Savings Calculation: Savings are calculated from VIN-level quote groups: highest quoted price minus final quoted price (with trade value normalized back into gross price). This requires multi-quote history for the same vehicle.
Time Saved: Uses observed customer time-saved telemetry from negotiation workflows. If telemetry is unavailable, we use conservative round-based estimates.
Responsiveness Metrics: Email/SMS response rates measure the share of outreach deals that received at least one dealer response on that same channel.
Data Validity: Quote-level savings include only valid OTD prices ($0-$500k). Outlier filtering and channel safeguards are applied before aggregation.
