The vehicle intelligence layer · Operating across the U.S.
Vehicle movement, pricing, disaster exposure, and behavioral intelligence — built from what the market is actually doing.
Track what traditional vehicle history reports miss.
Beyond vehicle history reports
By observing where vehicles appear, disappear, re-enter, and move across markets, ETIMUS builds a historical intelligence layer around each VIN that no report can replicate.
| Traditional VHR | ETIMUS |
|---|---|
| Title brands & insurance claims | Market movement patterns |
| Auction disclosures | Disaster exposure probability |
| Service record snapshots | Re-entry after market disappearance |
| Point-in-time data | Continuous VIN-level history |
| Self-reported feeds | Regional demand & supply shifts |
New risk signals traditional reports cannot surface
How it works
Three layers turn fragmented, inconsistent platform data into a clear picture of what the market is actually doing.
Automated processes observe active dealership listings across all major platforms — detecting changes in price, availability, and content as they happen, without relying on self-reported feeds.
Platform-aware classification aligns inconsistent source data into a unified VIN-centric model. Every vehicle builds a persistent historical record — continuity preserved even when source systems are inconsistent.
Raw changes become meaning: pricing volatility, inventory aging, stagnation risk, dealer patterns, and market momentum — converted into signals you can act on.
What ETIMUS surfaces
Not just a list of vehicles — a living record of how inventory moves, prices shift, and dealers behave over time.
Track when vehicles enter and leave the market, how long they persist, and when they reappear — across dealers and geographies.
Identify price cuts, repeated adjustments, and long-stagnant listings that signal dealer pressure or weak demand.
Each VIN accumulates a persistent record of every observed state: pricing history, platform presence, content changes, and classification over time.
Observe how individual dealers manage pricing, inventory churn, and listing strategy — revealing patterns invisible from a single snapshot.
Disaster intelligence
Many vehicles affected by floods, hurricanes, hailstorms, wildfires, and tornadoes are later repaired and resold without a clear public damage record.
ETIMUS combines vehicle movement intelligence with public disaster datasets to build probabilistic exposure signals for individual VINs. The result is not a claim that a vehicle was damaged — it is a probability score that helps identify vehicles requiring deeper inspection.
Vehicle market activity overlapped with a declared disaster region and later movement pattern is consistent with post-event relocation.

Use cases
Designed for any organization where knowing what the automotive market is actually doing creates a meaningful advantage.
Identify risk, pricing pressure, and market movement before acquisition or resale. See how your inventory compares to regional competitors in real time — act before the market moves past you.
Add VIN-level exposure and market intelligence to valuation and risk workflows. Ground decisions in observed market behavior, not just published averages.
Detect vehicles that may require additional inspection before purchase. Surface disaster exposure and market re-entry signals before a bid is placed.
Enhance existing reports with probabilistic movement and exposure intelligence — adding signals that reported events alone cannot surface.
