AutoArchive was built to solve a specific problem: enthusiast car owners who have maintained their vehicles meticulously have no systematic way to prove it to buyers. CarFax does not see their specialist shops. Physical binders of receipts cannot be shared online. Typed summaries are not credible. AutoArchive changes this.
Step One: Create Your Vehicle Profile
Every archive starts with a vehicle profile: year, make, model, trim, VIN, and current mileage. This is the anchor that organizes your documentation and generates your VIN-linked report.
Step Two: Upload Your Documents
Upload every service document you have, invoices, parts receipts, inspection reports, trackday logs, and maintenance records. AutoArchive accepts PDF, JPEG, and PNG files. There is no limit on the number of documents per vehicle.
Each document is tagged with the date of service, the mileage at service, the type of service performed, and the shop or source. This metadata structures your archive chronologically and makes it easy for buyers to navigate.
Step Three: Authenticity Analysis
Every document uploaded to AutoArchive is analyzed for the patterns that indicate manipulation. The analysis checks for:
Each document receives a status: Verified, Suspicious, or Flagged for Review. The status and findings are included in the buyer-facing report.
Step Four: Generate and Share Your Report
Your AutoArchive report is a clean, professional document that presents your vehicle's complete service history with the authenticity analysis attached to each record. The report is accessible via a direct link that you can include in listings, share in emails, or post in auction comments.
Buyers can expand each service record to see the original document, review the analysis findings, and verify the information independently.
Step Five: Update as You Go
AutoArchive is a living document. Add new service records after every maintenance event. Your archive grows with the car, and every time you update it, buyers see a current, complete history.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does AutoArchive integrate with BaT, Cars and Bids, or other auction platforms?
AutoArchive generates a shareable report link that works on any platform. Include the link in your listing description on any auction site or private listing platform.
What happens if a document I upload is flagged as Suspicious?
A Suspicious status triggers a review process. Many flagged documents turn out to be legitimate but with minor anomalies, an unusual font substitution, an unusual scan quality, that required a closer look. The process is designed to protect buyers, but it also generates explanations for sellers when genuine documents raise questions.
Is my vehicle data private?
Your archive is private by default. You share your report link selectively, only people you provide the link to can access your report. AutoArchive does not publish your documents to a public database.
