Frequently Asked Questions About Vehicle History Reports

We partner with leading auto data sources to combine the best available information for our customers, all in one place. We are also proud to be an approved NMVTIS data provider. NMVTIS is a program mandated by the DOJ to collect information from Departments of Motor Vehicles nationwide.

You will be able to access your report instantly after payment. All reports are also accessible in your search history.

If you choose our unlimited search plan, you can run as many reports as you want! We offer the option of additional premium data points for an extra charge on a per-report basis.
