"I caught more in the first 30 days than what it will cost me for the next 10 years! Not to mention I also have used it successfully as a sales tool during several TO's."

The average dealer running 120 appraisals a month will catch 9 vehicles a month — or 108 a year — where someone cleared the codes less than 50 miles before your appraisal.
These are gross killers. Often the dash lights won't come back on until full drive cycles have completed — long after the vehicle is already on your lot.
"We had an arbitration problem. Now scan every vehicle when it comes on the lot from auction and haven't missed once since!"

Even if you've got that one manager who refuses to save money and scan every car — here's how much you'll still catch scanning at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.

"Appraisal Pro is fantastic. It has saved us tens of thousands of dollars in the five months we've been using it... There are no more fast ones being pulled on us when someone clears a code before bringing a vehicle in. It has been an invaluable tool for our dealership and has completely changed the way we appraise trades."

Annual Recon Caught — Conservative Estimate
And none of this counts what the mileage-based risk assessment is worth on the sales side — a documented, mileage-aware condition story that justifies your trade number, defends front-end gross, and sells the reconditioning to the customer. That value sits on top of every number here.
"I have actually been able to scan 3 cars today. One was a perfect example of a car not having a current check engine light on, but had stored codes for a fuel pump issue. I look forward to using the tool on every appraisal."
