Effective date: March 20, 2026

1. About BeforeYouBid

beforeyoubid.ai provides AI-generated research reports to assist enthusiast car buyers in evaluating vehicle listings. Reports are informational tools only and do not constitute professional mechanical, legal, or financial advice.

2. No Warranty

All reports are generated by artificial intelligence and may contain errors, omissions, or outdated information. BeforeYouBid makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of any report. You use all reports entirely at your own risk.

3. Not a Substitute for Professional Inspection

BeforeYouBid reports are research aids, not a substitute for an in-person pre-purchase inspection by a qualified independent mechanic. Any bid figures, value estimates, or investment assessments are directional only and are not a guarantee of value or outcome. BEFOREYOUBID EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO ANY VEHICLE PURCHASE, BID, OR FINANCIAL DECISION MADE IN RELIANCE ON ANY REPORT OR CONTENT PROVIDED BY THIS SERVICE. You assume all risk associated with any vehicle transaction. Always commission an independent pre-purchase inspection before completing any purchase.

4. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, BeforeYouBid and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or reliance on any report or any content on this site, including losses arising from vehicle purchases or bids made on the basis of report content.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree to use BeforeYouBid for lawful personal research purposes only. You may not resell, redistribute, or reproduce report content without written permission. Automated scraping or bulk requests are prohibited.

6. Payments and Refunds

BeforeYouBid is free to use during beta. No payment is required to generate reports during this period. This may change in the future, at which point updated terms will apply to any paid features introduced.

7. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

Data Sources

Market intelligence on this platform is compiled from publicly available sold-result data across online auction platforms. BeforeYouBid does not reproduce, republish, or claim ownership of any auction platform's listings, photos, or editorial content. All pricing data represents derived statistical analysis of public sale records.

No Financial Advice

Reports generated by BeforeYouBid are informational only and do not constitute financial, investment, or purchasing advice. All bidding and purchase decisions remain solely with the user.
