Detailed Vehicle History (DVH) is a leading provider of comprehensive vehicle history reports and window stickers. Their mission is to empower buyers and sellers with accurate, transparent data on a vehicle’s past—covering everything from accidents and title records to ownership history and more. As the demand for reliable vehicle data grew, DVH partnered with Vehicle Databases to integrate advanced automotive APIs—enhancing the speed, depth, and reliability of their product offerings.
Prior to the integration, DVH faced several key hurdles:
Reports lacked full historical depth, affecting user trust.
Speed and accuracy were pain points for VIN & License Plate Decoding—manual fallback methods led to delays and inconsistency.
Inaccurate pricing weakened user confidence and decision-making.
Users had to manually input VINs, increasing errors and reducing conversions.
Detailed Vehicle History needed real-time data flow to launch their mobile app efficiently.
Absence of past sale records and auction imagery limited engagement and transparency.
DVH integrated a wide range of APIs from Vehicle Databases, each designed to solve specific product limitations:
