VIN Audit API

US Vehicle History Reports & Valuation Data

One Auto API provides access to VIN Audit US Vehicle History Reports and US and Canadian retail and wholesale valuations through a single API, alongside data from other vehicle-data providers.

About VIN Audit

Vehicle history and valuations for smarter decisions

Every used vehicle decision involves two questions: what do we know about the vehicle’s past, and what is it worth today? One Auto API partners with VIN Audit to help businesses answer both through integrated vehicle history and valuation data.

Our VIN Audit vehicle history reports are available for US vehicles and are designed for business use. We also provide access to retail market values and wholesale valuations in both the US and Canada, giving dealers and automotive platforms data they can use throughout the buying, appraisal and selling journey.

Check history before committing

A vehicle can look attractive on price and condition while carrying history that changes the commercial decision. Dealers, repair shops and software providers need a way to bring relevant history into their existing workflows before they buy, work on or sell a vehicle.

VIN Audit’s US Vehicle History Report helps businesses investigate a vehicle’s recorded past by VIN. History information can support stock acquisition, part-exchange appraisal and other used vehicle decisions where an undiscovered issue could affect value or risk. Bringing the report into a familiar system also makes it easier for teams to review findings as part of their normal process.

For a dealer, the aim is to understand what is being taken into stock before agreeing a price. For a repair shop, history can provide useful context when assessing a vehicle. For a software provider, an API-based report can make history checks available at the point its business customers need them.

Start with Vehicle History Report Lite

A full history report is valuable, but it may not be needed at the first stage of every enquiry. VIN Audit’s Vehicle History Report Lite, or VHR Lite, gives businesses an initial screening option for US vehicles.

A dealer or buying platform can use VHR Lite early in a workflow to identify vehicles that warrant a closer look. If the opportunity progresses, the business can run a full Vehicle History Report later, when more detail is needed to support the decision. This staged approach helps align the depth of the check with the stage of the transaction.

For example, a business assessing a large number of potential trade-ins may want an early history signal before spending time on a detailed appraisal. Once a vehicle is likely to be acquired, the full report can form part of the final review. Software providers can build the same sequence into their products, helping users follow a consistent process.

Understand the retail opportunity

Knowing a vehicle’s history is only one part of a sound acquisition decision. Dealers also need to understand its likely retail value: what opportunity does the vehicle represent once it has been prepared and offered for sale?

VIN Audit retail market valuation data, available through One Auto API for the US and Canada, helps businesses assess that opportunity. It can inform part-exchange decisions, stock purchases and the price at which a vehicle is advertised.

Competitive pricing matters after acquisition too. Set an asking price too high and a vehicle may struggle to attract buyers; set it too low and margin can be lost. Retail valuation data gives pricing teams a reference point as they position inventory in the market, while leaving room for their judgement about condition, preparation, location and demand.

Use wholesale values to protect margin

A vehicle’s retail potential does not tell a dealer what it should pay to acquire it. Preparation costs, risk and the possibility of disposing of the vehicle through trade channels all affect the decision.

VIN Audit wholesale valuations use dealer auction pricing to provide another view of value. This helps dealers assess trade-ins and stock purchases against the wholesale market, including vehicles they may choose not to retail themselves.

Looking at retail and wholesale values together can make the commercial picture clearer. A dealer can consider the potential selling price, the likely acquisition cost and the margin available between them before making an offer. If a vehicle is better suited to wholesale disposal, the valuation can help inform that route as well.

Bring the checks into your workflow

One Auto API makes VIN Audit history and valuation endpoints available for integration into dealer systems, repair shop workflows and automotive software. Businesses can screen US vehicle history early, request a fuller report when needed, and use retail and wholesale values to support buying and pricing decisions across the US and Canada.

The result is a more connected view of each vehicle: its recorded history, its retail opportunity and its wholesale value, available where teams already make their decisions.

FAQ

What is included in a VIN Audit Vehicle History Report?

VIN Audit’s US Vehicle History Report combines NMVTIS information with independent provenance data, to provide title and brand history, salvage and insurance records, accidents, thefts and previous sales listings where available. Businesses can use it to investigate a vehicle’s recorded past before purchasing, appraising or selling it.

What is the difference between Vehicle History Report Lite and the full report?

Vehicle History Report Lite is designed for early screening. It highlights information such as salvage indicators, accidents and previous sales listings, helping teams identify vehicles that need further review. A full Vehicle History Report provides a more detailed check, including NMVTIS-backed title and brand history, later in the buying or appraisal journey.

Are VIN Audit Vehicle History Reports available for Canada?

The VIN Audit Vehicle History Report and Vehicle History Report Lite available through One Auto API cover US vehicles. Retail market value and wholesale valuation endpoints are available for both the US and Canada. Businesses assessing a Canadian vehicle should select the relevant Canadian valuation endpoint.

Who can use VIN Audit vehicle history data through One Auto API?

VIN Audit vehicle history data is offered for approved business-to-business, internal-use workflows. Typical users include dealers, repair shops, vehicle buying businesses and software providers checking vehicles for their own business operations. The reports are not licensed for redistribution or publication as consumer-facing vehicle history reports; contact us to verify a proposed use case.

How can VIN Audit’s retail and wholesale valuations help dealers?

Retail market values help dealers assess a vehicle’s selling opportunity and set a competitive asking price. Wholesale valuations draw on dealer auction pricing to inform trade-in offers, stock purchases and disposal decisions. Considering both values alongside vehicle condition and history helps dealers assess potential margin before committing to a purchase.
