If you're looking for a free car shopping assistant that can analyze millions of cars and spit out results instantly, CoPilot could be just the ticket. The AI-powered service helps consumers through the entire car buying process, scouring virtually every dealer 24/7 and offering personalized rankings based on your preferences. CoPilot is designed to be free of bias and to avoid steering you toward cars with hidden fees, so it's a good companion for car shoppers.
Another alternative is Bumper, which offers detailed vehicle history reports and VIN decoding. It's not a car shopping assistant per se, but it can offer useful information about a car's history, including whether it's been in accidents or been salvaged, whether it's got a clean title and what its value is on the market. That can be useful information for buyers, sellers and people trying to maintain a car. The service offers mobile apps for iPhone and Android devices and a free VIN decoder.
