Bundled bulk tools
Fixed per-row
Pay for columns you don't need.
Most bulk tools ship a single per-row price covering decode + specs + everything. If you only want decode for auction-lane prep, you pay for the rest anyway.
Bulk VIN enrichment
Pick what you need. Pay for what you pick.
Upload a CSV. Pick from five enrichments. À-la-carte pricing per row, per column.
The problem
Bulk vehicle data is all-or-nothing or roll-your-own.
Roll-your-own
Days of plumbing
Concurrency, retries, partial-failure, output formatting — every time.
Sign the API contract, write the integration, handle rate limits, ship a spreadsheet emitter. By the time it works, the deal is closed.
Per-VIN report tools
One at a time
Doesn't scale past 20 vehicles.
Single-VIN tools (including Carriage's own) are designed for one vehicle at a time. Running 500 by hand isn't viable.
What you get
Five enrichments. Pick any subset.
- 01
VIN decode — $0.05/row
Year, make, model, trim, body, drive, engine, transmission. Selected by default.
- 02
Specs + MSRP — $0.05/row
Base MSRP, seating, EPA city + highway mpg, fuel type.
- 03
NHTSA recalls — $0.05/row
Open-recall count + concatenated NHTSA campaign IDs.
- 04
5-year TCO — $0.10/row
Depreciation, fuel, insurance, maintenance, total — ZIP-localized.
- 05
Comparable listings — $0.20/row
Same year / make / model in 200mi radius. Returns count + median price + median miles.
How it works
Upload. Pick. Pay. Download.
01
Upload
A column named "vin" is required. Optional "zip" improves comp + TCO accuracy.
02
Pick
Check enrichments — the total updates live. $5 minimum per upload.
03
Pay + download
XLSX (default) or CSV. Per-row failures land on a Diagnostics tab.
Pricing
À la carte. No subscription.

Defensibility
What this is. What it isn't.
Suitable for
- Auction-lane prep: decode, specs, recalls.
- Fleet operations: decode, TCO, comps across 1K+ vehicles.
- Lender/lessor portfolio reviews: decode, comps.
- Marketplace inventory: decode, specs, comps.
- Insurance total-loss triage: decode, recalls, comps.
Not for
- Statute-anchored individual FMV. See per-VIN Carriage products.
- USPAP-grade appraisals. Engage a licensed appraiser.
- Title or accident history: Carfax/AutoCheck territory.
- Real-time streaming. This is a batch tool.
Carriage Enrich is a bulk utility. Every column is a thin wrapper over a single data endpoint — no Carriage synthesis. The Diagnostics sheet surfaces every per-row failure so the buyer can audit the run end-to-end.
Frequently asked
Questions worth answering up front.
- How big a batch can I upload?
- Practical limit: ~1,500 rows × 4–5 enrichments. Larger batches finish but the browser may time out before download. >5K rows: email sales@.
- What happens if an enrichment fails on a row?
- The Data sheet keeps the row with whichever enrichments succeeded; the Diagnostics tab lists the failures. Per-row failures don't block the rest of the batch and are charged at full rate (retries already mitigate transient issues).
- Where's the FMV column?
- FMV is Carriage's own methodology, not one of these data enrichments. For per-VIN FMV, run one of the per-VIN Carriage products (Probate, Donation, Chapter, Ward, Split). A future bulk product may run that methodology in batch.
- Are the comp medians a comparative-market analysis?
- No. The `comps` enrichment returns count + median price + median miles directly from the retail-listings data feed — no mileage adjustment, no condition / title multipliers. It's a market snapshot, not a defensible valuation.
- XLSX vs CSV?
- XLSX for humans (typed cells, currency formatting, separate Diagnostics tab). CSV for downstream pipelines that want flat strings.
- Do you store the uploaded VINs?
- No. Uploads are processed in-memory and discarded. Per-VIN data responses are cached at the chassis level for 1 hour to keep margin healthy on overlapping batches.
