01 / The problem
A single trade-in number hides the assumptions that matter: vehicle configuration, mileage, condition, comparable inventory, and how the market is moving.
02 / The build
I designed a multi-route Next.js product around guided appraisal, dynamic value ranges, saved vehicles, history, profiles, and a browser extension that brings the workflow closer to listing research.
03 / The result
The product turns a one-off estimate into an inspectable workspace—useful whether someone is selling, shopping, or tracking a vehicle over time.
