OVERVIEW

Automobilia

Automobilia is an online platform built exclusively for vehicle buyers, sellers, and dealers in the Dominican Republic, and increasingly, insurance partners too. It offers more than a place to buy or sell: users stay connected and informed about vehicles of every kind, from an ordinary family car to an expensive sports vehicle. What began as a straightforward buying-and-selling platform has grown, through continuous collaboration between Rev9 and the client, into a full market-intelligence platform now trusted by dealers, buyers, and insurance partners alike.

CHALLENGE

Automobilia's challenges shifted as the platform grew. At first, no API existed to track real Dominican Republic vehicle demand, so the team had to research the gap and build a solution from scratch. A premium market-intelligence capability then carried a subscription cost too steep for everyday dealers, calling for a custom, cheaper data integration to stay competitive. Later, an entirely new type of user needed to be won over: insurance companies, who needed the same market accuracy dealers relied on, plus a professional experience built around how they actually work.

SOLUTION

Rev9 built Automobilia across four phases. The first refined the platform's design and delivered core vehicle listings with photo uploads. The second introduced a dealer panel and content management tools alongside a direct buyer-seller chat feature. The third brought a cost-effective, custom market-intelligence data integration to make premium insights viable for everyday dealers, while the chat experience matured into direct deal-making, including wholesale swap and exchange transactions. The fourth extended the platform's trusted market intelligence into a professional-grade experience for insurance partners, complete with dedicated reporting, recordkeeping, and team collaboration tools.

OUTCOMES

Automobilia is now a trusted vehicle marketplace and market-intelligence platform serving individual buyers, dealers, and insurance organizations alike. The platform delivers real-time, Dominican Republic-specific vehicle market data built from scratch when no equivalent tool existed, a custom, cost-effective data integration that made premium market intelligence viable for everyday dealers, an in-chat deal-making experience that grew into wholesale swap and exchange transactions, and a dedicated insurance offering with reporting, recordkeeping, and team collaboration tools.
