DriveYo Launches AI Platform to Expose Hidden Car Deal Markups and Return $20 Billion to Buyers
The Californer/10343065

NEWARK, Calif. - Californer -- DriveYo, a breakthrough AI-powered platform, is redefining how Americans buy cars and challenging one of the most opaque pricing systems in modern commerce. For decades, the auto industry has operated behind a curtain of hidden margins, complex financing structures, and information asymmetry — costing consumers billions every year.

A $20 Billion Reset in Consumer Favor

DriveYo estimates that over $20 billion annually is extracted from consumers through hidden interest rate markups, non-transparent dealer pricing, misaligned incentives, and information gaps between buyers and sellers. By bringing real-time pricing intelligence and negotiation transparency directly to consumers, DriveYo shifts that value back where it belongs.

"For over 20 years, I was inside the system — I know exactly how deals are structured and how consumers get priced without ever realizing it. DriveYo does not tweak the system — it flips it. We are taking billions that were quietly extracted and putting it back into consumer pockets. This is not optimization. This is correction." — Suraj Viswanathan, Founder and CEO, DriveYo

What DriveYo Does

DriveYo is the first platform to give consumers institutional-level visibility into car deals, including real minimum and maximum monthly payments based on lender programs, buy rate vs. marked-up rates exposed clearly, stacked incentives and rebates with real eligibility logic, inventory intelligence including days-on-lot and market pricing, and negotiation guidance powered by real data. In seconds, buyers know what they should be paying, where the dealer is making money, and how to negotiate with proof.

Not Anti-Dealer — Pro-Transparency

DriveYo is not designed to eliminate dealerships — it is designed to modernize trust. Dealers who embrace transparency will close faster, build stronger relationships, and reduce negotiation friction. Those who rely on opacity will face increasing pressure as consumers become more informed.
