— 01 / WHY PARTNER WITH US —

Three reasonsthat move the needle.

◆

More dealers transact more often

SENTINEL lowers the cost of bidding decisions. Dealers that join Trader bid on 3-4× more listings than before. Volume on your platform goes up.

◐

Protected from amateur scrapers

We don't scrape. We sign API agreements, respect rate limits, identify ourselves with RSA-4096, and absorb the bot traffic that hits your platform.

◊

Compliance-grade auditability

Every bid we relay carries a cryptographic origin signature. If something goes wrong, we can prove who decided what, when, with which authorization.

— 02 / THREE INTEGRATION MODES —
