Topmarq
An automotive technology company that streamlined vehicle selling and acquisition for private sellers and car dealerships
For Private Sellers
Topmarq offered a platform where individuals could receive multiple cash offers from dealers nationwide by simply providing their vehicle's license plate or VIN, along with details like mileage, condition, and accident history. This enabled sellers to compare offers side by side, similar to how travel sites compare flight prices, helping them maximize their vehicle's value.
For Dealerships
Dealers utilized Topmarq's AI-powered tools to efficiently acquire vehicles from private sellers. The platform automated bidding processes, scheduled seller appointments, and included features like an AI-based vehicle condition extractor and a multi-channel private party vehicle finder. This technology reduced manual workload and enhanced inventory acquisition strategies.
A Note from the Founder of Topmarq
Thank you for your interest in Topmarq and for supporting us throughout our journey. Building the platform was a labor of love — aimed at making the car selling and buying process easier for everyone.
After several years of hard work, we made the difficult decision to wind down Topmarq. Despite strong traction and a loyal community of users, we faced significant headwinds with fundraising and broader market conditions that ultimately made it unsustainable to continue.
I've since moved on to a different industry. I'm now focused on building devtools for software developers — an entirely separate venture from automotive technology.
If you're curious about what I'm working on next, or want to stay in touch, you can learn more about my current project below.
With sincere thanks,

My Current Project: DebuggAI
I'm now building DebuggAI, a different venture in a new industry. Topmarq was an automotive startup. DebuggAI is a devtools platform for debugging and end-to-end testing. They are not related. DebuggAI transforms how developers test their applications with AI-powered automation and plain English commands.
