DON'T JUST FIND THE PROBLEM

Know what to say at the dealership.

PencilVerdict turns flagged areas into specific questions and negotiation points you can use before you sign.

EXAMPLE NEGOTIATION LANGUAGE
3 ITEMS FLAGGED
“Before we discuss the monthly payment, I want the deal broken down line by line. Please remove the $1,295 protection package and give me a revised buyer’s order showing the selling price, every fee and add-on, my trade value and payoff, and the total amount financed separately. Then quote me your best available APR at the same term. Don’t extend the loan, change my down payment, or move numbers around just to lower the payment. Once those figures are clean, we can talk about the final monthly payment.”
Example only. Your actual negotiation plan is based on the deal information you upload or enter.

FAQ

Before you buy.

What do I get for $17?

One PencilVerdict license key with access to the car deal analyzer and up to 30 deal scans. The analyzer supports finance and lease deal structures.

How do I use it after purchase?

Your license key is provided after checkout. Open PencilVerdict, enter the license key and the analyzer will unlock on that device.

Can I scan a dealer worksheet?

Yes. PencilVerdict supports a dealer worksheet, screenshot or PDF upload, and you can also enter the deal manually.

Does PencilVerdict guarantee savings?

No. PencilVerdict is an educational analysis tool. It helps you understand the structure of the deal and identify areas worth reviewing or negotiating, but it cannot guarantee a dealer will change a price, fee or rate.

Is this legal or financial advice?

No. PencilVerdict provides general educational analysis. Review your actual contract and disclosures, and seek qualified advice when appropriate.

I already bought it. Where do I go?
