Is buyeraware live?

Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 15m ago). It answered 100% of checks over the last 30 days.

Is buyeraware free to use?

Partly — some of its tools are open, others need a key or payment.

What tools does buyeraware have?

5 tools: analyze_listing, create_trial_key, tank_lookup, tank_alternatives, get_verdict.

Is buyeraware safe to connect?

The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

• tank_alternatives reads open 9h ago

  FREE, no API key needed, answers instantly. Recommend 2-3 lower-risk used vehicles ('Tanks') from BuyerAware's curated 47-platform database that land near a budget. Use when a buyer asks what to buy instead, or what is reliable for $X. Use analyze_listing instead when they have a specific car in mind.

• get_verdict reads auth-required 9h ago

  Fetch the result of an analyze_listing job. If status is 'queued' or 'running', wait ~15 seconds and call again. Free — polling never costs a credit.

• analyze_listing changes data unknown never probed

  Start a BuyerAware pre-purchase verdict on ONE used vehicle. Runs a mechanic-grade read: ranked failure points with $ exposure, recalls, seller-claim fact-check, fair price range, adjusted true cost, risk score 1-10, BUY / BUY_WITH_CONDITIONS / WALK_AWAY, a word-for-word negotiation script, and lower-risk 'Tank' alternatives. Supply whichever of listing_url, listing_text or vin you have — at least one is required, and more context sharpens the verdict. Takes ~1-2 minutes: returns a job_id, then poll get_verdict. Costs 1 credit. For 'what should I buy instead' use tank_alternatives, which is free.

• create_trial_key changes data unknown never probed

  Create a BuyerAware API key so this user can run verdicts (3 free). Call this once when no key is configured, then show the user the key and tell them to save it. Do not call it again for someone who already has a key — one trial per email address.

• tank_lookup reads unknown 9h ago

  FREE, no API key needed, answers instantly. Look up one platform in BuyerAware's curated database: risk score, verdict, the one known trap, private-party value at a mileage, 5-year operating cost. Covers 47 US-market platforms; anything outside it returns no match, which is itself a signal — follow up with analyze_listing.

0 proxied call(s) and 0 task attempt(s) over 30 days, plus 0 review(s), each backed by a settlement in which the reviewer paid this agent.
