Dealer-operations software

From bought to ready for sale, with the record to prove it.

Carifly is a dealer-operations system for UK used-car dealers. It follows one journey: a vehicle you have bought, through arrival and preparation, to internally ready, with a clear record of who did what and when.

In development. Not yet open to new dealerships.

The journey Carifly covers

Carifly starts after the purchase. It records what happens to each vehicle until an authorised person marks it ready for sale.

  1. Step 1

    Receive on arrival

    Check the registration and chassis number against what was expected, and record mileage, keys and key documents.

  2. Step 2

    Prepare

    Plan preparation jobs with an owner and a due date, track blockers, and keep completion evidence with each job.

  3. Step 3

    Record costs

    Record itemised cost lines in pounds and pence, with supplier, reference and date. Corrections stay visible as history.

  4. Step 4

    Decide ready

    Review what is done, what is blocked and what evidence is missing. Only an authorised person can mark a vehicle ready.

Built for the people in a dealership

Carifly is designed around the people who work on a vehicle, and the record shows who did what and when.

Buyer or stock controller

Keeps the stock list accurate and sees where every vehicle stands after purchase.

Prep or workshop manager

Assigns preparation jobs, sets due dates and records blockers and evidence.

Forecourt staff

Checks what is ready, what is in preparation and what is still missing.

Accounts reader

Reviews itemised costs against each vehicle, with a visible correction history.

Separate by design

Each dealership’s data is kept separate from every other dealership’s, enforced in the database. Access is by named user and role, with sign-in for named staff only. A record of changes is kept as append-only history, so nothing is silently overwritten.

Carifly works in a normal web browser on desktop and on a phone. There is no native phone app. It has light and dark appearance.
