V10 Data Inc. - Automotive Data-as-a-Service platform
(2013 - 2017)
www.v10data.com
Welcome to the future of Automotive Data. V10Data is the automotive marketplace, we are the leaders in the capture, treatment and delivery of third-party automotive data.
In the realm of information technology, data consists of an elementary description, often coded, of a certain reality (thing, transaction, market, etc.). It’s imperative that data be tagged, organized and documented in such a way that it can easily be called up and manipulated by users, and in a way that maximizes its value.
Data is a precious natural resource for content builders, as it provides added value for consumers and companies, who can use it to make informed business decisions, quickly and with precision (for example calculating the anticipated residual value of a vehicle, arrived at by analyzing the sales history in a certain market, etc.), and to create valuable new content by combining data from different sources. One of the challenges in achieving this is to obtain data that is standardized and thus both comparable and verifiable.
V10 data is like a supermarket for data, where one can buy and sell data – data on cars themselves (engine, make, mechanics, road tests, etc.), different automotive markets (news, market data, etc.), and automotive consumers (profiles, purchasing processes, etc.).
V10 data allows those who own automotive-related data to make it accessible to a market of buyers, and allows these buyers to obtain reliable, up-to-date and standardized data. In essence, we help suppliers and buyers of automotive data to increase their revenues, and reduce costs and risks.
We help automotive data Vendors and Buyers increase revenues, reduce costs and reduce risks.
