Key differences
Same core data source: Both CarVouch and Experian AutoCheck use Experian finance, stolen and write-off records. The core provenance check is identical.
Salvage auction history: CarVouch includes salvage records (Copart, BCA, IAA) showing damage descriptions and auction mileage. AutoCheck does not. This is critical for spotting hidden accident history.
AI advert analysis: CarVouch reads the advert text for red flags, contradictions and pressure language, then generates specific seller questions and a viewing checklist. AutoCheck has no advert-analysis feature.
Guarantee size: AutoCheck's £30k guarantee is larger than CarVouch's £20k. Both are underwritten by Experian. Claims are rare — most buyers value the salvage and AI features over guarantee size.
Price: AutoCheck is £2 cheaper (£7.99 vs £9.99). If you only need core finance/stolen/write-off data and do not care about salvage history or advert analysis, AutoCheck is better value.
