About Carbeam
Get notified about newly listed used cars on FB Marketplace
Carbeam watches Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist for used cars and only tells you about the ones that fit what you want. If you've looked for a car on either site lately, you know how it goes. The same ads get reposted every day, problems are hidden in the last line of the description, and half the filters don't do anything. Carbeam is our attempt at a bit of marketplace de-enshittification. It reads every new listing, including the description and the photos, and works out things like title status, number of owners, transmission and whether the car needs repairs. Then it checks the car against your criteria. There are 15+ filters, and you can search a radius around your town, a few states or the whole US. When a car matches, you get an email or a WhatsApp message minutes after it's posted, so you aren't the 30th person asking "is this still available?" The free trial doesn't need a card.
