What it does not do
The limits, on the site, before you ask.
Every tool has edges. Finding them after you have moved your inventory is how software loses a yard for good, so here are ours while it still costs you nothing to walk away.
By design
These are decisions, not gaps. They are not on a roadmap because we do not intend to change them.
- It does not publish anything without a person
- The agent drafts. A human approves. There is no setting that turns this off, no bulk auto-publish, and no "trusted mode" after a hundred good drafts. If you want software that lists parts while you sleep, this is the wrong product and we would rather you knew now.
- It does not reprice behind your back
- A suggested price is a suggestion, shown next to the sales history it came from. Nothing changes a live price on its own.
- It does not invent a part number it cannot verify
- Where a number cannot be established from the donor vehicle and the teardown, the field is left empty and flagged rather than filled with a confident guess. An empty field costs you a minute. A wrong interchange number costs you a return and a feedback score.
- It is not a yard management system
- It does not run your dismantling floor, your yard map, your scrap tickets or your accounting. If you run Powerlink, Pinnacle, Checkmate or ITrack, YardTerminal sits alongside it and handles listing and channel inventory. It does not replace it, and any tool claiming to replace all of it in one step is selling you a migration, not a product.
Not yet
Real gaps. They are here so you can decide whether they matter to you, not because we are proud of them.
- Three channels, not ten
- eBay Motors, a Shopify storefront, and your counter. That is what exists. Not Facebook Marketplace, not Google Shopping, not Car-Part.com. When one of those ships it will appear on the pricing page with a date, not on a slide with a checkmark.
- No licensed interchange database
- Fitment is built from the donor vehicle rather than looked up in a licensed interchange catalogue. Part numbering is interchange-compatible; it is not Hollander, and we do not hold a license to that data. If your listing process depends on an interchange lookup today, this is the limit most likely to matter to you.
- No mobile app
- It runs in a browser, including a phone browser. There is nothing in an app store.
- Ninety days of history, not forever
- Records of an ended listing are kept ninety days past the sale - long enough to cover eBay returns and most payment disputes - and then removed. If you need a multi-year archive for accounting, export it.
Because it has not launched
Statements of fact about a product in private beta.
- There are no customers to reference yet
- No logos, no testimonials, no case studies, no "yards save 12 hours a week". Not because they are under NDA - because they do not exist. The first real number a yard gives us will be the loudest thing on this site.
- Pricing is not final
- The plans shown are indicative and labelled as such. They are not an offer and may change before launch. Nothing is charged during the beta, and a founding rate is confirmed in writing before any payment is taken.
- It is not proven at scale
- It is built for yards running thousands of parts across several channels, and it has not yet run one for a year. Everything here is a design that has been tested, not a track record.
If one of these is a dealbreaker, tell us.
A limit that stops you buying is the most useful thing you can send us, and it reaches a person who can change the product.
