Based in Irvine, California, Bidbus operates an AI-driven consumer-to-business online auction marketplace that connects individual used car sellers directly with automotive dealership buyers. The platform facilitates weekly live auctions where private vehicle owners list their cars for competitive bidding, providing dealers with a steady supply of vetted inventory without traditional haggling.

The enterprise recently secured a $3.3 million seed funding round to support its ongoing geographic expansion and further artificial intelligence platform development. Demonstrating significant year-over-year transaction growth, the marketplace successfully facilitated the sale of more than 2,400 used vehicles throughout the duration of 2025.
