The most expensive surprises come after the handshake. Most buyers find out after they've paid — on OpenKeys the record shows before, every claim with its source and its date.

Built on what the regulators already tell you to do.

Alberta and BC regulators publish a checklist for buying a used car — history, liens, VIN, inspection. Most people never see it. OpenKeys builds it into every listing, so the check is done before you ever message a seller.

Why OpenKeys

Other sites compete for listings.
We compete for trust.

Classifieds win by having the most cars and charging to lift yours above them. That's a race for volume — and it's why a listing can say anything. OpenKeys is built the other way round: every claim carries its source, every seller can prove who they are, and nothing gets buried because someone paid. The product isn't the listings. It's whether you can believe them.

Step 3

Meet and close

Message through OpenKeys, meet, finish in person. Numbers stay hidden until you share them.

Verified isn't a badge. It's the standard.

Three things get proven on OpenKeys — each shown with its source, each optional but visible either way.

Verified Seller

The person is who they say

Sellers can confirm their identity for a dated mark — so a buyer knows it's a real owner, not a curber in disguise.

Verified History

The past is on the record

Accidents, title and odometer, confirmed against Carfax Canada and shown with the date they came from.

Verified Listing

Every claim shows its source

Each fact is labelled confirmed, seller-stated, or no report yet. Nothing is dressed up as proven when it isn't.

What every listing carries

01

Source tags on every fact

Confirmed · seller-stated · no report yet. The third state is shown, not skipped.

02

History facts, checked

Accidents, title and odometer — confirmed against Carfax Canada and shown with their source.

03

ID confirmed, by choice

Sellers who confirm identity carry a dated mark. Buyers see who did — and who didn't.

04

Straightforward first contact

Reach a seller through the platform to ask the basics — condition, viewing, history — without handing over your number first.

05

Neighbourhood, not address

Location shows at the area level. Contact runs through the platform until you share it yourself.

06

No pay-to-rank at launch

Free listings surface on equal footing. Getting seen isn't a paid package.

Selling a car?

List free at launch — and keep the 10–15% a dealer buyout takes.

Your number stays off the page, and the map shows the neighbourhood, not the address. We're onboarding the first sellers by hand.

What's different here

1

Every fact shows its source

Not just "Rebuilt" — but where that came from and when. Missing data says so, instead of staying quiet.

2

Free listings get seen

No paying to lift your listing out of the pile. Everything surfaces on equal footing.

3

Reachable, not exposed

Buyers message through OpenKeys. Your address and number stay yours until you share them.
