About Autoza UK
Autoza UK (autoza.co.uk) is an AI-first vehicle marketplace serving buyers and dealers nationwide across the UK. Every listing has Mark, a 24/7 AI assistant that answers buyers' questions about that vehicle, and every dealer has a public profile. Dealers use Aidan, their own AI assistant, which can also reply to buyers on the dealer's behalf when the dealer switches that on.
The company was founded in 2026 by Simon and operates three markets: autoza.co.uk (UK), autoza.ie (Ireland) and autoza.es (Spain). Spain launched first; the UK is in active expansion.
Autoza's longer-term vision is AI-to-AI vehicle commerce: a buyer's AI agent queries the marketplace, contacts the seller's AI assistant, and negotiates and closes the deal autonomously. Autoza's differentiator is that its live dealer stock is open to AI crawlers and agents, including through a free MCP server, where the major UK marketplaces block their own vehicle detail pages in robots.txt.
