The Signal story

Signal is the tech-enabled wholesale platform for cross-border vehicle trade, turning a fragmented, multi-billion-dollar Canada–US dealer category into a single network.

We run the full transaction stack on every vehicle: appraisal, compliance, financing, insurance, payments and remarketing. Proprietary data and AI match US dealers with fresh-titled Canadian inventory, and embedded capital and coverage let Signal guarantee the number on the Canadian side and settle the sale on the US side.

Every vehicle funded
Signal finances vehicles at pick-up and carries the vehicle through the US sale, secured by title in hand and vehicle in our possession.

Every vehicle insured
Embedded insurance coverage runs from the seller's lot to the sale, written into the transaction.
Two sides, one network
Guaranteed numbers in Canada, first claim in the US, and data that compounds with every vehicle.
Our exporting vision through the years
How Signal got here
2017
Started exporting cars ourselves to learn every step of the process firsthand.
2018
Launched the export platform for Canadian dealers: appraisal, logistics and documents in one system.
2019
Became a Registered Importer, taking control of the import process end to end.
2022
First large US and Canadian dealer groups on the platform. Launched the Marketplace, connecting dealers across the border directly.
2023
Added export financing and insurance, so dealers can export without capital constraints.
Today
Instant Offer gives Canadian dealers a firm number on any eligible vehicle. Early Access gives US dealers first claim as those vehicles cross. Scout puts Signal's data in the AI tools dealers already use.
