The short answer
Similar surface. Different scope and buying model.
AutoFire is designed to get a small independent lot online quickly at a published software price. Overfuel presents a broader mix of website, digital retail, analytics, mobile management, and managed marketing services through a sales-led package.
Pricing
AutoFire is public; Overfuel is quote-led
AutoFire publishes $0 and $99.99/month plans. Overfuel does not publish a current full-platform price.
Product shape
Focused stack vs broader experience
AutoFire centers the site, inventory, leads, and feeds. Overfuel extends further into digital retail and managed services.
Local SEO
Overfuel has the broader managed offer
Overfuel publicly markets GBP, citations, content, reviews, and reputation. AutoFire currently focuses on the technical site foundation.
Pricing reality
Treat $1,500/month as history, not a quote.
The strongest direct public pricing reference we found is an Indianapolis Business Journal report from 2022 describing Overfuel at roughly $1,500 per month at that time. Overfuel has since expanded its platform and acquired 321 Ignition, so a current package may differ materially. Ask for an itemized quote covering the website, inventory feeds, local SEO, digital retail, setup, support, contract term, and each rooftop.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Overfuel cost?
Overfuel does not publish a current full-platform package price on its public website. A 2022 Indianapolis Business Journal report described its service at about $1,500 per month at that time. Overfuel now sells a broader platform, so dealers should request and verify a current itemized quote. Its separate inventory-syndication offer publicly starts at $99 per month.
Is Overfuel a CRM or DMS?
Overfuel markets websites, inventory management, syndication, digital retail, analytics, a Customer Hub, and a mobile app. Public materials do not establish it as a full traditional DMS replacement. Its iOS listing says deeper CRM integration and lead-management capabilities are being built, so dealers should confirm which CRM workflows are live in the package they are quoted.
Which platform is better for a small independent used-car dealer?
AutoFire is the more direct fit when the priority is a modern inventory website, lead capture, marketplace-ready feeds, transparent pricing, and a self-serve launch. Overfuel may fit better when a dealer wants a broader managed website, digital-retail, local-SEO, analytics, and mobile-app engagement sold through a consultative package.
Does AutoFire require a credit card for the trial?
No. AutoFire starts with a 14-day Pro trial and no credit card is required. After the trial, a dealer can subscribe to Pro for $99.99 per month or continue on Free Kickstart with up to 10 vehicle listings.
