Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is vehicle acquisition software that helps franchise and independent dealers buy used cars directly from private sellers in their market, beyond trade-ins and the auction lane.
The platform pulls for-sale-by-owner listings from 25+ online marketplaces into one dashboard, with VIN decoding, market valuation, automated outreach, and seller conversation tracking. VAN works with vAuto, CARFAX, Experian AutoCheck, and most dealer CRMs, and runs inside VINCUE Buy Center Pro as VAN Mode. On VAN Accelerate™, it replies automatically to KBB ICO and AccuTrade leads.
For dealers who want private-party inventory without hiring and managing a buyer themselves, VAN Managed Buyer™ provides a full-time buyer, hired and managed by VAN. Every plan includes an Acquisition Coach™.
Founded in 2013, VAN serves dealers in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Plans start at $1,695 per month. To see VAN on your market, call 855-952-4949.

TE Recruit™ is recruiting software built specifically for staffing and recruiting agencies that want to simplify operations, strengthen candidate and client relationships, and make more placements.
Developed by Top Echelon, a trusted recruiting technology provider for nearly four decades, TE Recruit combines an applicant tracking system (ATS) and recruiting CRM in one intuitive platform. Teams can manage candidates, clients, contacts, companies, job orders, pipelines, communications, tasks, and placement activity from a single workspace.
TE Recruit helps recruiters reduce manual work and stay focused on revenue-generating activity with customizable workflows, email sequences, automation, resume parsing, candidate sourcing, job posting, activity tracking, dashboards, and reporting. AI-powered tools help teams work faster, including job description generation, search assistance, and AI People Search, which uses semantic search to find relevant candidates based on meaning and context, not only exact keyword matches. AI People Search is available with TE Recruit Pro.
Built-in integrations connect TE Recruit with email, job boards, calling and texting platforms, and other tools used across the recruiting workflow. An open API, available with TE Recruit Pro, gives firms additional flexibility to connect systems, share data, and build custom workflows.
TE Recruit is designed for independent recruiters, executive search firms, and small to midsize staffing agencies that need powerful recruiting technology without unnecessary complexity. Guided onboarding, training, and responsive customer support are included, helping teams adopt the platform quickly and get long-term value from their investment.
For firms that want to expand beyond their own database and job pipeline, TE Network™ is available as an optional add-on. TE Network is Top Echelon’s split-placement recruiter network, giving members access to additional candidates, job orders, and collaboration opportunities. TE Recruit and TE Network can be used together through the integrated Network Feed for maximum impact, or either solution can be used on its own.
With intuitive workflows, modern AI and automation, strong integrations, predictable pricing, and support from a team that understands recruiting, TE Recruit helps agencies improve productivity, increase visibility, and grow without adding unnecessary software complexity.
