58K+ car dealerships in the US.
Traditional databases miss most independents.

Franchised dealerships and independent used car lots are registered through state DMV dealer licensing, reviewed on DealerRater, and listed on Cars.com and CarGurus - none of which B2B databases index. If you want the actual owner of a three-location dealer group, you need a tool that searches those sources.

To build your list in Origami

any city, any brand, any growth signal

AI agents that find dealerships where
they actually list and sell cars.

Dealership owners and GMs aren't building B2B database profiles between lot walks. They're on Google Maps, Cars.com, CarGurus, DealerRater, and state DMV registries. Origami's AI agents search these sources in real time, pulling dealership details, owner names, inventory levels, and growth signals that traditional databases have no way of finding.

State DMV dealer licensing

Every car dealership, franchise or independent, holds a state DMV dealer license. Origami pulls license status, type, and renewal dates from state DMV databases so you can verify a dealer is active and properly licensed before you reach out.

Franchise vs. independent segmentation

A franchised Toyota dealership and an independent used car lot have completely different needs and budgets. Origami segments dealers by franchise affiliation, OEM relationships, and license type, so your pitch matches their actual business model.

Inventory volume as a revenue proxy

A dealership listing 400+ vehicles on Cars.com is moving serious volume and likely investing in growth. Origami tracks inventory counts across listing platforms as a real-time indicator of dealership size, revenue, and purchasing power.

DealerRater reviews as a quality signal

DealerRater is the Yelp of car dealerships. High-rated dealers invest in customer experience and are more likely to invest in vendor tools. Origami surfaces DealerRater scores and review velocity to help you prioritize dealerships that value their reputation.

Frequently asked questions.

Can Origami find car dealerships owners and decision-makers?

Yes - Origami searches Google Maps, industry directories, licensing databases, and the live web to find car dealerships along with verified owner names, emails, and phone numbers. Traditional databases like Apollo and ZoomInfo have poor coverage of this vertical because they rely on social profile data, which most car dealerships owners don't maintain.

Why can't I find car dealerships in Apollo or ZoomInfo?

Apollo and ZoomInfo index social profiles and enterprise firmographics. Most car dealerships owners are missing from traditional B2B databases or enterprise records. Origami is built differently - it searches Google Maps, state licensing boards, industry-specific directories, review sites, and real-time web data to find car dealerships that traditional B2B databases miss entirely.

What information does Origami return for car dealerships?

Origami returns company name, owner/decision-maker name, verified email, direct phone number, address, Google rating, review count, employee count, and any available growth signals like recent hires, new locations, or service expansions. All contact data is verified in real time.

How is Origami different from Apollo, ZoomInfo, or Clay?
  • Cheaper: Paid plans from $99/month.
  • Simpler: Start with one prompt, no filters, booleans, or new tool to learn.
  • Same depth: We integrate the same kinds of data sources as Clay, without giving up simplicity.
How accurate is the contact data for car dealerships?

Emails are 95%+ accurate. Origami waterfall-enriches across multiple providers and verifies in real time. Phone numbers are validated the same way. For car dealerships specifically, Origami cross-references multiple sources to ensure you're reaching the actual owner or decision-maker, not a generic info@ address.

Can I search for car dealerships by city or state?

Yes. Just describe what you're looking for - "Find car dealerships in Phoenix with 4+ stars and 10+ employees" - and Origami handles the rest. You can filter by any combination of location, size, ratings, reviews, hiring activity, or growth signals.

Can I import my own list of car dealerships to enrich?

Yes. Upload a CSV of your existing car dealerships contacts and Origami will fill in missing data - verified emails, direct phone numbers, owner names, and company details. You can also use your existing list to find lookalike companies that match the same profile.

What data sources does Origami use?

Origami aggregates 15+ sources including Google Maps, social company profiles, job postings, tech stack data, state licensing databases, industry directories, review sites, and real-time email and phone verification. The combination gives Origami coverage that no single database can match.

Does Origami include social and email sequencing?

Yes - and it's free on every paid plan. The built-in Sequencer runs multi-step social and email cadences from your own connected accounts. Up to 10 steps per channel, unlimited sends, multi-account rotation, and one shared inbox for replies. No add-on, no per-seat fee, no exporting to Instantly or Smartlead.

How does pricing work?

Usage is spent per step - fetches, research, and enrichments each cost different amounts. Plans start at $99/mo for $165 of usage. Most users find a single list of 50-100 leads costs a few dollars.
