Vast.com is the leading vertical search platform for autos, travel, and real estate, with millions of users a month making purchasing decisions through Vast.com’s network of partner websites. Vast.com improves the online shopping experience with the largest selection, sub-second search times, and intuitive auto, real estate, and vacation rental search that helps users find the best match on the Internet for their needs.

We believe consumers should be able to search for big-ticket items such as cars and real estate from any website on which they are doing research. So instead of creating yet another portal, Vast is a white-label provider that creates an online marketplace for websites such as yours – branded as your website – completely customized to your community of shoppers. We increase your revenue by making sure users love your shopping experience, buy through your site, and come back for more.
