Stilltide

Industrial Equipment Dealer Software

Automate your evaluation workflow - upload equipment photos and get market pricing, specs, and listing-ready reports in minutes instead of hours.

Independent industrial equipment dealers run on speed and margin. A machine sitting in your yard waiting to be priced and listed is margin you haven't captured yet. The faster you can evaluate incoming inventory, price it accurately, and get a listing live, the better the business runs. Stilltide is built around that constraint.

Upload photos of your equipment - JPEG, PNG, or WebP - and Stilltide's AI identifies the machine, researches the current market, and generates a complete PDF report with pricing, full specifications, condition assessment, and listing-ready marketing copy. Evaluations that used to take hours of manual research now take minutes, and the output is immediately usable.

What the Software Does for Dealers

Stilltide handles the research workflow end-to-end so your team can focus on the deal, not the data entry:

Equipment identification from photos. The AI reads your photos - overall machine shots, nameplates, control panels, wear areas - and identifies the make, model, year, and configuration without manual input. Serial numbers visible in photos are captured automatically and checked against your existing evaluations to flag duplicates.

Market pricing with comparable context. Every evaluation returns a price estimate with a confidence score and the supporting data behind it: comparable sales from recent auctions and dealer listings for the same or similar equipment. You get a number and the reasoning - not just a figure from a depreciation table.

Condition assessment built into the report. The AI assesses visible condition from your photos - wear, damage, missing components, and overall presentation - and includes condition notes in the report. That context helps you price accurately and gives buyers the information they need to make decisions faster.

Listing-ready marketing copy. The report includes a machine title, overview, and detailed description ready to copy into your website, auction listing, or sales platform. The descriptions are specific - they name the specs, the condition, the configuration - which is what moves equipment.

PDF export for every evaluation. Every report generates a professional PDF that works for internal records, customer-facing quotes, and documentation for consignors or buyers.

Equipment Categories Stilltide Covers

Stilltide is built for the breadth of inventory an industrial equipment dealer handles:

  • CNC machining centers, lathes, mills, EDM machines, and grinders
  • Construction equipment - excavators, loaders, dozers, backhoes, and skid steers
  • Forklifts, reach trucks, pallet jacks, and warehouse material handling equipment
  • Manufacturing machinery - press brakes, injection molding, stamping presses, and robots
  • Packaging and processing lines
  • Welding equipment and cutting systems

If it shows up in industrial resale, the AI is trained to identify and evaluate it.

How a Dealer Workflow Looks

A piece of equipment comes in. You take photos - overall shots, nameplate, control panel, any wear areas - and upload them in JPEG, PNG, or WebP format. You can upload supporting documents alongside photos: spec sheets, maintenance records, inspection reports.

Stilltide runs the evaluation in two phases. First, equipment identification and spec extraction. Second, market research and pricing. The full report is ready in minutes. You pull the PDF, use the marketing copy for your listing, and have a documented pricing basis for the sale.

For trade-ins, the same workflow applies on the buy side - run the evaluation before you commit to a price rather than after.

Pricing and Credits

The Basic plan is $50/month and includes 20 evaluations per billing cycle - the right volume for an independent dealer running 10-20 machines through the queue per month. Credits reset each cycle. The 7-day free trial gives you time to run real evaluations on your current inventory before committing.

There's no per-evaluation fee, no setup cost, and no contract. Cancel anytime.

A Note on Valuation Estimates

Stilltide provides market-informed pricing estimates based on current comparable sales, equipment condition from your photos, and market conditions at the time of the evaluation. These are informational estimates to support your pricing decisions - they are not certified appraisals or formal valuations. For transactions that require a certified opinion of value, a licensed equipment appraiser should be engaged.

The estimates are built for the industrial dealer context and are grounded in real current market data, not generic book values.
