Bidding Engine
Real-time bid processing across English, Dutch, sealed-bid, and Japanese formats with sub-100ms latency and automatic bid validation.
Platform
AuctionFlow is a composable auction operating system. Pick the modules you need, configure them to your rules, and extend with our APIs — whether you run 10 lots a month or 10,000.
Architecture
Every module is independently deployable and horizontally scalable, yet they all share a single event bus, data model, and security layer.
Real-time bid processing across English, Dutch, sealed-bid, and Japanese formats with sub-100ms latency and automatic bid validation.
Catalog, schedule, and organize lots across single-item, bulk, and multi-parcel auctions with rich media support and condition grading.
Automated invoicing, escrow, buyer premium calculations, and multi-currency settlement with PCI-compliant payment processing.
Fully brandable auction experiences with custom domains, theming, and email templates so every touchpoint feels like your own.
RESTful and WebSocket APIs covering every auction lifecycle event, plus configurable webhooks for real-time system integration.
Intelligent lot descriptions, reserve price suggestions, bidder engagement scoring, and predictive sell-through analytics.
Composability
Whether you need an out-of-the-box solution or a fully custom auction experience, AuctionFlow adapts to your level of control.
Launch in days, not months. Pre-configured auction workflows, built-in payment processing, and responsive bidder portals work out of the box.
Tailor every aspect of the auction experience. Configure bidding rules, fee structures, approval workflows, and notification logic without writing code.
Build proprietary features on our open platform. Use our APIs, SDKs, and event system to create deeply integrated auction experiences unique to your operation.
