Easier to find.
Anyone searching for an OE number that is not on file for your article will find parts, just not yours. With complete references and supersessions, your article shows up. What cannot be found cannot be sold.
FOR AFTERMARKET MANUFACTURERS AND DISTRIBUTORS
More precise links. Fewer incorrect orders.
With OE, fitment and verified VIN2Parts data.
TESTED ON REAL DATA
Not theory. A result.
On top of that came 2,047 supersession chains without a successor that should be checked. We are happy to show further figures and a live example in a personal conversation. Get in touch

MISSING LINKS. UNTAPPED POTENTIAL.
As long as the link is missing, it sits on the shelf. Once it is found, it is sold.
The matching article exists, but nobody finds it. PartGap closes these gaps using OE references and cross-references, OE replacements and fitment data. Supersessions of OE numbers are taken into account as well, across brands and sources and independent of your catalogue system.
Anyone searching for an OE number that is not on file for your article will find parts, just not yours. With complete references and supersessions, your article shows up. What cannot be found cannot be sold.
Additional vehicle applications and targeted additions to your range open up new sales opportunities, largely with parts you already have.
More precise links to the right vehicles make sure the right part is ordered the first time.
Every incorrect order avoided saves a return shipment and a re-shipment: fewer transports, less packaging, less CO₂.
THE DATA SPACE · THE HEART OF PARTGAP
Where others see data,
we see connections.
Grown over years and larger with every project: a body of data in which every missing link lights up. As a gap that can be closed.
We are happy to show you in person what this looks like for your own range. Get in touch

MARKET DATA ONLY

what people searched for yesterday.
- only as good as the data that was fed in

PartGap shows you
what fits today.That is what we do.Boris Peters · founder of Data Drive Automotive

FOR PRODUCT MANAGEMENT IN THE AFTERMARKET
PartGap is a joint project by ProDevelop and Data Drive Automotive and works with OE parts data, OE replacements and fitment data. On top of that come verified VIN2Parts data from real vehicles: the link between one specific vehicle, its vehicle identification number (VIN) and the parts actually fitted to it.
