Deal literacy
Photograph the worksheet. See what every line means.
A dealer worksheet is built to be read in seconds and understood later. DrivrShield AI reverses that. Take a photo at the desk and every line is named, explained in plain language, and paired with the question worth asking before you sign.
Plan: Photo reads are on the $19.99/month plan (40 a month). Typing the numbers in works on the free plan's 5 Asks.
What it reads
- Dealer worksheets and four-square sheets
- Buyer's orders and purchase agreements
- Lease worksheets: cap cost, residual, money factor
- Email and text quotes, screenshots of an online deal
- Finance-office menus of add-on products
What you get back
Every line gets a name and a job. Selling price, dealer doc fee, government title and registration fees, sales tax, dealer add-ons, service contracts, GAP, APR, term and payment are each explained: what the charge is, who sets it, and whether it is a government fee or the dealer's own.
Then come the questions. Not a script to argue from, but the specific words that make a vague line item concrete: what the prep fee covers, whether an add-on can come off, what the payment is at the rate you were approved for.
Why a photo beats a calculator
A payment calculator only works with the numbers you already know. The worksheet holds the ones you don't: a protection package folded into the price, a doc fee well above your state's typical, a rate that doesn't match the term. Reading the paper itself is how those show up.
If you want to check the math first, the free Packed Payment Detector rebuilds a payment from the deal's own figures and shows how much of it they don't explain.
What it won't do
Want a real person to grade the whole proposal? That is Human Deal Analysis, a separate service opening mid-fall 2026.
- Grade your specific deal or tell you to sign
- Predict what the dealer will accept
- Contact the dealer or lender, or negotiate for you
- Pull your credit or arrange financing

Questions
Is my worksheet photo stored?
No. A photo you send in a chat is used to answer that message and is not kept after it. The conversation text is kept for 12 months, then deleted, and you can delete it sooner.
Can it tell me whether this is a good deal?
It explains every piece of the deal and what to ask about each one, but it does not grade a specific deal or predict what a dealer will accept. A grade and a counter-offer are what Human Deal Analysis is for.
Does it know my state's fees?
Yes. Answers use the state saved on your account, including its sales tax rules and whether doc fees are capped. The free Dealer Fee Map shows every state's averages and caps.
Does it work on a lease?
Yes. It explains cap cost, cap cost reduction, residual value, money factor and the fees that are specific to a lease, and how they turn into the monthly payment.
