Cazoo

Cazoo was a UK online used-car retailer founded in 2018 by Alex Chesterman, offering a direct-to-consumer platform to buy, sell, and finance used cars fully online with home delivery. The company listed on the New York Stock Exchange via a SPAC merger in 2021 before restructuring and entering administration in 2024; its consumer marketplace brand was subsequently sold. Cazoo was surfaced as a portfolio company of D1 Capital, General Catalyst, and Sapphire Ventures and added to the API Evangelist network for enrichment. No public developer portal or API surface was found during enrichment: the site is behind bot protection (HTTP 429) and no /.well-known/ discovery documents are published. Sector: ecommerce / automotive retail.

Cazoo is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Ecommerce, Automotive, Used Cars, and Retail.
