Bidbus, an AI-native used car marketplace that connects consumers directly with dealers, has successfully raised $3.3 million in seed funding. The financing round was led by Mucker Capital, who contributed $3 million. This investment will enable Bidbus to enhance its AI capabilities and extend its reach to new markets, starting with an expansion to the San Francisco Bay Area.
