AUBURN, Ind., April 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via InvestorWire — Perpetual Industries Inc. (OTCMARKETS:PRPI<\/u><\/a>) (\u201cPerpetual<\/strong>\u201d or the \u201cCompany<\/strong>\u201d) today announces it has completed its acquisition of the AutoGrafic Software System.<\/p>\n

AutoGrafic is a software as a service (SaaS) and social application that utilizes cutting-edge technology to host a myriad of aspects for automotive promotion and preservation. It targets global collector car and automotive enthusiasts who want a unique, multifaceted, interactive automotive experience that is focused on a visual-based social community, collection management, social events, auctions, insurance, research, preservation and historical documentation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis acquisition provides another foundational piece in our quickly expanding blockchain division and, in addition to outstanding software, augments our team with some truly exceptional talent,\u201d said Brent Bedford, CEO of Perpetual. \u201cIt will also greatly benefit Worldwide Auctioneers, our newly acquired wholly owned subsidiary, by bringing much-needed new technology and innovation to their customers and the collector car industry at large.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AutoGrafic software system was born from the vision of Travis LaVine and Jason Stoller, of LaVine Restorations, to fill a need in the industry for a user-friendly software that could be a singular point for the collector car community. LaVine Restorations, Inc. is an Indiana-based company, founded by Eric and Vivian LaVine in 1974, that has grown into a global leader in high-end classic car restoration and preservation. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe have worked tirelessly over the past year to develop AutoGrafic as a suite of tools suited to the complex and robust collector car world. Never has there been a more important time than now to create an ecosystem that brings collectors, enthusiasts, restorers and car lovers a more interactive and connected experience, especially in light of COVID and our ever-changing online world,\u201d said Travis Lavine, co-founder of AutoGrafic Software System.<\/p>\n

Perpetual will be expanding its team of software developers to create a new division for AutoGrafic led by Travis LaVine and Jason Stoller. The resulting combined expertise of these visionaries and the Company will elevate the platform, bringing it to its full potential. This includes plans for a mobile app, loyalty program, tokenization on the blockchain, as well as a full suite of other multidimensional features. AutoGrafic users will soon be able to gain access to the system by using a mobile phone or web browser to choose a free plan or select from various levels of premium plans that will provide access to more of the advanced functions on a per-feature subscription basis.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled that AutoGrafic is now part of the Perpetual Industries family. We have had a wonderful relationship with LaVine Restorations and the AutoGrafic team for many years and believe the synergies are incredible, and we look forward to working together to bring solutions to our industry and beyond,\u201d said John Kruse, principal and auctioneer of Worldwide. <\/p>\n

The U.S. classic car market has recorded steady expansion over recent years, accounting for revenue of approximately $12.63 billion in 2020, according to Statista Research Department. The same report forecasts growth to $15.52 billion by 2023. According to data from IBISWorld, the market for classic car dealers in the U.S. was valued at $2.1 billion in 2021, achieving a CAGR of 1.5% from 2016 to 2021 despite the challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

AutoGrafic is uniquely poised to impact the collector car market in a pivotal way by increasing access to desirable automobiles, which we believe will drive the creation of a new generation of collectors interested in classic automobiles,\u201d said Jason Stoller, co-founder of AutoGrafic Software System.<\/p>\n

Perpetual Industries\u2019 goal is to capitalize on this currently growing marketplace sector to create an immersive interactive experience, while at the same time creating a central hub that will attract the next generation of car enthusiasts.<\/p>\n
