What Is Gavel Buddy?

Auction Management Software (Replace Clerking Tickets)

Gavel Buddy was designed by an auctioneer with a software development background to help his family business save money and become more efficient. Paper tickets were inefficient, error prone, and created additional stress on the auction staff when reconciling buyer and seller totals. After many successful years of using Gavel Buddy for his families auction business, he decided to make it available for other auction companies to benefit from.
