What Our Customers Say

Trusted by teams in the field

"Working in repossession in Pittsburgh, PA, the plate lookup app has become essential to our nightly operations. We rely on it to verify plate to VIN matches, confirm vehicle color, and identify distinguishing features that keep our team accurate and safe in the field. The photo access is especially valuable."

CF

Christian, Field Investigator

Repossession Company, Pittsburgh, PA

"As the owner of an automotive service facility handling 40 - 50 cars a day, this app has completely streamlined how I order parts. I simply snap a photo of the license plate and instantly have the VIN, year, make, model, and engine specs ready before I even call my distributor. The history log is a game changer too, giving me a reliable paper trail for every vehicle so I can look up information and order parts for returning clients even when the car isn’t in the shop."

Mike, Autoshop Owner

Mike's Service Center, Belleville, NJ

"Before this app, documenting a vehicle on scene was a headache, now everything we need is handled right from the phone before we pull away. I can decode the VIN, snap damage photos, and have the exact GPS location all logged in one place, so when questions come up later I’m covered and don’t have to scroll through my camera roll hunting for proof."
