Plate and VIN lookups
Use cases
Check-out, grounding, defleet
Rental, car-sharing and subscription fleets all hit the same three moments.
Counter identification
Read the plate and get make, model, year, color and VIN without typing anything.
Recall grounding
Check open safety recalls before a car leaves, and ground the units that have one.
Defleet timing
Watch trade-in and auction values by VIN to pick the month to sell each unit.
Capabilities
Data behind a rental transaction
Four endpoints cover identification, recalls, resale value and the booking screen.
Plate to vehicle record
A plate and its state return the make, model, year, color and the VIN.
Open safety recalls
Which units carry an unremedied recall, with the component and the fix.
Resale value by VIN
Trade-in and auction values, adjusted for mileage, for every unit in service.
Dropdowns for booking
YMM Options fills year, make, model and trim menus, one layer per call.
Enterprise
Across every branch and counter
One key covers all locations, and nothing needs installing at the counter.
Locations without setup
Any branch that can reach the internet calls the same endpoint.
Key benefit
Opening a location is not an IT project.
Fleet-wide batches
Run the whole fleet against recall records nightly rather than car by car.
Key benefit
A grounded unit is found before a customer reaches the desk.
Values as the fleet ages
Re-value the units approaching a defleet decision rather than the whole fleet.
Key benefit
Defleet timing stops being a guess about the market.
