VIN Reader
Every car carries a 17-character code stamped into its body. This reads what the code itself says: where it was built, who built it, the model year and whether the check digit holds. It works in your browser, and the VIN never leaves your device.

This reads the structure of the code, not the car's history, and it uses no AI. Samples are made up and do not belong to real cars. Some Japanese-market imports use a shorter chassis number instead of a VIN. Full vehicle reports are planned.

Bid Bar
Enter what you think the car will sell for after repair and what it will cost to get there. The bar shows how high you can go before a deal stops making sense. The planned version will fill these numbers in from the scan.
