Plate recognition
Read the registration number directly from a vehicle image and return normalised alphanumeric text.
POST /v1/plate/readVehicle identity
Read license plates from the vehicle images you already capture.
Scan a vehicle plate from a phone photo and return normalised text, issuing country and region—whether it is angled, distant or captured in poor light.
/v1/plate/readper imageThe result
Built around an operational outcome.
Use the same endpoint at intake, handover, roadside capture and resale, without building country-specific plate-reading flows.
- One consistent plate-reading API across your international vehicle flows
- Normalised plate text with country and regional information when it can be determined
- A bounding box and confidence score so uncertain reads can be reviewed
Included capabilities
The real calls behind the solution.
Use the complete workflow or call each stage independently. Every capability below maps to a production endpoint.
Country and region detection
Identify the issuing country and regional subdivision where the plate format provides that evidence.
POST /v1/plate/readReview-ready confidence
Return the source location and confidence for every plate so your workflow can route uncertain reads to a person.
POST /v1/plate/readImplementation path
From capture to your existing system.
- 01
Capture
Send one clear vehicle image from your existing camera, gate, inspection or listing workflow.
- 02
Read
CarHub locates the plate and returns its normalised text, country, region and confidence.
- 03
Validate
Use your country hint or confidence threshold to identify reads that need another image or a reviewer.
- 04
Act
Use the structured result to find a vehicle, pre-fill a flow or connect it to your own records.
Boundary
Read quality depends on the visible plate. When the country, region or text cannot be determined reliably, the corresponding value is returned as null or low confidence for review.
