Car identifier · AI
What car is this? Identify it from a photo
Point the camera at a car — or pick a photo from your gallery — and Car Catalog names the generation, shows how sure it is and opens the full specs in the catalog.
Part of Premium, with a free account. The number of recognitions per day is shown in the app.
What you get
-
Up to five matches
The most likely generation first, with its confidence, and up to four other options when the photo leaves room for doubt.
-
Straight into the catalog
Each match opens its generation page — photos, every modification and full specs.
-
Tell us when it is wrong
Answer “Is this the right car?” to improve the results; if the car is not in the catalog yet, suggest it.
-
History for 30 days
Your recognitions stay in history for 30 days; delete any of them at once, and its photo goes with it.
How it works
-
Take or pick a photo
Shoot the car or choose a picture from the gallery. The front, the rear or the side with the whole car in the frame works best.
-
The AI takes a look
The photo goes to our server, which asks an AI model to compare what it sees with the generations in the catalog.
-
Open the match
Pick the right generation and read its specs — or, if it is not in the catalog, see what the model recognized.
Car spotting without guessing
Seen a car you can’t name? A recognition takes a few seconds and answers with a generation, not just a brand — a Golf VII rather than “a Volkswagen” — so you land on the right specs straight away.
It works for everyday cars and rare ones alike, as long as the catalog knows them; when it doesn’t, the answer says what the model saw, and you can suggest the car.
Tips for a better result
The model reads the shape of the body, the lights and the grille. Help it with:
- the whole car in the frame — from the front, the rear or the side;
- daylight and no heavy blur;
- one car per photo — crop the picture if there are several.
Your photos
A photo is sent only to recognize the car. It is kept with your history for 30 days and deleted at once when you delete the recognition. Details are in the Privacy Policy.
Questions about the car identifier
How accurate is the recognition?
With a clear photo of a car that is in the catalog, the right generation is usually the first match. The model can be wrong, so the app shows its confidence and other options — check the details before relying on them.
Does it work with photos from my gallery?
Yes — take a new photo or choose one from the gallery. The app shrinks it before sending, so it uploads quickly.
Is the car identifier free?
It is part of Premium and needs a free account; the number of recognitions per day is shown in the app. History, feedback and “Suggest a car” need only the account.
What happens to my photo?
It is used to recognize the car, kept with your history for 30 days and deleted at once when you delete the recognition.
