Carscan

Carscan is an AI-powered vehicle inspection mobile app for insurance teams, car dealers, repair workshops, and vehicle owners who need fast, consistent damage assessments using a smartphone camera.

Key capabilities include:

• Computer vision damage detection for vehicle exterior, wheels, and glass, captured through a guided scan.
• Internal vehicle data capture by reading odometer, selected engine or gearbox details, and dashboard warning icons.
• Vehicle identity and fraud checks using VIN-to-license matching plus geo-tag mapping.
• Repair estimate workflow that supports real-time repair estimates and routes jobs to local repairers, workshops, and service centers for competitive quotes, plus an inspection report that documents damage.

Available on Web, Android, and iOS.

Carscan targets B2B2C automotive workflows, supporting insurers (claims and underwriting), dealerships (buy-to-sell assessments), workshops (quoting and lead generation), and consumers (buying, selling, and self-assessment).

It is notable in South Africa and other African markets for enabling a full-vehicle scan in about 30 seconds, guided by augmented reality, and for training its proprietary AI on a dataset of 2 million+ vehicle images to support consistent inspection data across the value chain.
