For developers
Image Plate
Seeing is believing. That's why we're showing you the power of our proprietary license plate API to decode the plate value from an image. Let's see what an example response from the Image returns when we pass it through the API requesting everything.
- Access to a Large Dataset
- The API provides broad regional coverage and access to a leading edge machine learning model to provide accurate results.
- Variety of data points
- It provides a rich set of data points. Get bounding box coordinates (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax), candidates, dscore, plate, region, score, and vehicle type.
- Affordable pricing
- The API offers a low-cost entry point to start using their service, with plans likely suited for various use cases.

What's included?
Get a comprehensive breakdown of the vehicle's license plate, vehicle type, and confidence scores.
- License Plate Recognition
- The API accurately identifies and extracts license plate numbers from vehicle images, providing multiple candidate readings with corresponding confidence scores.
- Vehicle Type Detection
- Alongside the license plate data, the API identifies the type of vehicle in the image, such as 'Car', with a high level of accuracy.
- Region Identification
- The API determines the region of the vehicle's license plate, which can be useful for localizing and categorizing the data, with an associated confidence score.
- Image Processing Time
- Each request's processing time is provided, allowing users to gauge the efficiency of the API's performance for their application needs.
- Bounding Box Coordinates
- The API offers precise bounding box coordinates for the identified license plate, aiding in visual representation and integration with other systems.
- Data Confidence Scores
- For each license plate and vehicle type identified, the API provides confidence scores, offering insights into the reliability of the extracted data.
