About Plateop

Plateop helps you judge whether a used car is a sensible buy โ€” before you pay.

What we make

You enter a car โ€” depending on the country by licence plate, VIN or manually โ€” and optionally paste in the listing. From that we build one readable purchase report with a clear verdict: strengths and weaknesses, questions for the seller and points of attention for the test drive. One clear piece of advice, not a data dump.

Where the data comes from

In each country we use the official vehicle register where we can; which source that is for this country is shown when you enter the car and again in the report itself. In countries without a register we are allowed to query, you enter the details yourself โ€” and the report says honestly that they are unverified.

Honest about what we don't know

Every fact in the report carries its origin. When data is missing we say so โ€” we never fill in an invented number. The advice is automated and is not an appraisal or an inspection; when in doubt, always have the car inspected independently.

One clear price, no hidden business model

Plateop charges one fixed price per report โ€” no subscription, no ads and we never sell your data. That transparent business model is exactly why our advice stays independent: we earn from a good report, not from what we know about you. No account is needed; what you enter stays on your own device.
