Self Inspection vs UVeye
AI vehicle inspections from any smartphone — no app, expert-validated, live in days. No scanning lane, no hardware, no capex.
What's the difference between Self Inspection and UVeye?
UVeye provides fixed drive-through inspection systems — camera tunnels installed at a location that scan exterior, undercarriage and tires as vehicles pass through. Self Inspection is software-only: guided smartphone inspections from a link, AI detection validated by experts, cost estimates and a standardized CR score. The difference is architecture — UVeye inspects vehicles that come to the hardware; Self Inspection inspects vehicles wherever they are.

Side-by-side pilot on 25 vehicles
Pick 25 vehicles that never pass through your lane — off-site returns, a satellite lot, a partner location — and inspect them from a link. Compare the CRs with what your lane produces on comparable units.
Rebuild your flows — no engineering
Your lane's checkpoints — exterior, tires, interior, documents — become a guided smartphone flow in the Flow Constructor, by use case, year, make and model. Configured, not installed.
Parallel-run, then cut over
Keep the lane where it earns its keep. Roll Self Inspection out to every location that never justified hardware, then decide whether the next site needs a lane at all.
