The #1 Car Spotting App5 rating
Turn every car you spot into a collectible card.
The car spotting app and car identifier in one. Snap a car on the street. AI identifies the make, model and year, and it becomes a card with a rarity tier, real specs and an estimated value.

How it works
An ordinary street. Then, a Testarossa.
Every drive, walk and car park becomes a chance. A few seconds from spotting it to holding it.
- 01
Spot and snap
A shape you don't recognise at the lights. Open CarSpot and take the photo.
- 02
Identified in seconds
AI reads the make, model and year. It may not always be exact, so check the details on your card.
- 03
The reveal
Your card lands with its tier, BHP, 0–60, top speed, estimated value and a stamp of where you spotted it.
Six tiers
Common is where it starts.
Unicorn is the story.
Every model gets a rarity score from 0 to 100, from its estimated value and either its power or how few were made. How often players spot it can move it up or down one tier.
- Common+10 XP
- Uncommon+20 XP
- Rare+40 XP
- Epic+80 XP
- Legendary+160 XP
- Unicorn+320 XP
Rarer tiers earn more XP, and spots that are rare around you earn bonus XP. Supercars and limited runs rank higher.
