In today’s on-demand world, valet teams can’t afford to slow down. Every second a car sits at the curb is a missed chance to wow your guest—and, frankly, a nightmare for your bottom line. That’s why Summon’s AI-Powered Vehicle Recognition turns a single snapshot into instant, accurate vehicle details—no typing required.

Because Who Doesn’t Love…

  • Hand-writing license plates in triplicate
  • Playing detective to hunt down the exact make and model
  • And, best of all, playing “Guess That Color”

Oh wait—nobody does any of that. Which is exactly why we built something better.

One Snap, Four Fields

Tap Scan, snap a photo, and within seconds your system automatically fills in:

  1. License Plate Number
  2. Vehicle Make (Toyota, BMW, Ford…you name it)
  3. Vehicle Model (Camry, 3 Series, F-150…you get the idea)
  4. Primary Color (Black, White, Blue…finally, consistency!)

No manual lookups. No typos.

Just seamless, dependable data—every single time.

Why Operators Are Raving

  • Lightning-Fast Throughput
    Cut data-entry steps by up to four fields per check-in—process 30% more cars per hour and keep lines moving.
  • Bulletproof Accuracy
    Automated plate-to-vehicle matching instantly flags any mismatch (plate swaps? eliminated).
  • Consistent Data, Powerful Insights
    Uniform, high-quality records feed straight into your dashboards. See which models dominate your lot and adjust staffing or promotions on the fly.
  • Effortless Adoption
    Built into the Summon Operator App—no extra downloads or hardware. Update your app, toggle on the feature, and you’re live.

Best Practices for Stellar Results

  1. Good Lighting
    Natural or well-lit areas help the system nail every detail.
  2. Full-Vehicle Framing
    Capture as much of the vehicle body (and plate) as you can.
  3. Steady Hands
    Hold the device still to avoid blur.
  4. Minimize Glare
    Shift angles slightly—because reflections are nobody’s friend.

If confidence dips (e.g., in low light), the app flags the field for a quick manual check—keeping you both fast and flawless.
