AI-powered vehicle inspection workflows are replacing disconnected checks across the lifecycle. From intake and appraisal to refurbishment, remarketing and sale, connected inspection data improves valuation accuracy, controls reconditioning spend, accelerates time-to-market and reduces disputes for UK dealers, fleets and remarketing operators using consistent AI condition reporting across all channels.
TyreSwift partner, Instavalo, has emerged as one of the brightest innovators in Europe’s dealer-tech landscape, winning at the mobile.de 2025 Awards, widely regarded as one of the most important stages for showcasing tomorrow’s automotive technologies.
HZD GmbH, a leading German vehicle restoration specialist, implemented the AI-powered InstaScan system to automate inspections. This reduced manual effort, improved consistency, and enabled high-speed, standardised damage detection. The solution supports scalability across partner sites, enhances repair throughput, and ensures a premium, uniform customer experience nationwide.
AI vehicle inspection is transforming the UK automotive sector, yet many businesses are still new to it. In this Q&A, Instavalo CEO Christoph Hölzlwimmer explains how the InstaScan AI-powered scanner speeds inspections, cuts costs, and boosts remarketing—plus what their UK partnership with TyreSwift means for the future.
Fleet management company, FATEC, overseeing 170,000 vehicles for 300 clients, integrated Tchek AI into its Copilot app. Drivers capture 10–15 inspection images within 5 minutes, and the AI identifies damage, VIN, mileage, and repair costs. The results are fast, accurate inspections, a reduced total cost of ownership and improved compliance.
Logistics and vehicle transport specialist, Suloja, has installed the ‘InstaScan’ AI body damage solution to automate certified damage inspection for high vehicle volumes at their Mönchengladbach location. The ‘InstaScan’ AI-inspection solution has significantly reduced the time and cost to produce certified appraisals, thereby improving the efficiency of the remarketing process.
AI-powered vehicle inspection systems offer faster and more consistent assessments compared to traditional manual methods, detecting vehicle condition and damage that might be overlooked by human inspectors. So where has this technology been deployed to date, and how significant are the perceived barriers to adoption?
