Buying a used car? Know the car before you buy it. Orto turns a license plate or VIN into a clear, risk-first vehicle history check in seconds. Scan a plate with your camera, scan a VIN barcode, or just type it in.

Orto is a VIN decoder, license plate lookup and vehicle history report in one app. Point your phone at any US license plate and our license plate scanner (automatic license plate recognition) reads it instantly. It is like Shazam for cars, trucks, SUVs and motorcycles, and it recognizes most US state plates.

FREE WITH EVERY SCAN
- VIN decode and full specifications: make, model, year, engine, transmission, drivetrain, fuel, dimensions and country of manufacture.
- The Orto Trust Score, an A to D grade for how good the vehicle is on safety, reliability and recalls.
- Active NHTSA safety recalls. Is the car safe? Has it been recalled? Check by plate or VIN.
- NCAP crash-test safety ratings.
- Real-time market value from recent local sales, so you know what it is worth before you negotiate.
- Owner reviews and reliability rankings for the make and model.
- Cars for sale near you for the same model.
- A free garage: every scan is saved, with your own notes and photos.

UNLOCK THE FULL TITLE AND HISTORY REPORT
Powered by NMVTIS, the U.S. Department of Justice title database:
- Title brands, rebuilt and branded titles.
- Salvage, junk and total-loss records, so you can avoid unsafe rebuilds.
- Odometer readings and rollback detection to catch mileage tampering.
- Ownership and title history.
- Liens, theft and other records.
- A history-adjusted book value.
- A downloadable PDF report you can hand to a buyer or seller.

BUILT ON TRANSPARENCY
No black boxes. Every number in an Orto report traces back to a named public record or licensed data provider. We show our sources, and when a record is unavailable we tell you instead of dressing up a gap as a clean result.

FOR DEALERS AND PROS
Orto is a fast used-car inventory tool. Add private notes, tags and photos to every unit, run a 15-point inspection that folds into the Trust Score, set renewal reminders, and compare vehicles side by side. Orto Dealer adds team seats, unit assignment, unlimited lookups and a monthly report allowance, on a web dashboard your whole team can use.

Whether you are a private buyer, a seller, an enthusiast or a dealer, do not buy a used car without checking it with Orto first.

Orto covers vehicles in the United States. A vehicle history report is not a substitute for a professional inspection, and an absence of records is not a guarantee of a clean history.
Well, here we are. It's been almost 3 years since Orto closed, but we've been working really hard to bring you a brand new, fresh app that's hopefully better than it ever was.

This is the first public release. So, please be patient and if you find any issues or have some suggestions drop a message through the help channel in the app.

Thanks everyone! It's good to be back
