The i-DENT-ify application uses AI (artificial intelligence) based on millions of vehicle images to make the job of finding and recording damages to vehicles a lot quicker, easier and more independent. It will help you whether you're renting, selling, insuring or fixing a car or doing this for your customers. HOW IT WORKS: - Take 16 photos of the vehicle - our camera overlays makes this really simple. - Our platform uses artificial intelligence created from millions of vehicle images to analyse these photos. - You will receive an initial report showing all the damages, their location and severity. - You can confirm or reject these individual damages in case they are incorrect. - You will then receive a detailed damages report where you can add further details such as internal damages, VIN number, mileage etc. to the vehicle report. - The final report includes a map of the car with the damages marked and each damage includes a zoomed photo and damage-type description. - Your saved reports can be easily shared via a web link with anyone else via email, WhatsApp or other channels with just one click. WHEN TO USE IT: Renting a car - Use i-DENT-ify to create a digital, time-stamped report before and after you rent. You can also do this before leaving your car at a garage to check for any new damages. Selling or buying a car on a digital marketplace - Create an independent report to share with potential buyers. Or if you're buying a car, ask the seller to do this for you. Getting a valuation for insurance - Create a report to send to the insurance company. Getting a quote to repair your car - Use i-DENT-ify to create a report to send to garages for quotes that can be compared fairly. No more driving from garage to garage.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hear Boost at 50% against i's 0%. Hear Boost also leads on rating (4.2 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (12K vs 1). i's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
