Have you ever seen a car on the street and don't know what brand and model is that? Just use MudCar to take a photo of that and it can tell you immediately. Not only can it distinguish different brands, but also models of different model years, from classic cars in the 60s to newly-released 2025 models. MudCar is backed by a deep learning neural network. Rather than relying on existing image datasets and others' APIs, we build our image datasets, and train the model on our own.

The clearest difference is ads: Transtec at none against MudCar's shown. Transtec also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
