Use the speed and convenience of MobileLot for vehicle data collection, publishing, and wireless printing while capturing professional-quality images with an external digital camera.
WebLot Photo Match is a Windows® utility designed primarily for clients who use our MobileLot app to decode VINs, collect vehicle data, publish vehicle inventory to the Internet and wirelessly print used car window stickers and FTC Buyers Guides.
Although MobileLot allows users to very easily use their Android and iOS devices to take pictures of vehicles without any manual photo matching, with many devices, especially in difficult lighting conditions, the quality of the photos are sometimes not quite to the standards some clients prefer. Enter WebLot Photo Match.
With "WebLot Photo Match", users get the best of both worlds; The speed and convenience of vehicle data collection and wireless window sticker printing from their mobile devices, as well as the highest quality photos that often only an external digital camera can provide.
Download NowWebLot Photo Match connects professional camera photography with the MobileLot vehicle workflow in three simple steps.
Use MobileLot normally to decode VINs, collect vehicle information, publish inventory, and print window stickers or FTC Buyers Guides. Enable external camera mode when capturing photos.
Take photos using your DSLR or digital camera while MobileLot records the vehicle and capture information.
WebLot Photo Match compares photo capture information and automatically assigns images to the correct vehicles before uploading them to WebLot.
"WebLot Photo Match" can also easily assign vehicle photos to WebLot vehicles when the photos are named as either a vehicle VIN or Stock Number.
Within the settings screen you can tell the system which part of the photo filename has the VIN or Stock Number, which part holds the optional numeric photo position (such as photo 1, photo 2, etc), and set a custom delimiter to tell the system what separates the VIN or Stock Number from other parts of the filename such as photo number.
Some Examples Are: 1C3CCBCG8DN506598-1.jpg, 1005_1013_1C3CCBCG8DN506598_02.jpg, 01-1C3CCBCG8DN506598.jpg, 02-1C3CCBCG8DN506598.jpg, A1234-01.jpg, 2_A1234.jpg, 1C3CCBCG8DN506598.jpg, A1234.jpg, etc.
When the photo position is left off of a filename, the system assigns the photo to position one.
WebLot Photo Match is included at no additional cost for customers with a WebLot account and master account access.
