THE VEHICLE JOURNEY
Start the visual record before the vehicle reaches the photo queue.
Capture the VIN, mileage and exterior while your team is already with the vehicle. Halo feeds your connected appraisal tool, creates listing photos when the vehicle is acquired and stocked, and updates the exterior and detail set after recon.
- 01Appraisal condition
- 02VIN and mileage
- 03Acquired and stocked
- 04Day-zero listing set
- 05Final retail-ready set
- 06Retail or wholesale delivery
Use it across the lot.
New inventory needs pictures too. Your team can use Halo for arriving new vehicles, ongoing merchandising and updated exterior or detail shots.
Halo can replace scheduled lot-service capture and separate image processing. Staff work around the parked vehicle, reducing the need to move cars through a dedicated photo bay.
VEHICLE RECORD
Keep the whole visual history with the vehicle.
The VIN stays with the record from the value decision to retail or wholesale, so the next person sees the same condition, what changed, what is approved and what still needs attention.
WHO HALO HELPS
One vehicle record answers a different need for each role.
Sales staff need a walkaround they can complete consistently. Appraisers need useful condition photos. Inventory managers need stocked vehicles online. Merchandising needs the same eight views, followed by fresh exterior and detail photos when the vehicle is ready.
- USED-VEHICLE LEADERSHIPSee which VIN is moving, waiting, or blocked before listing.
- APPRAISALAdd consistent condition evidence to the value decision before acquisition.
- INVENTORY MANAGERSMatch each acquired vehicle to its capture and trigger the first listing set at stock-in.
- PHOTO REFRESHAfter recon and detailing, refresh the exterior and add up to 25 configured detail views.
- MERCHANDISINGReceive the same eight finished views without chasing missed framing.
- FRONTLINE STAFFComplete consistent exterior capture in about 90 seconds without specialist framing or a photo bay.
- WHOLESALEShare a capture link with a wholesaler or seller so your buyer can review the vehicle before acquisition.
The same VIN-linked visual record, understood through the work each person owns.
You don’t need a dedicated photo person.
Give staff a Halo link for the work they already do. Sales has a capture link connected to your dealership’s appraisal process. Lot managers and detailers have a link to refresh exterior photos and add interior and detail shots when the car is ready.
Anyone else who’s beside a vehicle that needs images can have the appropriate link ready on their phone. Add it to the home screen, and it’s there when needed, with no separate app-store download.
The dot guides each person through the capture. Halo handles the final framing, so different staff can produce the same eight angles and compositions. Photography becomes part of the appraisal, lot and detail work already happening around the car.
That’s Halo’s Vehicle Spatial Intelligence at work: understanding the camera’s position relative to the car and guiding the captures it needs.
Once set up, dot guidance, VIN scanning and odometer scanning work offline too. Staff can finish capturing where the signal drops; processing and delivery require connectivity.
Get a closer look before the vehicle gets to you.
Send a Halo capture link to a customer for a remote appraisal, or have your buyer share one with a wholesaler or seller when considering an acquisition. They can follow the guidance on their phone and send back close-range images for your team to review.
Your appraiser or buyer can examine the visible condition and follow up on anything that needs a closer look. If you acquire the vehicle, that capture can also supply the first eight listing views once it meets Halo’s quality checks and the vehicle is stocked.
Start marketing the car the day you stock it.
Every day a stocked vehicle waits for photos is a day you could be showing it to buyers. Halo uses the appraisal capture to create its first eight listing views, checks them and delivers them across your connected website and listing platforms.
Shoppers can see the actual vehicle and enquire while recon and detailing are underway. You can start building interest before the car is ready for the front line, with its preparation status clear in the listing.
When it comes out of detail, refresh the photos. The listing has already been working for you.
Capture at appraisal. Online from day zero.
Out of detail? Give the listing a fresh set.
Capture the exterior again to show the car as it looks now. Follow Halo’s prompts for the cabin, seats, cargo area and features, with up to 25 additional detail shots.
Use Halo for new inventory too. Start when the vehicle arrives or enters stock, then add its interior and feature photos.
One rooftop. One monthly price. Go ahead, take the photos.
Appraisals you win. Appraisals you don’t. New arrivals. Fresh captures after detail. They’re all covered.
Your subscription includes team access, capture, listing-image generation, processing, Halo QC, detail-photo flows, background updates and delivery through your agreed supported connections. Standard onboarding and support are included.
