PlateHunt aggregates plate sightings from public open-data, user-submitted dashcam reports, and active stolen-vehicle alerts. One search — every place that plate has been recorded, with date, location, and source attribution.
Free for everyone. Each lookup requires a use-case attestation per our open-access policy.
Six source families wired in. Three live now, three queued. Add yours by emailing — open data only.
Any US plate, any state. Attest a use-case (own vehicle, repo order, PI investigation, journalism, etc.) — that attestation is logged.
