Condition and damage records document the state of rental vehicles at pickup and return. Manual inspection, photography, and note-taking are scattered across paper, email, and spreadsheets, creating delays and incomplete audit trails.
Automation captures vehicle photos and inspection notes, analyzes damage automatically, logs records into the rental system, and generates customer reports in minutes. The result is faster processing, complete documentation, and reduced disputes.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
A rental scans the vehicle ID or enters it into a mobile form, signalling the start of the return inspection.
The mobile app or form captures photos, GPS coordinates, and timestamp automatically as the automation photographs damage.
The automation analyzes photos and notes to identify damage type, location, and severity, then structures the data.
Structured damage data is written directly or the rental management system with timestamp and ID.
The system checks if damage severity exceeds a threshold (e.g., estimated repair cost over $500).
If damage is high-value, an immediate notification is sent to the manager with photos and damage summary.
A formatted damage report with photos, descriptions, and timestamps is generated and stored.
The damage report is automatically emailed to the customer with a link to the shared photos.
