Smart capture
Point and tap — that's it. PlateQuest finds the plate, frames it, and submits the catch without careful lining-up.
PlateQuest recognizes real plate designs and turns them into a 50-state collecting game. Snap a plate, build your atlas, and race to become its first finder — with no ads or subscription.
From first snap to full atlas, PlateQuest keeps the hunt moving.
When you're a passenger, on foot, or safely parked, point at a license plate and tap. PlateQuest spots it and logs the catch — no careful lining-up needed.
Captures are reviewed before they join your collection. We identify the plate design, not the vehicle owner, and never extract or store the plate number as text.
Plates fill in state by state. Grab a 1ST badge when you're the first explorer to ever find a design — and go Pro to chase the rare specialty plates too.
Explore a growing catalog of standard, specialty, electric, military, vintage, and university designs from across the country. Your first plate in every state is free to collect; one optional Pro unlock opens design-level collecting after that.
