See an insane car on the street? Take a photo - CarDex recognizes the model, horsepower and estimated market value in seconds and turns it into a collectible card. Think card-collecting game — but for real cars in the wild.
CarDex turns every street into a treasure hunt. Every spot becomes a card with a rarity from Common through Rare and Epic to Legendary. An E30 M3, a 911 GT3 or a Lamborghini Huracan? That's your jackpot.
HOW IT WORKS
- Photograph a car or pick an image from your gallery
- AI recognizes the model, horsepower, 0-60 and estimated market value
- Unlock a collectible card: Common, Rare, Epic or Legendary
- Add it to your garage, level up and share your best card
