Universal Number Plate
Extraction API
A superior alternative to number plate recognition using OpenCV. Power your global logistics and smart tolls by capturing multi-plate layouts (e.g., trailers) and complex native scripts instantly from standard RTSP cameras.
Engineered for Global Infrastructure
Multi-Plate Array Output
Unlike legacy systems that concatenate trailer and prime mover plates into a single broken string, our API returns a structured JSON array of all visible plates with their specific vehicle types.
Color & Type Detection
We go beyond standard text. The API simultaneously extracts the plate's background color (e.g., yellow for commercial) and infers the regional origin to enable dynamic toll pricing.
Zero Hallucination Logic
Generic OCRs guess characters when plates are dirty. Our engine explicitly returns 'null' for illegible plates, ensuring your logistics systems only process validated data.
Powering Global City Workflows
From high-speed highway gantries to heavy freight logistics, reliable vehicle identification is the foundation of access automation.
Cross-Border Logistics
Handle complex container trucks. Seamlessly extract the 'trailer' plate and 'commercial' prime mover plate into distinct JSON array objects.
OpenCV Python Alternative
Building vehicle plate extraction using Python takes months. Send Base64 images to our REST API and get accurate multi-region data from day one.
Free-Flow Toll Collection
Upgrade manual booths to MLFF infrastructure. Accurately capture car plate OCR data across multiple lanes without forcing drivers to slow down.
Identify Under Any Condition
Port terminals and smart parking operate 24/7. Your license plate OCR shouldn't fail because of complex dual-language fonts or heavy rain.
- Dual-Language & Asian Scripts: Flawlessly reads Arabic, Cyrillic, Thai, and Chinese characters alongside standard Latin digits.
- Infrared (IR) & Low Light: Optimized to process high-contrast, black-and-white infrared camera feeds at 2 AM.
- Steep Angles & Skew: Compensates for extreme camera placements required at tight port entrances or low-clearance gates.

Transform Your Access Systems
Deploy Faster Than OpenCV
Don't spend hundreds of engineering hours collecting global datasets and tuning Python scripts for edge cases. Integrate our REST API in 10 minutes.
Slash Manual Exceptions
Because our model outputs distinct array items for stacked plates and refuses to hallucinate fake data, your back-office staff spends 90% less time reviewing false positives.
Lower Hardware Costs
Stop paying premium prices for proprietary smart cameras. Our API turns any standard RTSP IP camera feed into an enterprise-grade global ALPR sensor.
Global Port Logistics
Zero data concatenation errors at freight checkpoints.
After migrating their legacy ALPR software to StructOCR, the port eliminated entrance bottlenecks. The API's array logic automatically separated the trailer plates (e.g., TER 2231M) from the prime mover plates (e.g., XD 25M) without manual intervention.
"Standard ALPR packages were constantly concatenating our trailer and truck plates into invalid 16-character strings. StructOCR’s array format solved our gate automation instantly out of the box."
