Certify the vehicle condition at every rental car pickup

When a customer drives off, document the car’s exact condition with certified photos, video and data. A tamper-proof baseline that tells pre-existing damage from new and protects both sides at return.

The pickup baseline that prevents disputes

Most damage claims are contested because the initial condition was never proven. A documented walkaround at pickup turns the customer’s own photos into objective evidence, separating what was already there from what happens later.

Over half of claims disputed

Scratches and paintwork make up most complaints, and many are not caused by the renter. Proof at pickup settles them fast.

Word against word

Without a dated baseline, return becomes one party’s memory against the other. Certified capture removes the ambiguity.

Incontestable photos

An ordinary phone photo can be edited or questioned. Certified capture carries time, place and integrity that cannot be contested in a dispute.

Why certified capture matters

Digital evidence must be collected without alteration, carry trustworthy time and origin, and keep a chain of custody. TrueScreen delivers this at the source: an official seal and timestamp with legal value, and time and GPS on every file. Unlike ordinary phone photos, it cannot be edited or contested.

How certification works

Every acquisition follows the same forensic path, from capture to preservation, so the vehicle baseline remains incontestable whenever it is needed.

01

Forensic acquisition

Capture preserves authenticity at the source, with no alteration by AI, people or software.

02

Verification

The acquired information is verified before it is sealed.

03

Certification

An official digital seal and timestamp are applied, internationally recognized and legally incontestable.

04

Preservation

Certified evidence is kept on secure systems, ready for the file.

What you capture at pickup

The TrueFlow guides the customer or the desk operator through each acquisition, in order, while standing next to the car. Six guided steps, each certified at the source.

Context and sign off. After the live capture, add plate, mileage and fuel level, note any pre-existing damage, and confirm the documented condition. GPS is recorded throughout, and an optional electronic signature can seal the customer’s acknowledgement.

Evidence you can rely on

Every file leaves the pickup as certified evidence, ready to compare against the return and to attach to a claim if a dispute arises.

  • Immutable at the source. Captured and sealed so it cannot be altered afterwards.
  • Time and place. Each file carries a trustworthy timestamp and GPS location.
  • Legal value. An official seal recognized internationally, hard to contest.
  • Clear comparison. A baseline that makes return differences obvious.
  • Both sides protected. Shared, documented condition that defends renter and customer alike.
