About
lpr.software is built by Bootstrapped Ventures — a computer-vision team that trains, deploys, and operates license plate recognition in production, not a wrapper around someone else’s model.

We started as a computer-vision team solving a concrete problem: reading license plates reliably in real parking facilities, where cameras are imperfect, weather is uncooperative, and every misread costs an operator money. Our models are trained on real-world traffic imagery — vehicles at angles, in motion, at night — not curated benchmark datasets.
We first proved this engine in the Gulf. Under anpr.software, our models read GCC license plates in live parking operations — real traffic, imperfect cameras, uncooperative weather, around the clock. lpr.software brings that same production-hardened pipeline to Latin-script markets. Running our own models in production keeps us honest: we see every edge case, retrain on new data, and fix what breaks — because we are the ones on call when it does.
Now we are opening the same engine to the world as a self-serve API. No sales calls, no pilots that take a quarter to start — an API key, 150 free calls a month, and documentation that respects your time. The hard Latin-script problems are our focus: 50 US state plate designs, stacked characters, and vanity plates, alongside Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
Philosophy
Every field the API returns carries a confidence score, and we would rather say nothing than say something wrong. Our brand and model recognition runs two independent networks with calibrated confidence gates — when they disagree and the disagreement cannot be resolved, the API returns null with an explicit uncertainty flag instead of a plausible-sounding guess.
That design philosophy runs through the whole product: plate reads you can threshold, vehicle attributes you can cross-check, and errors that announce themselves instead of hiding in your data.

}lpr.software is a product of Bootstrapped Ventures LLC, headquartered in Shams, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, with computer-vision engineering roots in Kazakhstan. We build and operate recognition models for license plates, vehicle brands and models, body types, and colors — available as a cloud API or deployed on-premise in your infrastructure.
Send us sample photos from your cameras and we will run them through the pipeline — free, with the raw JSON included.
