Transforming Automotive Transparency through AI × 360° Imaging

Each image set is automatically uploaded to the cloud, generating a complete digital vehicle profile within minutes.

More than 4,000 leading companies, including Recruit Car Sensor, Honda, Suzuki, Nissan, Gulliver, and USS Auction, already rely on the platform.
To date, over 23.69 million vehicles have been processed, and dealerships using 360°Car® have reported 1.8× more customer inquiries and 2.5× higher listing efficiency.

This proven performance led to official certification by GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™, underscoring AGENCIA’s technological excellence, operational reliability, and global scalability.

  • Global Market Standard — 7,096,049 standardized datasets define a new benchmark for transparency, consistency, and quality across the automotive value chain.
  • Ecosystem Impact — High-definition 360° imagery enhances remote inspections, insurance assessments, residual value evaluations, and digital maintenance workflows.
