Three steps to integration.

No account managers. No minimum commitments on day one. Sign up, get a sandbox key immediately, and make your first query before you finish your coffee.

1

Sign up — get your sandbox key instantly

Enter your email at trade.hopeitpasses.com and your sandbox key appears on screen straight away, with a copy sent by email. No call, no card. The sandbox has the same data as production: 44M+ scored vehicles and growing daily, pass likelihoods, and full Care Score output. You can try a lookup before signing up.

2

One call returns everything

Pass a UK registration to GET /v1/vehicle/{reg} and get back MOT pass likelihood, both Care Scores, top at-risk components, last recorded mileage and MOT expiry, plus the cohort the prediction is based on. Bulk CSV upload is available for non-technical users and fleet batch jobs. Read the docs.

API & Trade Portal

Assess risk across thousands of vehicles.

Checking MOT histories one registration at a time isn't a strategy. Integrate our API into your underwriting flow, or drop a CSV into our portal to audit an entire fleet instantly.

Our Car Care Score (0–10) is derived from a vehicle's full MOT history — scored independently across first-time pass rate, advisory burden, repeated ignored warnings, defect severity, and annual mileage. Critically, we produce both a lifetime score and a current owner score, so you can tell whether a car was always poorly maintained or whether the current keeper changed its trajectory.

  • Price risk by actual care behaviour, not self-reported condition.
  • Flag mechanical risk before selling or assigning a vehicle.
  • REST API or bulk CSV. Results in seconds, not days.

Retailer Integrations

Sell parts at the moment of repair anxiety.

The instant our predictive engine warns a driver their suspension or brakes will likely fail next MOT, they start thinking about repair costs.

Place your exact inventory directly into their vehicle journey. Empower DIYers to buy direct, or arm garage customers with a fair-price benchmark — both routes drive your SKUs.

  • Hyper-targeted to exact vehicle generation, mileage and risk.
  • Standard CPC and revenue-share models available.
  • Click and placement reporting agreed as part of each partnership.

What the engine knows
For every model, generation and mileage band, we know the historical MOT pass rate and which components fail most often, so you can see a vehicle's likely problems before it's inspected, and manage the risk ahead of time.
Deep Component Insights
7,300+ DVSA defect descriptions mapped to 213 components, across 15+ years of MOT records.
FAQ

Questions buyers usually ask first.

Straight away. You can look up a registration without signing up, and a sandbox key appears on screen the moment you enter your email. The widget is a single iframe tag. Bulk CSV needs no integration at all: upload a spreadsheet and download it with the scores added.
Only the registration shown on the page and your public widget key. Nothing about your site's visitors is sent to us. The vehicle data itself comes from the DVSA's MOT records, published under the Open Government Licence.
It's the historical MOT pass rate for vehicles of the same model and generation in the same mileage band. It shows how comparable cars have done, not the result of inspecting that car, so treat it as a risk indicator rather than a guarantee. The methodology explains each score and where the data runs out.
The sandbox is free: 100 API lookups every 30 days, 1,000 widget views a day and 100 bulk rows a month. Production is priced per lookup, with volume tiers and no minimum commitment. Parts placements are agreed case by case. Tell us your expected volume and we'll quote within one business day.
There's a public health endpoint you can monitor, and support is by email with a reply within one UK business day. Service levels for production use are agreed as part of the contract.
Any vehicle with an MOT record in England, Scotland or Wales, plus vehicles tested in Northern Ireland by the DVA: 138M+ vehicles, with 44M+ Care Scores and more added daily. Cars under three years old (four in Northern Ireland) haven't had an MOT yet, so they aren't included. Where there isn't enough data, the API returns null rather than a guess. Every quarter we check the data against the DfT's licensing figures and publish how complete it is.
