Prufio Launches App That Verifies Used Cars Before Buyers Travel

Patent-pending Lithuanian service offers video, guided photos, seller disclosures, GPS proof, VIN and odometer checks, with reports from €14.

VILNIUS, LITHUANIA, May 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Prufio, a remote car verification service for used vehicle buyers, today launched its inspection app on iOS and Google Play, allowing buyers to confirm a vehicle exists, is at the location stated, and matches its listing before traveling to view it or sending a deposit.

The service addresses two long-standing problems in private and cross-border used car sales: scams built on stolen photos, and listings where photos may be edited or months out of date — neither showing what the car actually looks like today.

Prufio does not replace a physical pre-purchase inspection — it is an early filter that confirms a listing is real and the seller will stand behind it. If a seller does not respond within 7 days, the buyer's credit is refunded for use on another verification.

"In most used car listings, two things go unverified: who actually has the car, and what it actually looks like today. Photos can be stolen, edited, or months old; a WhatsApp video proves none of that," said Nojus Liepis, Director of Prufio. "We built the app so a buyer in Vilnius can see, for themselves, that the car listed in Berlin exists today, is parked where the seller says, has the VIN it should, and is operated by the person who actually listed it — before they ever get on a plane or wire a deposit."

How a Prufio inspection works

A buyer submits the listing URL or vehicle information and the seller's contact details. Prufio contacts the seller on the buyer's behalf — the buyer's identity is not disclosed. The seller then completes a single uncut in-app session guided by on-screen overlays that prompt exact exterior and interior shots, capturing live video, photos, GPS location, odometer, and VIN.

In the same session, the seller answers a standardized disclosure questionnaire — damage, accident history, warning lights, modifications, service history, warranty, financing, and included accessories — with photos required for any reported damage and a final declaration of accuracy that creates a documented record for any future dispute.

The completed report is delivered to the buyer immediately and remains accessible for three weeks. Each report includes a Trust Score derived from GPS analysis — signal consistency, spoofing detection, and location-jump flags — that summarizes how reliable the captured location is. The Trust Score is a probabilistic assessment, not a guarantee.

Pricing

A single Prufio inspection costs €22. A two-report pack reduces the per-report price to €18, and a three-report pack to €14. Volume packages are available from ten reports.

Availability

The Prufio app is available worldwide on the App Store and Google Play. Reports are informational, not a guarantee of vehicle condition or legal status; buyers should follow a positive Prufio report with a physical inspection.
