Getting Started: Add Cars to Your Vault
Three ways to add a die-cast car to Vanto: scan the barcode on its card, take a photo, or search the catalog. Then record your copy: condition, packaging, photos and what you paid.
Scan the barcode: the fastest way
On a carded car, hold the barcode up to the camera. If the catalog or another collector has linked that barcode to a car, it fills itself in. It is free and never uses an AI scan.
If the barcode is new, add the car the usual way: the barcode is linked to it when you save, so the next collector who scans it finds it at once. You can choose Don’t link.
Take a photo
Point the camera at the car, loose or carded, and tap. Vanto first looks for the nearest cars in the catalog’s reference photos and offers them to pick, which is free. If none of them is right, the photo goes to the AI scan, which uses one of your scans.
Search the catalog
Type the car’s name in The model and pick it from the list. If it isn’t there, fill in the brand and the details yourself.
Record your copy
- Condition and packaging: carded or loose.
- Your own photos.
- Paid, and optionally the date, the quantity and where you bought it.
Tap Add to vault. You can change any of it later from the car’s page.
Next: set up your garage.
Keep your collection like it matters.
Catalogue every car, mark your chase cars, track what the collection is worth, and show your best in a showroom garage.
