From messy lot photos
to repeatable,
merch-ready shots.
Halo Compass gives any staff member a single dot to follow. Your merchandising and marketing teams get the consistent, on-brand vehicle photos they need for VDPs, websites, and marketplaces at scale.

From close-range dots to standard, pixel-true views.
Halo Compass guides staff to capture vehicles up close in any situation, then reconstructs those images into a fixed set of standard field-of-view shots – no generative fill, just real pixels in consistent views.
Define views
Set the views once. Halo turns them into capture recipes every lot and driver reuses.

Just walk to the dot
Halo Compass places magenta dots on the metal and guides staff around the car. They walk to the dot, align the rings, and capture close-range photos from any parking spot.

Halo remaps to standard FOVs.
Behind the scenes, Halo uses geometry to convert those close-range shots into a fixed set of canonical views – without generative fill – so every image is built from real, pixel-true captures.

Same angles, every session.
No matter who shoots or where the car is parked, Halo outputs the same sequence of views, ready for your VDPs, marketplaces, and reports.

Built for real-world lots.
Tight spaces, mixed lighting, snow, night shifts – Compass works wherever a turntable or photo booth can’t, because it starts from close-range guidance.

One capture layer, many workflows.
The same standardized views feed merchandising today and power inspections, condition reporting, and automation tomorrow.

Three ways Halo Compass changes vehicle photos forever.
1
The dot moves your people to the right spot.
Halo Compass replaces static overlays with a live magenta dot anchored to the vehicle. Staff just walk until the dot is centered in the compass, then capture. No guessing, no “photo person” – anyone on the lot can hit the right angle in minutes.
Patent-pending guidance that tells you where to stand
Real-time surface and pose detection on any vehicle
New staff can run capture after a simple walkthrough

Guided close-ups in, canonical listing photos out.
Your teams follow the dot at close range, capturing panels the way they naturally move. Halo’s geometry engine then composes a fixed set of canonical hero, side, rear, and detail shots – built from real pixels, not generative fill – so every vehicle has the same field of view across every rooftop.

One guided capture. Vehicles online faster, everywhere.
As soon as a vehicle hits the lot, any staff member opens a Halo link and runs the Compass flow. Canonical views and metadata push straight into your DMS, website templates, and marketplaces – and the same standardized images can later power inspections, condition reports, and claims.
From arrival to merch-ready assets in a single flow
Consistent imagery across all rooftops and channels

What the dot does for a typical 150-car lot.
Based on current pilot assumptions: ~150 retail vehicles a month (≈1,800/year), ~20 photos per vehicle, weekly third-party photo crews that post the next day, $80/day holding cost, and ≈$30 per-vehicle capture cost. Actual results will vary by dealer.
3–4 days sooner
Vehicles live vs weekly photo crews
With once-a-week third-party capture, fresh inventory typically waits 3–4 extra days before photos are taken and VDPs go live. When your own staff can follow the Halo dot as soon as a vehicle is ready, that delay drops to about a day – so cars usually hit your website 3–4 days earlier than they do today.
300+ hours
Hands-on photo work freed every year
A 150-car rooftop runs roughly 1,800 vehicles a year through its photo flow. Saving around 10 minutes per vehicle frees up more than 300 hours of capture time annually – over a full working month you can redirect from chasing photos to selling cars.
$500K+ / year
Potential value and savings per rooftop*
Cut 3–4 days of “not online yet” time (at ≈$80/day) and remove ≈$30 in third-party capture costs per vehicle and you’re in the ≈$300 per-vehicle impact range. At ~1,800 vehicles a year, that’s $500K+ in potential value and savings from faster turns, stronger merchandising, and reduced vendor spend.
In plain language: cars online days sooner, a month of labour back, and roughly half a million dollars of upside – at one store.

How Halo Compass fits into your existing flow.
No new lanes. No new apps for your team to download. Halo drops into the way you already take in, recondition, and post vehicles online.
1. Vehicle becomes photo-ready
A unit hits the lot or rolls out of recon. Your team marks it photo-ready in the tools you already use – DMS, inventory tool, or a simple list. That’s the only trigger Halo needs.

2. Follow the dot, capture once
Staff open a Halo Compass link on their phone, walk to the vehicle, and follow the magenta dot around the car. The dot tells them where to stand and when each angle is good, so they complete one guided pass instead of guessing or re-shooting.

Halo remaps those close-range captures into your standard set of listing photos and pushes them into your existing systems – DMS, website provider, marketplaces, and inspection tools – so every channel sees the same, on-brand images without extra steps.
