Frequently asked questions
Digital Garage & Vehicle Check FAQ
What is Kermo?+
Kermo is your all-in-one digital garage and car expense tracker. It allows you to photograph fuel receipts with AI, monitor running costs, check MOT history, verify ULEZ compliance, compare local fuel prices, and set up automatic reminders for your vehicles — all for free.
Can I track my car running costs and fuel receipts in Kermo?+
Yes. Kermo includes a free AI-powered digital logbook. You can photograph any petrol pump display or fuel till receipt, and our AI vision extracts the cost, litres, and station directly into your vehicle log to calculate your true monthly spend and MPG.
What is an MOT history check?+
It's your best defence against buying a bad car. By entering a number plate, you can instantly see a car's entire testing history since 2005—including past failures, advisories, and the exact mileage recorded at each test.
Can I check an MOT without an account?+
Absolutely. Our vehicle history check is completely free and requires no sign-up. Just type in the registration or tap the camera to scan the plate, and get the results instantly.
Is Kermo free to use?+
Yes, all vehicle checks, ULEZ compliance checks, fuel price comparisons, and safety recall lookups are 100% free. If you want to use automated MOT & Tax reminders and save your vehicles, you can create a free account.
What information can I see on a vehicle check?+
You'll see the current MOT and tax status, expiry dates, complete test history, failure reasons, advisories (like worn tyres or suspension issues), a mileage timeline, ULEZ compliance status, and any outstanding DVSA safety recalls.
Can Kermo remind me about my MOT and vehicle tax?+
Yes. Once you save a vehicle to your Garage, we'll automatically notify you before your MOT or tax is due, so you never get caught out driving illegally.
How does the AI number plate scanner work?+
Tap the camera icon on our homepage, point your phone at any UK number plate, and our AI reads it instantly using Google Gemini vision technology. The plate is extracted in seconds and we immediately pull the full MOT and vehicle history — no typing required. Guest users get 3 free AI scans per day; registered users get 10.
What is a ULEZ checker and is my car compliant?+
ULEZ stands for Ultra Low Emission Zone. Kermo's free ULEZ checker lets you enter any UK registration to instantly see if the vehicle meets London TfL standards (£12.50/day charge if non-compliant) and all other UK Clean Air Zones including Birmingham, Bristol, Sheffield, Bath, and Newcastle. We check against DVLA Euro emission standards and registration date.
Can I check if my car has an outstanding safety recall?+
Yes. Kermo's vehicle check uses DVSA data to show whether your vehicle has any outstanding manufacturer safety recalls. Under UK law, manufacturers are required to rectify all safety recalls free of charge at any franchised dealer.
