Used inventory
Start the close-range capture during appraisal. If you acquire and stock the vehicle, use it for the first exterior listing set.
For dealerships
Your in-house photography platform.
For new and used inventory.
Start with appraisals, then bring more of your store’s photography into Halo. Capture new inventory on arrival, refresh used vehicles after detail and add interior and feature photos with the same platform.
Show the vehicle shoppers can buy
Actual vehicle photos give buyers more to go on.
Dealer.com’s June 2018 comparison found used and certified listings with actual vehicle photos were 40% more likely to receive a lead than listings with stock images. That is a reason to photograph the car in your inventory, with its own details and condition.

New-vehicle inventory
Photograph the actual new vehicle when it arrives or is ready for merchandising. Halo creates eight consistent exterior views; your team can add interior and feature photos to show its equipment and trim. Send the approved images through your configured delivery connection.
After recon and detail
Refresh the exterior and add interior and feature photos so buyers see the vehicle as it is now.
Remote vehicle review
Send a capture link to a customer, wholesaler or seller. They follow the phone guidance and return close-range images for your team to review before the vehicle reaches you.
Different staff.
Consistent listing photos.
Staff follow Halo’s targets on a supported phone. Halo creates the same intended angles and framing across your stores, reducing reliance on each person’s photography experience.
What does day zero mean?
The day an acquired vehicle is stocked. Publication depends on usable capture, the correct inventory match, Halo approval and a supported connected destination. Earlier photos do not mean recon is complete.
Can we keep our photographer?
Yes. Scope the initial pilot around first listing photos and agree who handles the final imagery.
When you buy and stock the trade
Appraise with the close-ups.
List with the finished views.
When you acquire and stock the vehicle, Halo automatically turns the 15 appraisal images into eight primary presentation images. Your connected Boost or HomeNet feed carries them to your website and the listing sites it serves.

Keep the trade’s visual record.
Use Halo for the photos you already take. The 15 close-range images go to the vAuto appraisal so your team can review the trade again after the customer’s visit.

After recon and detailing, make a fresh capture to show the vehicle as it looks now. For new inventory, begin at arrival or stock-in.
At your store
A clear job for your team.
A clear setup before you start.
Your staff capture.
Choose who takes the photos during appraisal, arrival or after detail. They follow the targets on a supported phone; Halo handles the finished exterior framing.
We check the setup together.
Confirm supported devices, staff responsibilities and your delivery connections during onboarding. Open a capture link on the phone; there’s no separate app download. Processing and delivery need connectivity.
Start with one workflow.
Keep your current photographer while you try Halo at one rooftop. Compare staff effort, retakes and time to the first live photo set before expanding.

The workflow shown on this site uses vAuto for appraisal images and a connected Boost or HomeNet feed for finished listing views. We confirm your store’s named systems, required access and delivery rules before launch.
The vAuto illustration explains the intended handoff; it is not evidence that a particular store’s connection is already active. Your walkthrough establishes which connections are ready for your store and what setup remains.
