Harsh light
Midday sun, blown highlights, hotspots on the bonnet and dull overcast days, evened out across the whole set.
Pre-Owned OS
Your photos. Minus the glare.
Built for used inventory you have already photographed. Pre-Owned OS sharpens, cleans and optimizes the photos you already took (harsh sun, reflections, framing, clutter) while the car, the plates and the location stay exactly as shot.

Retouch, don't restage
Real car. Real lot. Better light.
Most listing photos aren't bad. They're shot at noon, next to another car, with the photographer in the paint. Pre-Owned OS fixes the photograph without pretending the car is somewhere it isn't, so your listings look better and stay honest.
What it fixes
The problems every lot photo has
Reflections
The photographer, the building and the car next door disappear from the paint, replaced with a clean, neutral gloss.
Framing
Crooked, cramped or cut-off shots are reframed into a professional composition. Dashboards are squared to the screen.
Tidying
Stray cones, hoses and litter are removed and surfaces cleaned up, with a setting that decides how far it goes.
Plate lock
Number plates, badges and on-screen UI are held exactly as photographed, so nothing identifying is invented.
Dealer branding
Optional display plates front and rear, a logo on the infotainment screen and a branded floor mat, off until you turn them on.
Before and after
Drag to compare
Real dealership photos, straight from the lot, run through Pre-Owned OS with no manual retouching.
Hard sun on the lot
Midday glare and neighbour reflections evened out on black paint.
Clean console
Photographer glare off the screen, frame squared to the dash.
Cabin in sun
A harsh sunbeam across the interior, recovered without flattening it.
Ten-year-old wheel
A tight lot shot reframed and relit on an 80,000-mile Challenger.
Sunroof flare
Headliner glare tamed so the cabin reads properly.
Flat grey day
Dull overcast light lifted to show the paint's true colour.

You stay in control
Better photos, never a different car
Pre-Owned OS improves the photograph, not the vehicle. For used stock you decide exactly how much is cleaned up: the Consistency setting runs from "Keep every mark" to "Fully tidied".
- Plates, badges and screen UI locked to the original
- Car kept in its real location, never restaged
- "Keep every mark" setting for used vehicles
- Original always one click away for comparison
- Different settings for exterior, interior, new and used
FAQ
Common questions
Only if you set it to. The Consistency setting decides how much surface tidying happens; for used vehicles we recommend "Keep every mark" so scratches and wear stay visible. Misrepresenting a vehicle's condition is against our Terms, and bad for trust.
No. Pre-Owned OS keeps the car where it was photographed and only cleans up light, reflections, framing and clutter. To place a car in a showroom, use First Look OS or your own virtual showroom.
JPEG, PNG, WebP or GIF, up to 4 MB each and 48 per vehicle. Phone photos straight from the camera work fine.
Pre-Owned OS is part of every vehicle image set in your package. There's nothing extra to pay per photo.
Yes. Save named presets per dealership in Settings, or roll one configuration out across every rooftop in your group.
