# ALPR Vue: Read License Plates Directly in Browser

> ALPR Vue reads vehicle license plates from your camera, photos, or videos. No server, no account, and works offline after the first load.

Welcome to ALPR Vue, a free browser-based tool for automatic license plate recognition. Whether you manage parking access, track a vehicle fleet, run facility security, or simply need to extract a plate number from a photo or video, ALPR Vue lets you do it directly on your device — no account, no server, and no data ever leaves your phone or computer.

## No account, no server, works offline

ALPR Vue runs the AI models directly in your browser using WebAssembly. After the first time the page loads and downloads the models, the app works completely offline. Your images and video frames are never uploaded — all processing happens on your own device.

<Note>
  ALPR Vue is optimized for **European license plates**. Detection accuracy may be lower for plates from other regions.
</Note>

## Try it without a car nearby

The app includes **10 sample images** and **3 sample videos** built into the gallery so you can explore all features without needing a vehicle in front of you. Open the sample gallery from the upload screen to get started immediately.
