CoremanNet Mobile App has been nominated for the Automechanika Frankfurt Innovation Award 2026
C-ECO’s CoremanNet ist nominated with its Mobile Workshop Solution – AI‑driven identification and valorisation decision for used parts in the category „Circular Economy and Remanufacturing“.
About the App
The CoremanNet Mobile App offers innovative solutions: As a central part of the CoremanNet Suite, it is specifically designed for workshops and warehouses. With AI-driven core recognition, the app identifies cores directly from a smartphone photo.
Algorithms analyse shape, connectors, housing, and surface structure, matching features with a learning database. This enables the detection of damaged parts or those without identification labels - a common problem in daily workshop practice.
Users digitally register and identify cores directly at the vehicle, with no need for extra hardware or inquiries to wholesalers. The app instantly informs about return eligibility, expected credit, or, if no return option is available, the residual value of the part. Guided pre-evaluation helps assess the condition and facilitates the decision to return and valorisation.
Returns can be initiated directly in the app. Synchronization with the CoremanNet Portal makes the data available for further processing or analysis. Thus, the app becomes a mobile interface for a continuous, AI-supported core return process, delivering expert knowledge directly to the workshop. It optimally supports all participants in implementing a sustainable circular economy - efficient, transparent, and market-oriented.
