Questions.
"ChatGPT is free."
It doesn't know your car or your estimate. This reads the paper in your hand, looks up the hours for your engine, and pulls what the same car sold for near you. It shows you where its number came from.
"I have a guy."
Good. Ask your guy for the number, then tap this and see if they match. If they match, you have a price you can trust. If they don't, you have a question to ask him.
"How much can I use it?"
As much as you want. The card comes with a full year of unlimited Kamochi from the day you activate it, so you never count minutes.
"What if it's wrong?"
It shows its work. You see what the same car sold for, the hours, and the part prices. Take that to the shop or the adjuster and ask them to show theirs.
"Is this AI?"
Yes. It's built by an appraiser who did this for ten years. It doesn't touch your car. It reads the paper and shows you the hours, the prices, and what the same car sold for. It can be wrong, which is why it shows its work.
"Does it ask before it does anything?"
Always, for anything that costs you money or puts your name somewhere. It will ring round shops and price parts on its own, because that costs you nothing. Buying a part, booking a bay, giving a shop your number, it comes back and asks first, every time. You can see what it did and what it is about to do.
"Does it keep working when I'm not using it?"
For the things worth watching, yes. A recall posted against your car, a part you asked it to find coming back in stock, the market moving on a car you said you might sell. It tells you when something changes. It does not act on any of it without asking.
"How is this different from a chatbot?"
A chatbot answers and stops. This one goes and does the next bit: hears the noise, reads the estimate, finds the part, calls the shops, books the appointment. And it knows your car, what it is, what you have already had done, what you were told last time, so you are not starting from scratch every time something rattles.
What phones work?
iPhone XR and newer read the card with nothing installed: hold it to the top with the screen on. Android needs the screen on and unlocked, NFC on in Settings, and the card at the middle of the back. Thick metal cases block it. If the tap fails, scan the code on the back.
Do I need an app?
No. Tap the card, or scan the code, and Kamochi opens in your browser.
What does $100 get me?
The card, a full year of unlimited Kamochi, and up to two cars. Use it as much as you want for the whole year.
Does buying a card start a subscription?
No. Nothing renews and nothing charges you without asking. You pay once for the card and the year.
Does the card expire?
Your year of access starts the day you activate the card, not the day it arrives, so keep it in the glovebox until you need it. Your cars and history stay on your account.
Shipping and tax?
Shipping is free and the card arrives in 3 to 7 business days. Sales tax is added at checkout based on your address, and you see the total before you pay.
Can I start before the card arrives?
Yes. We email you a code when you buy. Use it on the start page and the card follows in the mail.
What can the card do?
One card does it all: check if a repair or claim price is fair, and pull a written value for the car itself with live and sold comps that you can send to a buyer or an adjuster.
