A Dutch vehicle information platform helping motorists research cars, understand vehicle data, and make more informed decisions.
Published

KentekenKompas is a Dutch automotive information platform developed to make vehicle data and practical car-related knowledge easier to access and understand.
Using a Dutch vehicle registration number, visitors can explore available vehicle information, including technical specifications, registration details, and inspection-related data.
The platform combines information from available public vehicle data sources with clear explanations, research tools, and practical automotive guidance.
Beyond individual vehicle lookups, KentekenKompas provides resources to help motorists evaluate used cars, understand ownership expenses, and compare different vehicles.
Visitors can explore automotive model guides, purchasing checklists, and information about road taxes, fuel expenses, vehicle specifications, and other aspects of car ownership.
The platform aims to provide more than isolated technical details. By placing automotive information into a practical context, KentekenKompas helps users make better-informed vehicle-related decisions.
The public website serves Dutch motorists, used-car buyers and owners who want to turn a registration number into useful questions about a vehicle. Its model-level knowledge is also available to developers through a separate public API.
Vehicle registrations contain useful facts, but individual fields do not explain what a buyer should check next. KentekenKompas brings available public vehicle data together with definitions, model context and practical inspection questions.
The product’s value is in making evidence easier to interpret: what is known, where it comes from and what remains uncertain. It helps prepare a viewing, compare vehicles and discuss maintenance with a seller or garage without presenting incomplete data as a guarantee.

Public Knowledge API / MCP
The KentekenKompas Public Knowledge API gives developers read-only access to public vehicle model knowledge, vehicle terminology, comparison relationships, and source information. It can be used in websites, analyses, and information assistants without authentication. This API provides model-level knowledge; individual registration-number lookups are outside its scope.
The public API is anonymous and read-only. MCP clients connect using Streamable HTTP at https://api.kentekenkompas.nl/mcp. Follow the human-readable documentation below for setup, scope and limitations. Registration-number lookup is outside this developer surface.

Public RDW vehicle data is a starting point; the platform also publishes derived model knowledge and editorial guidance. Its methodology distinguishes official facts, derived information and editorial interpretation. It is independent of RDW.
It does not provide personal owner information, accident or insurance-claim histories, a complete maintenance file, market valuations, battery-test results or a purchase guarantee. An APK signal is not a substitute for a physical inspection.
Vehicle coverage and freshness vary. Fuel-price context can be unavailable when current source data is absent. Model-level API knowledge cannot establish the condition of an individual car.
