Pretrained computer vision classifier

Identify motorcycle make by seat with one API call.

A pretrained motorcycle make by seat classifier that sorts an image into one of 10 categories — what make of motorcycle it is. Use the motorcycle make by seat API immediately, no training required, then adapt it to your own data when you need more.

Call the motorcycle make by seat API

Once you've added this classifier to your console, you get your own copy of it behind your own endpoint. Invoke it with any HTTP client:

curl

curl -X POST "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NYCKEL_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"data": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"}'

Python

import requests

# Get an access token: https://www.nyckel.com/docs/api/overview/authentication/
token = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

response = requests.post(
    "https://www.nyckel.com/v1/functions/YOUR_FUNCTION_ID/invoke",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + token},
    json={"data": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"},
)
print(response.json())

Example response

{
  "labelName": "Aprilia",
  "labelId": "label_...",
  "confidence": 0.92
}

Under the hood

Model type
Nyckel-trained

Trained on a Nyckel-curated dataset covering 10 motorcycle make by seat categories, served on Nyckel's own infrastructure — your image stays on Nyckel.

Input
Image

Send an image URL or file to the invoke endpoint; the response is a label with a confidence score.

Make it yours
Adaptable

Clone it, then correct predictions and add your own samples in the console — Nyckel retrains automatically, turning this into a custom model tuned to your data.

More than a demo: this page is one of thousands of pretrained functions on Nyckel, an ML classification platform. You can invoke classifiers by API, review predictions, correct labels, collect samples from production traffic, and promote any pretrained function to a private custom model — without changing your integration.

Where teams use motorcycle make by seat classification

Insurance Risk Assessment

Insurance companies can utilize the motorcycle make by seat identifier to accurately classify motorcycles during policy underwriting. By identifying the make based on seat style, insurers can better assess risk profiles and adjust premiums accordingly.

Market Research Analysis

Businesses in the motorcycle industry can leverage this function to analyze consumer trends related to motorcycle seat designs. By categorizing makes based on seating, companies can tailor their product offerings to meet the identified preferences in specific market segments.

Stolen Vehicle Recovery

Law enforcement agencies can use the motorcycle make by seat identifier to assist in recovering stolen motorcycles. By accurately identifying the make through visual features, authorities can streamline efforts to trace and return stolen vehicles to their owners.

Automated Inventory Management

Dealerships can implement this identifier in their inventory management systems to automatically classify motorcycles based on seat design. This would simplify stock organization, improve search functionality, and enhance sales processes for both staff and customers.

Consumer Recommendations

E-commerce platforms can utilize the motorcycle make by seat identifier to enhance their recommendation systems. By understanding which makes correlate with specific seat designs, they can recommend similar motorcycles, enhancing user experience and potentially increasing sales.

Custom Motorcycle Design

Custom motorcycle builders can benefit from this function by integrating it into their design tools. This allows builders to suggest the appropriate make based on seat configurations, leading to more personalized and appealing customizations for clients.

Event Registration and Management

Motorcycle event organizers can use the identifier to streamline registration processes. By categorizing attendees' motorcycles by make and seat type, organizers can better plan layout, amenities, and competitions tailored to varied motorcycle types at events.

Common questions

What's the difference between a zero-shot and a Nyckel-trained classifier?

A zero-shot classifier uses a large foundation model's general knowledge to pick between your labels — no task-specific training, so new or edited labels work immediately. A Nyckel-trained classifier has been trained on labeled examples and runs on Nyckel's own infrastructure, which typically makes it faster, cheaper per call, and more accurate on data that resembles its training set. The "Under the hood" section on this page shows which kind this classifier is, and any classifier can be adapted into a trained one by adding your own examples.

How do I know whether this will work for my application?

Honestly: we can't know in advance — it depends on your data stream and how closely it resembles what this classifier has seen. The reliable way to find out is to measure it on your own data: start invoking the classifier with real traffic, or upload and annotate a set of images in the console — make sure they look like your production data, not idealized examples. Nyckel's evaluation metrics then show you exactly how it performs on that data before you rely on it.

What happens when it makes a mistake?

No classifier is perfect, so Nyckel is built around the correction loop: invokes can be captured for review, you confirm or correct predictions in the console, and corrections become training data. Over time the model adapts to your data distribution — accuracy on your traffic improves with use rather than staying fixed.

Do I need training data to get started?

No. This motorcycle make by seat classifier works out of the box — clone it into your console and you'll have your own API endpoint in under a minute. Training data only enters the picture when you want to adapt it: your corrected predictions and uploaded samples improve the model, and you can also edit the label set to match your needs.

What does it cost to try?

Trying the classifier on this page is free with no signup. Cloning it requires a free account, and the free tier covers your first API calls each month — see nyckel.com/pricing for current limits and paid tiers.
