Pretrained computer vision classifier

Identify wheel sizes with one API call.

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

Under the hood

Model type
Nyckel-trained

Trained on a Nyckel-curated dataset covering 10 wheel sizes 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 wheel sizes classification

Automotive Quality Control

This function can be integrated into the manufacturing process of vehicles to automatically identify and classify the wheel sizes used in car production. This ensures compliance with design specifications and helps prevent costly errors due to incorrect wheel installations.

E-Commerce Product Verification

Online retailers can utilize this function to verify the wheel sizes of products listed on their platforms. By ensuring accurate classifications, businesses can enhance customer satisfaction and reduce return rates caused by incorrect product descriptions.

Fleet Management Optimization

Fleet management companies can employ this function to monitor the sizes of wheels across their vehicle fleets. This data enables better maintenance scheduling and ensures vehicles operate under optimal conditions, reducing breakdowns and enhancing safety.

Tire Retail Inventory Management

Tire retailers can leverage the wheel size identification function to manage their inventory effectively. Accurate classification helps to streamline stock levels, matching tire stocks with the most common wheel sizes used by customers, thus improving inventory turnover.

Automotive Insurance Assessment

Insurance adjusters can use this function during assessments of accident-damaged vehicles to accurately classify wheel sizes. This information aids in making informed decisions regarding claims and helps in determining repair costs more accurately.

Automotive Market Research

Researchers can analyze the prevalence of various wheel sizes in vehicles through image classification. Such insights can inform product development strategies and marketing campaigns aimed at addressing the needs of different consumer segments.

Custom Wheel Design Validation

Custom wheel manufacturers can utilize this function to validate designs against existing wheel sizes in the market. By comparing their designs with the classified data, they can ensure compatibility with a broader range of vehicles before market launch.

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 wheel sizes 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.
