Stop guessing when it's due. AutoBrain checks every vehicle's rego daily, shows the current status on each vehicle card, and tells you the moment it's about to expire. Included on Enthusiast and Garage hosted plans.
A background job runs every night around midnight (your account timezone) and refreshes each vehicle's rego expiry from the state source. Open AutoBrain in the morning and the date on your vehicle card is already current — no manual refresh.
Every vehicle card carries a colour-coded rego status badge: green when current, amber inside the warning window, red the day it lapses. Tap the badge to drill into the state record and full vehicle details.
AutoBrain pings 30 days, 7 days and 1 day before rego expires, plus a separate alert the moment the state reports the registration as expired or unregistered. Mute any of them in Settings.
Already have a plate? Run the Rego Lookup tool directly from AutoBrain to pull make, model, VIN, body, colour, fuel type and current registration status — same backing service that runs the free rego lookup on the website.
NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT and NT — the lookup and daily refresh run through the state-by-state AutoBrain Rego Lookup service.
Lookups are scoped to your account, snapshots are written to your own vehicle record, and nothing is shared with other owners or used to train models. Self-hosted AutoBrain uses the same code path against your own rego-lookup-api.
Daily tracking, badges and notifications ride on the paid plans; the basic Rego Lookup tool (type a plate, get make / model / VIN / rego) is the free foundation underneath. Self-hosted AutoBrain gets the same code path against your own rego-lookup-api.
On-demand plate lookup from any Australian state. Returns VIN, body, colour, fuel and current rego status. No daily refresh, no badges, no notifications.
Daily expiry refresh, vehicle-card status badge, 30 / 7 / 1-day expiry notifications and expiry-state alerts. Rego Lookup included.
Everything in Enthusiast, scaled across up to 5 vehicles — every vehicle gets its own badge and its own notifications.
Enthusiast ($5.90/month or $59/year) and Garage ($11.90/month or $119/year). Free keeps the basic on-demand Rego Lookup tool only — no daily refresh, no badge, no notifications.
Once a day, around midnight in your account timezone. The AutoBrain backend queries the state rego feeds (through the AutoBrain Rego Lookup service) and writes a fresh status snapshot to your vehicle record.
Expiry heads-up at 30 days, 7 days and 1 day out, plus a separate alert the moment the state flips your rego to expired or unregistered. Mute any of them under Settings → Notifications.
Every Australian state and territory — NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT and NT. The lookup tool and the daily job route through the state-by-state AutoBrain Rego Lookup service.
Yes. Garage plans cover up to 5 vehicles; every vehicle gets its own badge and its own notifications. Shared ownership rules (who gets the alerts) follow the same logic as the rest of AutoBrain's vehicle-sharing.
No. Lookups are scoped to your account, snapshots are stored against your own vehicle record, and nothing is shared with other owners or used to train models. Self-hosted instances keep every lookup on your own rego-lookup-api.
Try any paid plan free for 7 days. Cancel before the trial ends and you won't be charged.
Self-hosting? Rego Status uses the open rego-lookup-api plus the same daily Celery beat the rest of AutoBrain runs — wire your key and enable the rego refresh beat on your own infra.
