Otomorph Launches IOTA Vehicle Passport App. But Where’s the On-Chain Proof?

French startup Otomorph has launched its Android application in early access, introducing a digital vehicle management platform that aims to make maintenance records verifiable through the IOTA blockchain.

Google Play lists November 3, 2026, as the latest update, with downloads currently in the “5+” category. The app offers invoice storage, maintenance reminders and an AI assistant powered by Google Gemini.

IOTA Integration Targets Verifiable Vehicle Histories

Otomorph plans to give vehicles decentralised digital identities, allowing owners to document maintenance histories and potentially share verified records with prospective buyers.

According to its privacy policy, onboarding involves creating a self-custody wallet, a decentralised identifier (DID) and a vehicle NFT. Vehicle information is stored in the cloud, while the vehicle identification number (VIN) serves as a unique database identifier.

Blockchain participation beyond initial setup is optional. Otomorph states in its terms:

“All blockchain write operations (anchoring records, notarizing documents) are entirely optional. You can use the App’s core features without using Web3.”

Whether vehicle NFTs are already being minted on the IOTA mainnet remains unclear. Public project information provides no identifiable transaction hashes, object IDs or wallet addresses for independent verification.

A formal partnership with the IOTA Foundation has not been publicly confirmed.

Otomorph offers a free subscription covering one vehicle and two maintenance records. Its €6.99 monthly Plus plan supports three vehicles and unlimited records. Both plans advertise vehicle NFTs.

Initially, the company is focusing on France, with further European expansion planned. An iOS application and additional hardware for real-time vehicle diagnostics are also on its roadmap.

EU Vehicle Passport Rules Set a Separate Standard

Otomorph’s proposed vehicle passport differs from the European Union’s mandatory Digital Circularity Vehicle Passport.

Under Regulation (EU) 2026/1738, vehicles entering the market within its scope must carry the EU passport from September 1, 2032. The regulation focuses on circularity, materials and end-of-life information rather than primarily documenting maintenance histories.

For used-car transactions, IOTA-based cryptographic hashes could help buyers verify whether maintenance documents match previously registered files.

Such verification would not independently establish whether a garage actually performed the stated work. That would require reliable issuer authentication and controlled access to vehicle records.

Otomorph was incorporated in Sartrouville, France, on June 30, 2026, with €1,000 in registered capital. Its incorporation notice names Rami Rezgui Raouaji as president.
