fast-alpr: Open-Source High-Performance License Plate Recognition Framework

tom_doerr · x · 2026-08-11

fast-alpr is an open-source Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) framework focused on high performance and customizability.

Core Architecture: It uses fast ONNX models by default, integrating fast-plate-ocr (for OCR) and open-image-models (for license plate detection).
Flexible Extension: The decoupled architecture allows developers to easily swap out the default detection or OCR models to fit different use cases.
Easy to Use: Provides out-of-the-box pre-trained models and a simple API. The project has currently garnered over 745 stars on GitHub.
