Product process
AntiqScope is built for a practical first pass. Photograph the item, review a structured result, then decide whether the piece belongs in your saved collection, needs another scan, or deserves deeper research before you buy, sell, or appraise it.
See the scan journey
The app flow is straightforward: photograph the item, review a structured result, then keep the piece in your collection or continue with premium access when you want unlimited scans and deeper guidance.
Best first shot
Whole item, front-facing
Optional second shot
Marks, base, or damage
Start with one clear photo of the item front, then add a close-up if you want extra context on marks, wear, or details.
Victorian Silverplate Tea Service
Silver & Metalware
Why this result
The ornate floral engraving, footed form, and silverplate finish point to a late-Victorian tea service rather than sterling.
Caution before you price it
Silverplate wear, dents, and missing pieces can reduce value quickly.
AntiqScope returns a probable type, era, material hints, confidence band, and a practical value range in one readable result.

Unlimited scans with premium
Deeper value guidance, saved finds tools, and priority support on weekly ($6.99/week) or yearly ($49.99/year).
Use the 3 free scans to test promising pieces, then subscribe for unlimited scans, deeper value guidance, and saved finds tools.
The first result is meant to be immediately useful: identify the likely type, read the era and material clues, and check whether the value range makes the item worth more attention. When a piece looks promising, save it and keep building a personal bank of finds instead of treating every scan like a one-off guess.
Result anatomy
Serious users usually want more than a homepage summary. The result is meant to separate the parts you can move on immediately from the parts that still need caution.
The first job is to sort what you are holding into a likely type so your next research step starts in the right category.
Shape, finish, wear, and visible details help AntiqScope return era and material hints that are easier to act on than a generic guess.
The confidence band tells you how strongly the visible signals line up with similar references. Higher confidence means the photo gives cleaner signals. Lower confidence means you should slow down and collect more detail.
The value range is a research aid based on visual data and similar item references. It is there to guide your next move, not replace a formal appraisal or guarantee resale value.
