It varies by category and by how much the photo shows. Marked, well-documented categories like silver, coins and known ceramics do better than unmarked furniture. Every result carries a confidence level — read it.

Ceramics, porcelain, glassware, sterling silver, jewellery, watches, coins, stamps, paintings, prints, sculpture, furniture, lighting, textiles, militaria, toys, books and ephemera, across Georgian through Mid-Century Modern and contemporary collectibles.

It uses marks where they're visible, so photograph the base or hallmark as well as the object. A clear shot of a mark improves the result more than anything else you can do.

The app is free with daily scans included. Pro removes the daily limit and adds unlimited collections, detailed insights, PDF export and the priority appraisal model.

Yes — modern collectibles, mid-century pieces and ordinary secondhand items all return a result, which is useful when you're deciding what to keep from a house clearance.
