Why pre-screen before submitting?
Avoid expensive surprises
PSA submissions start at $20+ per card. Pre-screening catches flaws that would tank the grade before you pay shipping, insurance, and service fees.
Prioritize your best pulls
When you have 50 cards to consider, AI grading helps you rank them by expected return so you submit the ones most likely to slab at 9 or above.
Learn what graders see
Sub-grade breakdowns teach you to spot centering shifts, corner wear, and surface issues — skills that make you a sharper buyer and seller over time.
Need more than 5 scans a day?
Credits start at $2.99. Pro is unlimited at $12.99/mo.
Credit packs never expire — buy once, use whenever. Pro unlocks batch grading, CSV export, and your full collection dashboard. Either way, you keep every sub-grade report forever.
Trust the breakdown
See what the model is looking for before you submit
Collectors trust grading more when the rubric is visible. These diagrams explain the four condition buckets that drive the result and help set realistic expectations before upload.
Criterion view
Centering
The model checks how evenly the printed borders sit left-to-right and top-to-bottom on the card face and back.
Even great-looking cards fall out of gem-mint territory when the border balance is visibly off. Centering is often the first fast rejection signal for modern submissions.
10
Looks very even at a glance.
9
Minor imbalance, still strong.
8
Clearly off-center but acceptable.
7
Obvious shift affects eye appeal.
6-
Heavy imbalance or tilt.
Criterion view
Corners
The model looks for whitening, soft tips, fraying, bends, and other visible damage at each corner.
Corners are brutal on both vintage and modern cards. A tiny soft corner can be the whole difference between a strong submission and an expensive mistake.
10
Sharp with no visible wear.
9
Tiny touch of wear only.
8
Light whitening or softness.
7
Noticeable wear on one or more corners.
6-
Blunting, bends, or heavy whitening.
Criterion view
Edges
The model checks perimeter wear, chipping, silvering, whitening, and rough cuts around the card border.
Edges expose handling damage fast. Different games print differently, but edge wear still kills top-end grades across the board.
10
Clean edge line throughout.
9
Very light edge wear.
8
Several small worn spots.
7
Visible whitening or roughness.
6-
Heavy chipping or broad wear.
Criterion view
Surface
The model looks for print lines, scratches, dents, stains, indentations, and gloss disruptions on the card front and back.
Surface flaws are easy to miss in bad lighting and expensive to discover after submission. Holo cards especially get punished here.
10
Clean surface with strong gloss.
9
Tiny print issue or faint mark.
8
Light scratching or print lines.
7
Visible defects affecting presentation.
6-
Dents, major scratches, or heavy wear.
