About SnapGradeAI

Built by collectors. For collectors.

We started SnapGrade after one too many PSA submissions came back as 7s. The math wasn't working — and there was no honest tool to predict what PSA would say.

What we stand for

Three principles we build around.

No made-up accuracy number

We don't quote an accuracy figure until real, user-reported PSA results back it — not a marketing-only "95% accuracy" claim with nothing behind it.

No subscriptions, no expiry

Credit-based pricing because card grading isn't a monthly subscription-shaped problem. Credits never expire — buy in 2024, use in 2030.

Refund on uncertainty

If the photos don't let the AI assess at least two of the four axes, the credit refunds automatically. We don't sell guesses.

Why this exists

The original team is three collectors and one machine-learning engineer. Between us we've submitted to PSA, BGS, CGC and SGC; we've been delighted by gem 10s and burned by surprise 7s; we've sold on eBay, Whatnot, Goldin and Discord auctions.

In 2023, after a particularly painful $1,200 PSA submission that came back averaging PSA 8 across the board, we decided to build the tool we wished existed: an AI that could tell us, before we shipped, which cards were actually worth submitting.

Today SnapGrade has graded 16,000+ cards (November 2026), from $1 commons to six-figure vintage Charizards.

Where we're going

Next: collecting real PSA results from users so we can publish an accuracy figure we can back, plus expanded TCG coverage.

We're bootstrapped and intend to stay that way — no VC, no subscription pressure, no incentive to lock you in. Just a tool that pays for itself the first time it catches a 7.

Common questions

Questions we hear all the time.

Who built SnapGradeAI?
A small team of collectors who got tired of paying PSA to find out a card was a 7.
Is SnapGradeAI affiliated with PSA, BGS or CGC?
No. We're an independent tool that predicts what those graders will say — we don't replace them and we're not formally associated with any of them.
How do you make money?
Credit pack sales. No subscriptions, no ads, no data sales. Credits range from $1 to $2 per pre-grade depending on pack size.
Can I work with you?
Yes — we're hiring carefully. Send a note to contact us with your background.
