• Objective Grading: Provides an objective 1.0–10.0 condition grade for pre-owned garments using a published, weighted methodology.
• Verifiable Certificates: Issues shareable certificates that buyers can verify, building trust and reducing returns.
• AI-Powered Analysis: Utilizes Claude Vision AI to analyze garment photos across five weighted factors: fabric condition, structural integrity, cosmetic appearance, functional elements, and odor/cleanliness.
• Standardized Tiers: Assigns grades to one of seven standardized condition tiers, from New With Tags (NWT) to Poor.
• Comprehensive Breakdown: Offers detailed reports with factor-by-factor scores and an AI-written condition summary.
• Garment Passport: Creates a shareable provenance timeline for each garment, tracking its history and grade.
• Verified Seller Profiles: Allows sellers to build a public profile showcasing their grading volume and average grade, with an embeddable badge for listings.
• Buyer Guarantee: Offers a condition-backed guarantee, enabling buyers to file mediation claims if an item is materially not as graded.
• Integrated Workflow (FlipDesk): Combines grading with sourcing, cataloging, listing, selling, and reconciliation tools for a complete reseller workflow. Features include ScoutAI for comps, AutoLister for AI-written listings, repricing rules, and consignment management.
