Problem
Collectible card owners and marketplaces rely on manual grading services that require mailing cards, incur per-card fees, and involve multi‑week turnaround times, limiting the speed and scalability of buying, selling, and inventory management.
Solution
CardMatrix offers an AI‑driven grading service accessible via a simple REST API that returns structured JSON with a card’s grade, detected defects, and a confidence score. Users submit front and back images captured with any camera; the model analyzes high‑resolution details to identify scratches, edge wear, centering issues, and surface damage. Results are delivered in under three seconds, enabling real‑time integration into listing pipelines, inventory systems, or mobile apps without the need for physical shipping. The service scales to thousands of cards per day, providing repeatable, consistent grades that can be automatically sorted into marketplace condition buckets.
Target Audience
Primary customers are online card marketplaces, collector‑focused mobile or web applications, and inventory management platforms that need automated, real‑time card condition assessment.
