Founder-operated approach

How the grading analysis works

Each analysis reviews the uploaded front and back images for centering, corners, edges, and surface condition. TCGrader provides photo-based AI assessments, not official authentication or appraisal, and results depend on the submitted photos.

GPT-4o Vision Disclaimer

TCGrader uses OpenAI’s GPT-4o Vision model for image-based grading analysis. While this technology is highly advanced, it has known limitations that may affect accuracy or interpretation. These include:

• Suboptimal performance with non-Latin text (e.g., Japanese, Korean).
• Difficulty reading small or rotated text within images.
• Challenges understanding graphs or visual styles (dashed, dotted lines, etc.).
• Approximate spatial reasoning and object counting accuracy.
• Resized images may slightly affect proportions and fine detail recognition.
