Point your camera at a ring, chain, coin, bar or nugget and Gold Identifier names the piece in seconds, with an estimated karat range, what its hallmarks mean, and what it would be worth at today's gold rate.
Point, snap, and know what you're holding. Gold Identifier turns a photo into a plain-English answer: for jewelers, prospectors, pawn buyers, collectors and anyone who just inherited a box of jewelry.
Capture a new photo or pick one from your library, then tap Identify Now. That's the whole workflow.
Every identification names the item, shows a confidence score, and explains what it is, how it forms and what to look for.
Keep a private gallery of gold photos inside the app and re-scan any of them whenever you want a second look.
No jeweler's loupe, no appointment, no guesswork. Here's how the app reads a piece of gold from a photo.
Photograph the item in bright, even light on a plain background: a ring, chain, coin, bar, nugget or a whole tray of pieces. Or pick a photo you already have.
The AI reads color and luster, surface texture, form and any hallmark stamps it can resolve, then matches them against a reference library of gold types, coins, bullion and jewelry styles.
See what the item most likely is with a confidence score, an estimated karat range, what the hallmark means, and what that weight and purity is worth at today's gold rate.
Identification is the start. The rest of the app is built for what you do next: decode the stamp, check the rate, work out the value, and keep a record.
Snap or upload a photo and the AI identifies the item (jewelry, coin, bar or natural nugget) in seconds, with a confidence score.
Get an estimated karat range (24K, 22K, 18K, 14K) plus color tone and type: yellow, white or rose gold.
Look up what 999, 916, 750, 585 and 375 mean, plus country assay marks and the purity standards behind them.
Track the current gold rate across multiple currencies so you always know what the market is doing before you trade.
Enter weight and purity to get the melt value in seconds: the fastest way to sanity-check a buyer's offer.
Browse global gold types, bullion coins, jewelry styles and hallmark patterns, with detail on purity standards and origins.
Save identified pieces into a personal inventory: useful for insurance records, estate work or tracking a hoard.
Every scan is kept in one organized list, so you can revisit an identification long after you took the photo.
Keep a dedicated in-app gallery of gold photos and re-scan any stored image instantly.
Practical, plain-English answers to the questions people actually ask about their gold, and how to get to an answer in seconds with the app.
