CONSISTENCY SHOULDN'T BE OPTIONAL.

Traditional card grading depends heavily on human judgment, creating inconsistencies in grade, turnaround time, and customer experience. ARC combines computer vision with expert review to deliver a more transparent and repeatable grading standard.

01

AI-Assisted Analysis

Computer vision measures surface, centering, corners, and edges through a consistent, repeatable process.

02

Expert Quality Control

Every AI result is reviewed by a trained grader before a card is certified.

03

Transparent Grading Report

04

Global Submission System

EVERY DETAIL. MEASURED.

ARC uses high-resolution imaging and computer vision to identify surface defects, measure centering, and evaluate corners and edges. Every result is reviewed through ARC's quality-control process before certification.
