These current company tiers show why a fast condition check matters. Availability, value ceilings, and minimums still apply.
The current active PSA entry point while Value services remain paused.
A direct, no-minimum CGC tier for many sports and TCG cards.
SGC's current no-membership entry tier, especially relevant to sports cards.
TAG's listed entry tier is not currently orderable because of capacity.
The first TAG tier with limited rather than sold-out availability.
TAG Basic is sold out and PSA Value is paused. Compare services that can actually accept your card today.
The browser removes installation friction while keeping the role clear: condition guidance before professional grading.
CardGrade runs in a modern browser. Open the site on iPhone, Android, tablet, laptop, or desktop without waiting for a native download or managing another app update.
Start with phone photos, then review grading details on a larger screen. A web-based workflow keeps the same service accessible across device types.
The pre-screen analyzes visible card condition quickly enough to triage a batch before building a professional grading order.
Centering, corners, edges, and surface drive the report. Those same visible categories are central to why cards miss top professional grades.
CardGrade helps decide what may be worth submitting. PSA, CGC, SGC, TAG, and Beckett still provide physical authentication, hands-on inspection, encapsulation, and certification.
A web pre-screen reduces poor submission decisions, but professional fees, transport, image quality, and physical-only defects remain.
The app helps screen cards before third-party grading; it does not eliminate the company fee for cards you choose to submit.
Glare, blur, sleeves, shadows, and poor angles can hide defects. Clean, well-lit front and back images produce more useful pre-screening.
Professional grading still requires secure transit to and from the grading company after the app-based decision step.
Installing multiple grading apps can split reports and workflows. A browser-based tool avoids another device-specific install.
Some indentations, micro-scratches, alterations, and authenticity concerns require hands-on inspection and may not be visible in photos.
Before paying PSA, CGC, SGC, or TAG, know your likely grade in 60 seconds with AI pre-screening. The app adds a decision layer, not a substitute slab.
A clean-looking photo is not the same as a structured review of the four condition pillars.
Review the likely condition, then choose the grading company that fits the card and goal.
Yes. CardGrade is a web-based card grading app that runs in a browser rather than requiring an App Store or Play Store installation. It works on modern iOS, Android, tablet, and desktop browsers.
No. Open CardGrade.io in a browser, sign in, and use the capture workflow. A web-based experience also means updates are available without downloading a new app version.
CardGrade analyzes visible centering, corners, edges, and surface condition from submitted images. The result is a pre-screening estimate intended to help rank cards before professional submission.
The CardGrade pre-screen is designed to return a condition estimate in about 60 seconds after usable images are submitted. Retakes may be needed when glare, blur, sleeves, or framing obscure the card.
No. An app cannot replace physical authentication, alteration detection, professional handling, encapsulation, or a cert number. It is most useful before PSA, CGC, SGC, TAG, or Beckett.
Professional grading can cost from $15 to hundreds of dollars per card before shipping. A fast pre-screen helps remove obviously weak candidates and focus that budget on cards with a stronger condition case.
