Scale AI turns your camera into a pocket smart scale and visual estimate tool. Point your phone at almost anything, pick a mode, and get a clear AI estimate in seconds—complete with a confidence level and honest safety notes. No physical scale, ruler, or measuring cup required. WEIGH ANYTHING Snap a photo and get an instant gram or ounce estimate for food, parcels, produce, hobby supplies, and everyday objects. Add a common reference item to the frame to help the AI gauge size and weight more accurately. ONE CAMERA, EIGHT MODES • Weigh Item – estimate object weight in grams or ounces • Measure Object – estimate length, width, and height • Get Volume – estimate liquid or container volume • Count Items – count similar items in a busy photo • Count Money – estimate a visible cash total • Estimate Value – get a rough market value • Identify Plant – recognize plant species with care notes • Identify Bug – identify insects and bugs CLEAR, HONEST RESULTS Every scan returns a structured estimate with a confidence level, helpful details, and caution notes—so you always know how much to trust a result. Scale AI is built for quick, everyday estimates, not precision measurement. KEEP YOUR HISTORY Past scans are saved locally so you can revisit and compare earlier estimates anytime. Filter by mode to find what you need fast. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account or sign-up required • Scan history and settings stay on your device • Photos are only sent for AI analysis when you capture or select an image and start a scan • No third-party ads and no cross-app advertising tracking METRIC OR IMPERIAL Switch between grams/centimeters/milliliters and ounces/inches/fluid ounces to match how you work. PRO ACCESS Pro unlocks higher scan limits and is managed securely through your Apple account. IMPORTANT Scale AI provides approximate AI estimates only. Results can be wrong and should not be used for medical, legal, financial, safety-critical, professional, regulated, or official decisions. Always confirm with a certified scale or qualified expert when accuracy matters.
