Read full description

Honest rock, mineral, and crystal identification that tells you when it's not sure. Snap any specimen for an AI identification with a confidence bar, top-2 alternatives, Mohs hardness, and a built-in 30-second field test to verify what you found. Built for rockhounds, crystal buyers, and families — not generic "stone ID" apps that hand back the same name for every photo. ▸ IDENTIFICATION YOU CAN ACTUALLY TRUST We surface uncertainty instead of hiding it. • Confidence bars on every scan — green / yellow / red so you know when to pack it home vs. verify • Top-2 alternatives always shown with their own confidence scores • Dyed howlite, heat-treated citrine, glass imitations — flagged automatically so retail scams don't slip past • Mohs hardness with a household tool reference (fingernail 2.5, steel nail 5.5, glass 5.5) ▸ VERIFY IN 30 SECONDS Every result card has a one-tap walk-through for the most diagnostic field test. • Hardness scratch with coins, nails, and glass • Streak on unglazed ceramic tile • Magnet test for magnetite / hematite • White-vinegar fizz test for calcites, limestone, marble • Confirmed tests add a verified badge to your collection ▸ THREE MODES, ONE SCAN Same AI result — the framing that fits you. • Geologist — hardness, streak, crystal system, formula, rock type, formation context • Crystal — traditional chakra + associations + care notes (clearly labeled "traditional belief, not scientific") • Kids — one-sentence summary, hardness in stars, fun fact, metaphysical content hidden ▸ COLLECTION THAT REMEMBERS Every scan saved locally. Filter by rocks, minerals, crystals, fossils, or unverified. Export the whole collection as CSV. ▸ FREE / PREMIUM Free includes 5 AI scans (lifetime), last 10 specimens in collection, one field test per scan, and ad-supported browsing.
