Alien & Cryptid Scanner is a novelty app from the (fictional) Department of Unexplained Phenomena. Snap a photo and our analysts classify the subject in seconds: an extraterrestrial visitor, or a cryptid hiding in plain sight - a Bigfoot-class forest hominid, a Mothman-type aerial cryptid, a chupacabra, a lake serpent, and more. Every scan generates a shareable CLASSIFIED ENCOUNTER CERTIFICATE - a redacted, official-looking dossier with a species name, a Latin classification, your coordinates, a case number, a confidence score, and analyst notes. Built to screenshot and post.
