Take a photo of an autograph and get an AI report on who probably signed it. How it works: - Take one clear photo of the signed item, or choose one from your library - The AI suggests the likely signer, the item and its condition, an AI authenticity assessment, an estimated value range, and which authenticator to use - Every result is marked as an AI-generated identification Features: - AI photo identification for autographs and signed memorabilia - Collection: save the identifications you want to keep - History: every identification you have made - Gallery: browse what other collectors have photographed - Add your own notes to an identification - Share an identification with a link IMPORTANT: AI identifications, authenticity assessments, and value estimates are for general information only — they are not official appraisals, authentication, or expertization. Always verify important details with a qualified third-party authenticator before buying, selling, or valuing an autograph.

CashGuard helps you identify banknotes from around the world and learn the genuine security features that distinguish real currency — all on your iPhone. Point your camera at a banknote and CashGuard recognizes the currency in seconds. Then it walks you, step by step, through the real security checks for that note: the watermark, the security thread, colour-shifting ink, raised printing, holograms and more. Tap each feature off as you confirm it by hand. FEATURES - Instant currency identification using your camera - 38 currencies from across the globe — USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, INR, JPY, CNY and many more - A hands-on "check it by hand" guide for every currency - Full denomination details with colours and portraits - A searchable worldwide currency library - Manual selection when you'd rather browse than scan - Learn section with general counterfeit-awareness tips PRIVATE BY DESIGN Camera frames are processed entirely on your device. Nothing is stored, and nothing is uploaded. IMPORTANT CashGuard is an educational tool. It cannot certify that a banknote is genuine or legal tender, and it is not a financial or legal authority. For official verification, always rely on your bank or the issuing central bank.
