Loading price intelligence...Antique appraisal app
Free antique appraisal app: photograph an antique and its maker mark or backstamp to get a market-based value range with comparable listings. Android and web.
Photograph the piece and, separately, its maker mark, backstamp, label or hallmark. PriceSnap identifies what it can, searches for comparable listings and returns a value range with the evidence shown. It is a free market-value check, not a certified appraisal, and it tells you when a piece deserves a specialist.
Photo scan
Capture visible labels, marks, condition, and model signals.
Manual lookup
Use exact names, codes, sizes, and condition when you already know them.
Actionable result
See comps, value range, seller notes, and next steps in one flow.
Choosing an antique app
Antique appraisal apps fall into three groups: expert services where you pay per item and a specialist replies within days, identifier apps that match a photo to a catalog, and sold-price archives that need a subscription. PriceSnap is a free fourth option for the first pass: identify, find comparable listings, decide whether the piece justifies a paid opinion.
Yes, for a market-value estimate. PriceSnap is free to try with no account and free on Google Play for Android; on iPhone it runs in Safari. It returns a value range with the comparable listings behind it. It is not a certified appraisal, which insurers, courts and estate executors require from a credentialed appraiser.
Paid expert appraisal services
Per-item fee, human opinion
A specialist reviews your photos and writes an opinion, typically within days. Better for attribution questions and for pieces the free scan already flagged as valuable.
Sold-price archives
Subscription research
Multi-year archives of realized prices for provenance and research. See the WorthPoint alternative page for how they compare with a live scan.
Certified appraisers
Signed document
Required for insurance scheduling, estates, donations and disputes. Look for ASA, ISA or AAA credentials. The scan tells you which pieces are worth the fee.
PriceSnap
Free first pass
Photo identification, maker-mark reading, comparable listings and a range, in minutes, with the limits stated on every result. No feed from auction houses or dealer marketplaces; check those yourself for anything you plan to sell or insure.
Works in your browser on any phone; no download or account needed to try it.
Scan an antique nowA photo can identify a maker from a legible mark, place a pattern or style, and show obvious condition issues. It cannot reliably separate a period piece from a later reproduction, detect restoration, confirm a signature or judge regional demand. The app states these limits on the result and holds back a number when fewer than two usable listings remain, rather than manufacturing a precise figure.
Treat a high estimate as a reason to get a specialist involved, and a low one as a reason not to spend an appraisal fee on the piece.
PriceSnap is free to try without an account, free on Google Play for Android, and a free account adds a larger monthly allowance, saved collections and price watches. There is no iOS app yet; on iPhone, use the web scanner in Safari and add it to your home screen. Nothing it returns is a certified appraisal.
Install the Android app from Google Play or open pricesnap.ai in any browser, including Safari on iPhone, and choose the antiques scanner.
One photo of the whole object, one of the maker mark, backstamp or hallmark.
Check the maker, pattern or period the app suggests and correct it if you know better.
See the value range, the comparable listings and their evidence labels, and the note on what a photo could not settle.
Sell, keep or, if the range is high, book a certified appraiser with the scan as your starting point.
