Questions
How accurate is the diagnosis?+
Each result shows a confidence score. Low-confidence cases are re-checked by a stronger model and reviewed by our team. If the photos aren't enough, we tell you exactly what to shoot.
What if the DIY guide doesn't solve it?+
Your purchase includes the pro brief, so you can hand the job to a pro at no extra cost. If the diagnosis was clearly wrong, contact us for a refund.
Do I need an account?+
You can upload photos and see the diagnosis preview without one. We ask for an email when you unlock the guide or send a brief to pros.
Is my data private?+
Photos are used only to diagnose your problem and are never sold. You can delete a case at any time.
